Stockholm, The Cotswolds and Cardiff 2000

Mandy and I met in the Swedish Capital of Stockholm in 2000.

The biting wind cut through the layers, especially for Rob, who felt the cold more than usual. The icy temperatures had frozen parts of the sea in the harbour, creating a unique and memorable atmosphere as they wandered through the historic streets and admired the frozen beauty of the city’s waterways. Despite the cold, Stockholm's charm shone through its architecture and scenic views.

We explored the narrow street of the old town (Galma stan) and thankfully there were plenty of coffee shops to stop off and to warm up.


Our next meeting was in The Cotswold are of England. Our base was the Frogmill hotel and from here we explored the numerous small villages in the area.


While we were in the area we visited Cheltenham race course and even managed to pick out a couple of winners.



From the Cotswolds we drove to Rob's hometown of Cardiff in South Wales and enjoyed a lovely meal with Sean, Karen and their son Liam.



During the visit to the Welsh Capital, Rob took Mandy to her first rugby match at the Millenium stadium.
