Winter has well and truly arrived over the last few weeks. So into hibernation mode. Fortunately plenty to keep one entertained indoors so I’ve been getting into rewatching the wire – AKA the best cop series that’s EVER been on TV. Here’s a sampler from the first series in case […]
Went on another fabulous walking holiday in Spain, this time to the Alpujarras mountain range just south of Granada. Capileira and the Mesa Hostal Poqueira was our base for lots of great walks. Took things easy on day one with a short 6-7 Km circular walk to Cebadilla via Bubion. […]
Well it’s been a mighty long time since I last blogged just seem to have got out of the habit. Or perhaps not much interesting enough has happened or… maybe I’ve been so busy getting out there having fun I just haven’t got round to it. Still now winter and […]
Been doing some long awaited home improvements over the last couple of weeks. Why does everything take 3 times as long as you think it’s going to? A word to the wise… expected the unexpected and be in for the long haul. Sure it will look lovely when it’s finished… […]
You can tell it’s summer in London – festival season and lots of good stuff happening on the South Bank along the river. It’s just been Refugee Week and another great festival, “Celebrating Sanctuary” laid on courtesy of Coin Street Community Builders. A fantastic day of great music, poetry, dance, […]

When my mate who now lives Oz came over to visit family in Jersey I decided I’d have a long weekend over there too. In all the years I’ve known her, had never been so now was the time… Pretty place, lots of nice beaches and weather was mostly quite […]
Off again across the pond to New Orleans on another shortish work trip. Fortunately it wasn’t all work and no play and there was a chance to see a bit of the city. Fabulous place though parts of the city still devastated from the effects of Hurricane Katrina. Bourbon Street […]
Can’t quite believe I’ve been back a month already. Really don’t know where the time has gone. Memory of trip thankfully has not yet faded. Largely down to repeatedly perusing photos while organising into print and virtual albums. On that note I’ve now got round to uploading photos from Tokyo […]
Thanks for all the virtual tea and sympathy you’ve sent to console me. I seem to have survived my first couple of weeks back including a week back at work relatively unscathed. Had a very nice welcome from my work colleagues and have been gently been easing myself back into […]
