    We’ve been walking past Farm Kitchen in Palmerston Road, Southsea for the last few months wondering when it’ll open.

    Recently I went out for the day with my pal Catia. Our first stop was Design Vintage in West Stoke, West Sussex for a cake and coffee. They didn’t recognise me with ‘normal’ clothes on (I usually visit them whilst out cycling, its one of our favourite ‘pit-stops’) and only did so once I’d ordered […]
