    I don't like Chartwell. The café is not up to much. Though the house is amazing.

    As we are based round Sidcup, we are thinking of Batemans. Had a great day out there - though only been the once. I seem to remember it involves going down the A21 which can be painful - though I want to see how they are getting on with the bypass just South of Tonbridge.
    If you have all day rather than just the afternoon do Bodiam castle first to wear out Baby BP then Batemans afterwards.

        Oh no! Your profile rank dropped 0%
        Hang on, no it hasn't. I'm now the number 4 profile in the list of 98..... And I shouldn't be that high in the first place....

          Have you been to the dentist then? What did they say?

            Bodiam castle is a very good one! Top tip! We will think about that.

              This was supposed to be a check-up, scheduled before the abscess developed. As the dodgy tooth is going to need a root canal, she decided to open it up and drain it so the infection has a chance to clear up properly. So that was fun

                Agree.

                there are multiple play areas there with different age ranges for Baby BPs.

                Food is very good.

                The house is stunning, try to arrange to see it outside at night.

                plenty of walking.
                Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.

                  I have had 2 root canals. As I don't like gimp masks I find them unpleasant. Second time I was in so much pain I have to go under a general anaesthetic. I hope it goes well.

                  Any timescales? I don't want this to affect Monday links!

                    Two weeks on Thursday, so hopefully I should have recovered by Monday

                      And plenty of time for you to decide on the big lunch you will have just beforehand!

                      Good luck old chap!
