Riyadh’s Season

Riyadh’s Season

November 8, 2019 By AggieB Leave a Comment

During the winter months this year Riyadh, Saudia Arabia’s capital, has hosted more than 300 events.   The reason for this deluge of activity is the Riyadh Season, a government backed initiative to bring vibrancy to Saudi’s major cities.   One of the events was Taste of the World, Riyadh. But going back a step, on […]

Fremantle – Port City

Recently I took Vera the Vespa out during my lunch break and went to Fremantle, Perth’s port city. The journey took me to the Fishing Boat Harbour, Little Creatures and Bathers Beach and then back down South Terrace to South Beach. After challenging myself to write a post about my home city I’m realising again […]

Last Saturday’s mission was to stock up on cheese at the markets in the main square of Montbrison. Montbrison has its own ‘fourme’ which is a medium – not hard not soft – blue cheese. Added to my list as I waited in line at the cheese van was some Cantal Vieux, some St Nectair […]

My memory of the Ardath Pub was that it was on the loop of a horseshoe shaped road, and in the middle of nowhere. You could see it for miles and it was a beacon to anyone who drove past. Not quite true because (a) no one drives past, and (b) it is not on […]

Thought for today

Fact 1: The state changed its name in 2000, and caused a lot of bitterness because of the amount of stationery that had to be changed.  Uttarakhand was formerly known as Uttaranchal.
