Tales from a down-shifted family
- Making the most of modest means
That was quite a weekend! Dominated by our 10th Wedding Anniversary celebrations. We decided ages ago that we’d like to have a bit of a party for our 10th anniversary and get people together so that we’d remember it. You know how these things are, a simple barbeque in the back garden was planned, nothing...
Phew, we have been busy! It was our 10th wedding anniversary the other day so we’re throwing a bit of a garden party. Guests have been invited and many are coming from far afield so we though we should make an effort as well. I’ve been working on the garden for weeks in preparation for...
Hot on the heels of Sports Day at school, the next day after school we headed out for the Ras yr Hafod at Hafod Estate. This was an adult 10k race along with several kids races. Morgan wanted to do it, but not alone so roped his friend Cameron into it as well. None of them...
We had a fun afternoon at Sports Day yesterday. The sun was shining (most of the time) and the kids all had fun. Here are a few photos from the day.
It was the last day of Half Term and finally I had a day that I could spend with Morgan. So, after a few chores around the house and a little bit of work we headed up to Pendam for a mountain bike ride. Morgan wanted to head out to Nant y Moch, but I wanted...
We’ve just returned form a good weekend away racing at the British Sprint Triathlon Championships at Eton Dorney. We drove down in glorious sunshine on Friday and arrived at the lake for a quick look around. The course looked good and the weather looked as though it was going to be hot. We had booked...
Seeing as we didn’t have a huge amount planned for the Bank Holiday weekend and were simply staying at home we seemed to pack quite a bit in. Triathlon Training and Animations on the Big Screen Saturday started with a bike ride for me, just a quick ride towards Machynlleth, a quick blast around the...
Anna and I had the afternoon off on Friday in order to support Morgan at the Ceredigion Urdd Cross Country Championships. He qualified for these last year at the Aberystwyth Area Championships where he placed 9th. This would of course be a different level as everyone here had qualified and Morgan had only just got in...
The Easter holidays continue and we were all of work and school on Wednesday. Morgan had a friend coming to stay for a sleepover and we had an afternoon out planned so I started the morning with some work followed by a quick run. Anna was still in bed when I got back but I...
After a lazy day on Monday our Easter Holiday continued with a lazy day on Tuesday as well. Swimming in the Sea I started off the day with some work on the computer and then headed over to the beach for a quick 2km swim in the sea. The sea temperature has just about reached...
