Yesterday I spent a very enjoyable day out with friends Jen and Steve visiting a couple of National Trust properties in Kent. First off we went to Ightham Mote, which I’d visited before but was very happy to see again, and then Bodiam Castle, which I hadn’t been to. It really is the archetypal medieval castle - very impressive looking indeed and great fun to wander around.

After all the wandering around we consulted my Good Beer Guide and found a suitable pub for a sit down and a couple of beers before heading back to Steve and Jen’s where we dined splendidly upon fish and chips before heading home. My idea of a good day out.
