If you're in Dorchester, then there's only one place to go: Monkey World. Deposit the wife there, and spend a wonderful few hours at the Tank Museum. That's not very nice; sounds like you are suggesting Mrs Destry is visiting simian relations. Whilst the residents are, in a very very loose sense, our distant cousins, I'm pretty sure she's more into Primark than primates.

I enjoyed a holiday in Dorset a couple of years ago. Monkey World is definitely worth a visit. We also visited Corfe castle and spent a scorching day on Swanage beach. Iirc I spent most of the time hiding under the umbrella glued to Neptune's Pride.

hello
I had a Gregg's Vegan Steak-bake, for lunch, then a large bag of salad emptied into a bowl (with dressing), then four crackers and half a wheel of Camembert, then a cup of tea, and an Oreo...

I'd rather spend a day in Monkey World than a tank museum. Goading the hairy-jawed throwbacks.

I've never understood people's fascination with septic tanks. Indeed. Some of my zoom-drinks buddies are into this stuff. A few scoops to the wind and they start banging on about different types of WW2 tanks, fighter planes and boats that they can reel off detailed technical information about. Baffling. Their chat on this theme feels like a form of competition to know the most arcane facts. What they don't realise is that I win, as I sit there smugly superior in my ignorance.

Maybe Destry has lied to us. He recently reached a landmark birthday. Maybe he sold the pad in Croydon and moved to a secluded cottage in Dorset to work on his novel. Finding new inns to sample their wares during the day. Writing under candle light throughout the night. Like a modern day Ernest Hemingway. It's happened before.
"WHY DESTRY? WHHHYYYYYY?"
*reads today's 'box*
Oh right, I see.

Leftover chilli served on gnocchi. Fusion cuisine at its finest.
It could only be improved if there was the time to gratin it. But as I'm not long in, there isn't.
I've never been to Dorset. It does look rather nice.
