Tales from a down-shifted family
- Making the most of modest means
It was a busy day for all of us yesterday. I started it with some work on the computer and then a nice 3x 12 minute sweetspot turbo trainer session courtesy of a TrainerRoad workout called Geiger. It was then the usual hectic half an hour of getting ready for work and school before we...
Well, building this marble run was a lot more complicated and took a lot longer than we had expected. All done now though and I did have a bit of help from Morgan! We just need a battery to see if we can get it working fully automatically now. Marble Run Every little bracket and...
The Christmas Holidays continue and we’ve almost lost track of which day it is, but I remembered it was Sunday so ended up having a fairly busy day cycling, swimming SUP Surfing, walking on the beach and indulging! The Usual Sunday Morning It started like any other Sunday morning for me, up early at 4:30am and...
Lego Build number two of Christmas was the huge Lego City Explorers Deep Sea Exploration Vessel.

Following our trip to Loch Lomond which was a complete success all round, we had planned to meet up with Pat (Anna’s Mum) at Chester Zoo on our way back. She had a coach trip over from the Isle of Man and we had spent the night nearby in a Premier Inn in Runcorn. We...
