We awoke to a slightly grey and muggy day and made the very sensible decision to give Flynn a walk in the cool woods. There was a footpath sign to somewhere whose name I’ve forgotten – either I’m getting dementia or it was in Hungarian. Let’s say it was Recem-völgyi Kút, for example. As we…

I don’t think Rog mentioned, but we spent the night at the campsite at Esztergom on the Danube, west of Budapest. As Jones is now so well equipped in the bathroom department, we can’t review the facilities, but the site itself is leafy and the young man at reception is both easy on the eye…

Well, more accurately, outside it. J Jour had arrived, and we set off from Cornholme with the idea of arriving a couple of hours early for our 2pm appointment. No harm in having extra chivvying time, I thought. We stopped to buy sandwiches at a motorway service station. As we walked back to Denby, neither…
