Ascot - Drove into the town of Ascot where a big horse racetrack, Ascot Racecourse, and a huger race Royal Ascot, was being held that weekend. Let's just say, everyone was dressed up - ladies in their fancy, elegant hats and men in their suits with or without tails, windsor ties (of course) and walking, or should i say staggering around town. As we drove the main thoroughfare, all of these nicely dressed people were staggering about, queueing up at a few pubs, ladies removing their shoes, and it was about 9pm only! haha, i guess beyond the nice wear and classiness, even the rich like to get drunk and booze it up.....all in the streets. Belvedere Arms - met up with our friend Lucy, who was coincidentally in town for training. Yep, travelled from Canada to Frimley for her specialized training! Found a place, called the Belvedere Arms which was in Ascot and in Sunninghill on the edge of Windsor Great Park, near to Blacknest Gate, and just a short drive from Wentworth Golf Club and Guards Polo Club (got that from the official website). Caught up with Lucy and surprised she made the drive from Heathrow to Frimley every morning (approx 20-30 mins) and as usual, first time driving on the wrong side of the road. She wants to move here and work and i think the experience of checking out the non-city-like environment of England and scenery of where we were might have made her closer to sealing the deal..lol. I wouldn't blame her, so 'cmon Jeff! Ge ...
