Few weeks ago me and the Mrs went to Miller and Carter restaurant in Plymouth. If anybody doesn’t know Miller and Carter they are a slightly upmarket chain. I wasn’t paying I might add as I’d been given a voucher by my daughter for 66th birthday. Just opposite was a party of about 10 people out celebrating someone’s birthday and every one of them were thumbing their phones on social media. Nobody talking to each other and this went on for the time it took to serve their meals. What’s going on.

I was out at dinner last night with the fellow members of our pub quiz team spending our winnings on a Chinese. Not a phone in sight and conversation flowed freely round the table (mostly jokes at my expense!). This is how a social evening should be (minus all the jokes). A lot of gossip from the ladies, mind you.

A lot of gossip from the ladies, mind you. Virtually every group of friends I go out with are phone free.... it's not that difficult. The only time they come out is to check that the kids are not after them.
Now my kids are a completely different story although my daughter can leave the damn thing in her bag over a meal.

When pushed on the subject she said the hotel literature had one star for central heating, one star for en suite facilities, one star because they offered evening meals.........  |

The problem with going down to Blackpool. Hope i dont offend anyone. I went as a kid sometimes usually around when they would switch the lights on. It seemed great flashing colourful lights hot doughnuts maybe a trip to the pleasure beech.
I went a couple of years ago and thought god this is one word Tackey. Quite a few of the B&Bs seemed to have lost there charm. People selling light up things for kids that would break in an instance. Some quite rough people.
The best part about it was a cracking Chippy. Fish Chips and Peas in a box. Go and sit by the sea and eat.
Maybe as a kid it has a certain charm.
To be fair i bet on a weekend like this it would be quite nice with it being by the sea.
