A self catering break, visiting friends in Jersey




https://www.facebook.com/pages/Porthole-Suites/641756039249302



 We have just returned from a week in the Porthole Suites in St Aubin Jersey.










The Porthole Suites was our first serious adventure into the world of "self catering" holidays albeit that with all the available first class restaurants to be found in the small village of St Aubin, you probably only need to produce breakfast and even then the usual "Full English" or if you prefer a "Continental, is only a two minute walk away.
This post is not an advert for Porthole Suites, but an honest comment that the facilities are first class and the prices are very reasonable.
This is a new venture, only opened in May of this year following a complete restructure and re invention of the previous Porthole Cottage, a delightful Bed and Breakfast where we stayed 4 times last year (2013). The new building with its 10 self catering suites is a credit to the owner.
If you have ever visited or considered visiting Jersey, and would include a self catering option in your plans, you would need to look no further than this.




    

 We were amongst the first visitors in early June and we will certainly be returning to this establishment later in the year.

Northern Ireland and Brexit. The return of "The Troubles"

Northern Ireland: police attacked in another night of disturbances | Northern Ireland | The Guardian When the "Brexit" debate was still filling our newspapers and our television screens, readers may remember why I had changed my mind since voting to leave at the referendum vote. Apart from the economic arguments, which had become crystal clear after peeling away all the lies and misrepresentations trotted out by Bozo Boris and his "Get Brexit Done" conspirators, there was always the problem of the border between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. Would it be possible to have a border between the European Union and the United Kingdom where people, goods and services could pass freely between the two nations without customs restrictions, tariffs, duties and all the other formalities? Would it be possible to have one part of the United Kingdom treated differently from other parts of the United Kingdom, particularly when Scotland for example had voted overwhe

The Parliamentary Labour Party conspirators are hatching another coup.

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/corbyn-labour-leadership-rebel-mps-a7202641.html Labour MPs plan for Corbyn victory  and plot how to confront an emboldened leader Even for the "Independent", the number and use of unnamed anonymous "sources" in this article is quite astonishing. However, amongst all the usual speculative delusion, there is one factor which causes concern to anyone who believes in the Labour Party, its principles and in he democratic process of the Labour movement. It is abundantly clear that elements within the Parliamentary Labour Party, are even now, planning another coup in the event that Jeremy Corbyn should emerge as winner in the current ballot. The failed coup of earlier this year, has now descended into a sham leadership election, because the conspirators still fail to accept the democratic decision of the Labour party membership and cling to

Plemont development or return to nature?

  http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-jersey-  A date has been set for a public inquiry into plans for Plemont Headland. This exceptional location must be sold to the National trust for Jersey, and returned to nature. Any other outcome involving development of the site, can only demonstrate the extent to which greed and self interest have become endemic in Jersey.
