Newton Leys Kebab Van
One of the best kebabs in Milton Keynes! I’d never had a kebab until I met Mr Fixit who is a kebab connoisseur. Whilst he loves kebabs and would happily eat one most days, I don’t. I happily have one every couple of weeks or so but I couldn’t eat them often. Depending on where…

Vinho Verde – a perfect summer wine
Since visiting Portugal for a family wedding in 2023 I have developed a love of Portuguese wine. My favourite Portuguese white is a cheap (of course!) but very drinkable Vinho Verde available from Tesco.
