We had a great break to Budapest; if you've never been I highly recommend. Whilst the weather was a tad hot for me, blistering 30 degrees, the city itself is an eclectic mix of history, culture and a bohemian style which I wasn't expecting but so glad is there. We go...
Time to catch up. I have been remiss in blogging, note to self must try harder and make the time, no excuses. Similar to many who "retire" you wonder how you ever managed to fit work in, I'm happy to say.
