This afternoon, we went to the Coombe Abbey country park, to get out of the city for a relaxing few hours. On the way out, we stopped at Far Gosford Street to take a look in Gosford Wines (we've seen the place advertised and were intrigued by it's claim to £2 wines so we had to take a look. We bought a few bottles of various beers and wines including 3 of the £1.99 wines).

Coombe Abbey itself is mainly landscaped gardens with a lake (complete with ducks). It's surprisingly popular and there were a lot of families there. We had a wander around then found a patch of grass to lie down and read the newspaper. It was a bit windy but we also managed to have the obligatory game of frisbee - it involved a bit of running around to retrieve it when the wind caught it.

I also thought this would make a good opportunity to try out the camera on my new phone - the image quality is so much higher than the old phone, as can be seen by comparing the examples below with some of the photos taken with my old phone (such as this one).

(Tonight, we tried two of the £1.99 wines - a red and a white. They were ok, a bit light on flavour but there was nothing bad about them, so good value really).
