In early March, we traveled to Prague for a long weekend staying at the Four Seasons within a short walk of many of the city’s attractions.

Earlier this month, we spent a lovely warm day visiting Bocketts Farm Park, a working free range farm in the beautiful countryside of Leatherhead, Surrey, only about a 45 minute drive for us from West London.
