>>Greater Rissington<<

That would be Great (no 'er') Rissington and a fine base though you will have to drive to any meals other the Lamb Inn

I had a friend who lived there and stayed with her a couple of times years ago.

Ah, yes, Great Rissington...sorry, we've been joking about the names and calling places lesser, greater, smaller. And yes, we are here now and it's not been a problem at all going to dinners. Easy to get back by dark since it's light until 9ish.
Janisj - you mentioned you might be in London in June? Would love to meet you.

Ah -- so you must not drink as much beer/wine/Pimm's/adult beverages as I do. I like to be walking distance for dinner.

>>Janisj - you mentioned you might be in London in June?<<

Not likely Thankfully all the tests indicated it was only a 'mechanical' thing and am now in P-T which is really helping. But now it's a bit late to plan a trip for June.


(I did just book a bucket list trip to Machu Pichu for August, so the next time I can probably make it back to the UK won't be until Fall)

Meant to add - if the weather cooperates -- do try to get up to the Mount Inn for lunch one day. Sit out on the deck if possible.

Years ago I stopped at the Mount Inn for lunch on a day I was walking the Cotswold Way. I see the game pie is no longer on the menu, the game parts of that day's likely hung too long for their own good. Or I should say, my own good with predictable results.

Sorry we won't see you in London, janisj. Likely we don't enjoy at dinner when driving is involved a lot of alcohol. However, we do enjoy drinks in our apt or wherever at night.��

Supposed to be no rain tomorrow so may seek out ythe recommendations for
Mount Inn. Thanks!

Game pie would be a seasonal thing (unless it is frozen) - so not it likely isn't on the menu now.

Those of a less literal turn of mind might consider the ramifications beyond the season.
