Husband and wife - London life 🇬🇧

Midweek Quality Time - Brunch in the sun #NottingHill 

Just the two of us

Yesterday's 'Midweek Quality Time" with hubby - Exquisite Japanese dining at Nobu Park Lane.

Roka 🍣 Mayfair

Midweek quality time at it's best - a rather delightful lunch (some of the highlights were the black cod in yuzu miso, soft shell crab and the spinach in sesame dressing - yum!) with hubby today at Zuma's sister restaurant that never disappoints! 

Ralph 🐎 Lauren

Wednesday's lunch with hubby at Ralph's Coffee & Bar 

Midweek Quality Time

Lunching with my loves at the family-run Marylebone café 'Entre Nous', just around the corner from us. They do the most fresh and yummy home made soups and salad boxes you can find in central London!

Midweek Quality Time

Love it when Bear "works" from home! ;-) 

Taxi to Notting Hill pls!

On our way to meet Bear for sushi lunch in Notting Hill :-)

Midweek Quality Time

Nice long leisurely midweek lunch with hubby in Villandry in Marylebone. Love the fact that Bear is not a '9-5 er' ;-)

Brunch with the man in a local cafe after a power walk around the park.  Omelette with onions, peppers, ham & cheese which keeps u full for hours on end :)

Tea time after school

On our way home from school, we stopped at Cocomaya for some tea and chocolate brownies.  Bear (who took the pics) worked from home today, so we surprised Sean by picking him up together, which he of course really likes! Family quality time at it's best ♥

House hunting and sushi

Bear and I went to Notting Hill earlier today, to view an end of terrace house (with large roof garden) for sale .
Afterwards we went for sushi (seared tuna sashimi as in pic) and walked back home in the sunshine. I really appreciate spending time together with my husband during the week whilst Sean is in nursery! :-)

Notting Hill

 Most Wednesdays (with Sean at nursery school all day and Bear not going in to the office), as part of our “midweek quality time”, we always try to do something nice together. 

Today as the sun was out, we drove with the roof down to Notting Hill and indulged in yummy sushi (Seared Tuna Sashimi on the picture being my favourite).

Our Wednesday morning

This morning, after dropping Sean off at nursery, Bear, Mum and I drove with the roof down to Chiswick in West London to view a house for sale.  We then stopped at High Road Brasserie (part of Soho House Group) for a brunch in the sunshine. Midweek quality time, indeed :-)

Breakfast at Landmark Hotel

On Wednesday morning Bear and I went to The Landmark Hotel for a luxurious slap up breakfast, as part of our midweek quality time-plan.
Pricey indeed, but the range of options were unbelievable - shame it was limited for me with my low carb diet! Have agreed on returning on a day after the night before, for a carb fuelled brunch :-)

Breakfast & the BBC radio

This morning Bear and I had our usual breakfast at The Portman, only today he was interrupted half way through by BBC Radio who did a live interview with him over the phone regarding bankers against the Archbishop of Canterbury and the protesters outside St Paul's Cathedral.  Proud of my man to say the least! :-)

Midweek Quality Time

With the man having breakfast by the park in Lancaster Gate, deciding on our preferred menu for the the wedding reception at Gordon Ramsay's - Not an easy task,  but must finish it today so will post later on the blog. Ciao!

Breakfast at the Grazing Goat

This morning Bear and I indulged ourselves with a quality breakfast, coffee and reading the papers at the Grazing Goat, after dropping Sean off at nursery. Just as last Wednesday we have a couple of viewings lined up today locally. And with my Mum coming over yet again tomorrow , I am feeling very excited and positive :-)

Happy Wednesday, folks!

Wednesdays = quality time

As part of our midweek quality time-plan, Bear and I take Sean to nursery every Wednesday morning for an 8am drop off. Here you see Bear leaving the nursery premises in Connaught Village, yesterday morning

We then went to The Portman for  breakfast (becoming routine now lol)

 They do a very nice cooked brekkie with no grease at all, and only use organic free range products.  I chose poached eggs with my bacon, sausages and mushroom.

  On our way to view a couple of town houses and one mews house for sale in Marlyebone as we are planning to expand in the near future. 

Strike it!

This afternoon Bear and I went to All Star Lanes bowling venue in Bayswater (note; NOT the one on Queensway. This one is smaller and much nicer)

I am so grateful that Bear doesn't go in to his office on Wednesdays, which then allows us to enjoy real quality time together as a couple - as our little boy is in nursery all day that day.

The bowling shoes werent as bad as I remember them!

Neither of us scored very high, but Bear certainly trashed me! lol

On our way home we rented the 'Boris bikes' (Barclays Cycle Hire) for the first time

Both Bear and I really enjoyed it and will definitely do rent them again, now that we have signed up and become members, as part of our midweek plan
