Tales from a down-shifted family
- Making the most of modest means
Woohoo, on his nine-month birthday Morgan slept through the night for the first time ever. We didn’t hear a sound from him (other than the odd cough) from 7pm when he went to bed until 7am when he woke up… Bliss! I did of course still have to get up in the middle of the...
Well, this was the view that greeted us in Borth this morning looking out towards the beach and the sand dunes. Looks as though the weather forecasts were correct and they are forecasting more for today as well. BBC: North, west and mid Wales are likely to be most affected overnight with heavy snow unlikely...
I was playing around on a website yesterday that seems to be one of those sites that is something of an internet phenomenon. As with most ‘internet phenomena’ it is a very simple idea that has just caught on and now has a cult following. The site is http://www.43things.com. Put simply it allows you to...
Well, after much nagging by Anna and Anna’s Mum I finally went to the doctors yesterday to see what they had to say about this cold/flu that I have had for the past couple of months and haven’t been able to shake. Morgan has had a pretty bad cough / cold as well so we...

Anna’s Mum is visiting us at the moment from the Isle of Man, so Anna and I took the opportunity of having a baby-sitter in the house to look after Morgan and had a rare evening out. It isn’t often that we go out, not only because we have Morgan but also because we can’t...
That seems to be all we have had lately. Autumn is definately here and winter is just around the corner. It’s that time of year when this part of the world seems to have closed down. The shops that appear in Borth over the summer have gone without a trace, the windows on the sea-side...
Since Feb 2005 I have been experimenting with making a little income from websites. Not by working on them and building them for people which is one of my ‘proper’ sources of income, but by actually building sites for myself that then generate an income. Now, before you get excited, I’m not making loads, in...
…the 5th of November… To be honest I almost forgot it was Bonfire Night tonight. Well, it is excusable seeing as we had the community bonfire party last weekend to make the most of people being around at the end of half term. There will of course be a firework display in Borth tonight, but...
