    That's what puts me off package holidays in developing countries.

    Hope it wasn't too bad; you'd probably have been better off eating street food.

    TFA

    Last night: Hairdressers, meal at fave chinese and then cooking a Boeuf Bourguignonne for tonight's tasting
    Today: cooking and baking (tarte tartin, scones and mash with enough butter to cause a coronary), blogging
    Tonight: off to a wine tasting at a friends who has very expensive tastes in wine, so far there's a 2003 Batard Montrachet, 1974 Lafite and 1996 Dom Perignon on the menu and god only knows what else he'll drag out of the cellar. I'm not complaining!
    Tomorrow: sleeping off the effects of tonight and then taunting an Argentinian friend during tomorrow's match
