Tales from a down-shifted family
- Making the most of modest means
We had a nice family evening out on Saturday to visit the Halloween / Bonfire Night lantern procession in Machynlleth. We drove there with Dave and Sarah and met Sarah, Simon and Josh there.. We also bumped into a few other Ynyslas residents including Mike, Rachel, Jamie and Cameron, Chris, Margi and Amy as well...
Just a couple of photos of our spooky pumpkin from Halloween. I was out cycling whilst the pumpkin was being created so don’t know if there was a story behind it or not, but it looks as though Morgan was enjoying himself and the end result was really good.
We had another nice family day out on Saturday. I ‘needed’ some new technical clothing so we thought a trip up to Betws y Coed and the outdoor shops there would be good. I was after lots of things as usual, a really nice waterproof jacket for walking, a lightweight, waterproof for cycling, some waterproof...
Anther busy weekend has been and gone. It was the Aberdovey Windsurf Demo weekend and typically there was no wind at all forecast. I did show willing and drive around to Aberdovey on Saturday morning and had a little look at the kit. Not much was happening but seeing as there was no wind at...

We’ve just had a good weekend visiting family in Gloucestershire. Saturday was spent at Prinknash Abbey Park, feeding ducks and various other birds, fish, goats and deer. Morgan seemed to love it there, but unfortunately the battery in my camera ran out half way round so we don’t have that many photos of him feeding...
I had a busy day on Friday. After a 5am start in order to do a couple of hours work, I took Anna to work and Morgan to nursery and then drove up to Llyn Pendam to meet Steve. We then had an enjoyable Mountain Bike ride around a combination of the Summit Trail and...
Steve had the week off this week and wanted to go out for a cycle in the hills. I should really have done some work, but couldn’t resist a day playing on our bikes so we headed off to the hills around 9am. I know, ‘It’s a Hard Life!’, but you only get one life...
