Fabulous time seeing my gorgeous young cousin @joefosterrr in the opening night of new musical Hex at the National Theatre last night. A different take on the classic Sleeping Beauty fairytale which was great fun. Brilliant job Joe and all the team, good luck for the rest of the run! #hex #musicaltheatre #musical #nationaltheatre #london #londontheatre #theatre #family #weekend #weekendvibes @mary.foster220 @miri.b20 @rob.jeff2205 @reejefferies

Lovely few days in pretty Polignano to finish our

Lovely few days in pretty Polignano to finish our road trip around Puglia. Feel very lucky to be able to travel and discover new places again. And new food and drinks too. Puglia is a great place for that. Here’s just a few examples - we mostly just dived in and ate before photos could be taken! New blog posts will be coming soon.

Excellent couple of days in Matera. Such an interesting history including people living in abject poverty in the sassi cave dwellings as recently as the 1950s, which were then abandoned for years before being restored. Now it’s a European city of culture and the setting for the opening sequence of the new James Bond. Never been anywhere quite like it. #matera #basilicata #italy #sassi #sassidimatera #jamesbond #notimetodie #travel #travelphotography #travelblogger #travelcocktail

Home for the next couple of days. The cone roofed trulli houses of Alberobello are pretty unique, so staying here in one couldn’t be missed on our road trip of Puglia #trulli #trullidialberobello #alberobello #puglia #italy #travel #travelphotography #travelblogger #travelcocktail

Change of scenery today with a day trip from Lecce to Gallipoli. Gorgeous colours in the Ionian Sea, a lovely old town and some delicious swordfish with a sea view. #gallipoli #puglia #italy #ioniansea #seaview #beach #port #swordfish #fishrestaurant #daytrip #daytrippinginitaly #travel #travelphotography #travelblogger #travelcocktail
