A weekend cycle.
People lie. Even people you are supposed to be able to trust. Like husbands. And brothers in law. Generally members of your family. So when they say it’s a nice gentle cycle, a Tarmac covered path, you think “Great! I can do that.” However, they lie! It was all uphill except for on the way […]
Bank Holiday Monday…
My only day off this weekend, and it is… Raining. Sheesh. Typical English weather. The only thing we can rely on is that it is unreliable, unpredictable, but…. what else would we talk about with random strangers as small talk otherwise? “Some horrible weather we’re having” “Oh yes, raining cats and dogs out there” So… […]

It was a surprise we were going anywhere until yesterday, and up until we turned off the motorway and into the carpark… little did she know that our destination was… Warner Bros Studio Tour! Totally amazing, […]

Indoor skydiving
