Olympic Rowing – here we go!

Deep joy, I got my tickets today! For someone who is not a rower I’m really excited to get tickets to go and experience the Olympics, plus with luck I’ll watching the British rowing team win some medals!

Lovely piece of music

Not often I find a bit of classical music that I love, in fact never because I’m a dance music fan, but this is sublime

Review of Langton House

“I was there for two weeks for a business trip. I like such places; a house, a few rooms, home atmosphere, friendly hosts. Almost like at home. And the street is also pretty quiet. When I will go to Windsor again, I will contact them first.” Drazen, Croatia November 2011

I have just had the most lovely guests staying. They only stayed one night but Heidi was so lovely. I’m assuming she was travelling with her Dad (lets not get into ages here!) and it’s always a dangerous thing to get into making any assumptions in this business but I’m pretty sure I’m right in this case.

Having people like this stay wants me to “review my guests”! We should have a “GuestAdvisor” web site!

Heidi – you get a 5 star rating! Really enjoyed having you and your Dad here, your bubbly personality really brighten up my morning. Hope you enjoy your trip to the UK and maybe see you again some time in the future.

Langton House Review

Dear Paul and Sonja,

We had a fantastic 2-day break at Langton House and would highly recommend it. The room was comfy, facilities great and location ideal for shops, restaurants and castle.

Many thanks for your hospitality.

London 2012 Paralympic Games

Paul — Wed, 09 Nov 2011 10:03:31 +0000

Well I tried to get some tickets for the main Olympic event – aimed at the rowing, not realising so did a million others!

So next step was the Paralympic Games – which it looks like I’ve got tickets to!!!

Wonderful news as I’m getting a bit fed up of hearing from people who had tickets as they booked to stay with us – it is going to be in my face every day that I didn’t get a ticket and loads of people staying have, so at least this way I can look forward to something.

Excellent Choice !!

Langton house: cozy, comfortable and clean. The team is so helpful, the breakfast is very satisfying, and the location is great in terms of its closeness to windsor castle and the shopping places and train station. We were very glad that we chose Langton house for a 2-night stay in Windsor. THANKS

England Council houses and the Fat Cats

Paul — Tue, 04 Oct 2011 08:55:03 +0000

Just found out that there are people earning over £100,000 who still use a state subsidised council house!

For example – Bob Crow, the general secretary of the RMT union has a council house and earns £145,000

This is ridiculous! These people should be kicked out or made to pay proper market rents for these properties!

The Coldstream Guards arrive back into Windsor

Paul — Sat, 24 Sep 2011 16:19:24 +0000

As the Irish Guards leave Victoria Barracks the Coldstream Guards have arrived back into town for their 3 year stint working in the Castle as well as on operations which look likely to be mainly in Afghanistan.

It is easy to forget that Windsor is a garrison town with 2 regiments based here, the Blues and Royals and whoever is in the Victoria barracks. But we have a long close connection with the troops here and wish them all the best in the future.
