Tales from a down-shifted family
- Making the most of modest means
Danny MacAskill is at it again, this time with a ride across the rooftops of Gran Canaria. All very impressive stuff, but we are getting used to his crazy skills now. It’s easy to forget just how difficult just riding a bike is, let alone some of these crazy stunts. I still can’t do a...
It’s back to basics this week with my triathlon training plan, thanks to a bout of illness. A nasty cold, chest infection, man-flu, lurgy, whatever you want to call it, I had it and it wasn’t much fun. I obviously stopped training as soon as it developed fully and then left it for just over...
This weblog is many things. It’s the starting point for our amazing weblog book. Hopefully its’s entertaining, interesting, informative and useful. Some posts are fun, some are serious. It covers an eclectic range of topics, from baking to beekeeping, technology to triathlon or windsurfing to wildlife, it’s all here. It’s a journal of our life...
As usual before Christmas, we head to the South West to see my family and go out for a Christmas meal. This year it was at the Winter Stream Farm not far from Winterbourne. We set off from Aberystwyth after work on Friday, just a little later than usual as Morgan now has a cornet lesson...

The Amazon Fire TV stick popped up on offer the other day and was just too good an offer to miss. The usual price Amazon Fire TV Stick at £34.99 isn’t exactly expensive, but when I noticed it as a Black Friday offer for just £24.99 I decided to take a closer look. We’ve never really looked at...
Draft legal Age-Group Racing The ETU have announced that World Championship Triathlon events for age-group athletes are going to be draft legal. In the past, drafting in age-group events has been cheating, but that is all due to change so it’s time to start thinking about draft legal age-group racing. You may think that non-drafting or draft...
Training had been going well for the past couple of months. As I posted a few weeks ago, I felt as though I was getting back in the groove and had been colouring in my training diary with a sea of green as I ticked off and completed workouts as scheduled. It’s all been mainly MAF zone...
