An Unexpected Cute Visitor

One night, I found a praying mantis on the top of the flaskie and it was my very first time to see this insect so I took the chance to take some photos and share it with you.

Here “He” is.

So cute isn’t he? And I think he likes it when I took photos of him cos he often stare at the camera as always.

99p Flake Ice Cream

99p Flake Ice cream is a soft serve ice cream (sundae we call it in the PI) in an ice cream cone with a Cadbury Flake inserted in it. It also has strawberry or raspberry topping sauce sometimes called as Monkey’s Blood. This is one of the reasons why I so love going out every Saturday/Sunday when I was in England. You can see ice cream caravans anywhere in the country specially on markets, shopping centres, seaside resorts and some landmarks and tourists spots. It inspires me more to go out aside from shopping and seeing the countryside of The Midlands. LOL!!

Anyways, here are some photos of my ever favourite 99p Flake Ice cream.

Red Lion, Avebury, Wiltshire

When we visited Avebury to see the stones and we had lunch in a pub called Red Lion Inn. It is located on the A361 between Swindon and Devizes and just few minutes walk from the Avebury Stone Circle which is known as one of the Worlds Heritage Site and just half a mile away from the National Trust Museum. Very convenient location if you’re on the place looking for something to eat, unwind relax and wait for friends and family while looking round the old stones and museum.

The 86 feet Well

The 86 feet Well, Picture 2

It was nearly dinner time and the pub starts to get full packed by locals and tourists. We luckily found a table inside the pub next to an 86 feet well that is around 400 years old. They are the only inn in the whole world positioned with inn a stone circle. You need to go to the bar/till to order the food and of course pay after ordering so my boyfriend done that and brought back some beer with him for the two of us. I ordered Cheese and Bacon Burger for £8.59 and he had platter of veggies, an apple, brown bread, ham, some dips and a pie.

Our FOOD. Hungy me much that time, can't wait! LOL!

Heading of the Lunch Menu

The service was quite slow but understandable as it was around dinner time and lots of orders are ahead of us so we just enjoyed our drink, waited for our food and of course had a little chat. Not that long, the food arrived and as always, we munched it because we are really starving and finished it all with no crumbs of bread or leftovers in the dish.

Red Lion Pub in Avebury, Wiltshire

It was a nice experience for me to try to dine in a traditional Old English inns/pub. It was a memorable day not just I had a tour around one of the worlds heritage sites but also a privilege to try an English food in a very old well-known pub chain in England.
