In my view, these things (Good Pub Guide, Ordnance Survey map and cash) are all you need for a good weekend away. I'm so excited about going away this weekend - I don't think David and I have ever done this before. Dogs are coming too - they're going to spend tomorrow charging around the forest and we're going to take pics and enjoy some P&Q.

Nothing could be nicer - whatever the weather. It's the calm before the storm - kitchen starts on Monday!
