Racing Toes
Thought I’d paint my toenails in team colours for yesterdays INTRtri training day… It went down quite well! What colour(s) shall I go with next?

Kitty Cat Caching
First day of the half term and as I have no work on, Morgan is staying at home with me in order to save on child-care costs. Not wanting to sit around the house all day I’d managed to get him excited about heading out to do some geocaching. So, after some breakfast we packed...
Matching Feet
I guess it helps if your feet match fairly well. It’s not essential, but it doesn’t do too much harm. Mine had been a little uneven for a while. My right big toe had most of its toenail missing for some reason and my left ankle had been sore and a little swollen since I...
The Best Place to live?
I know we like living in Ynyslas but I think sometimes people don’t always agree. To be honest we don’t mind what other people think and if everyone wanted to live where we do it wouldn’t be as nice as it is. However I’ve just come across this article from Wales Online which confirms what we’ve...
Social Media Amalgamation
Fed up with posting the same stuff to Twitter, Facebook and Google+. Me too, in fact I barely bothered with Google+ as I couldn’t be bothered to post there as well as elsewhere, but I’ve just come across a Chrome Plugin that not only allows me to see everything from my Facebook Stream and Twitter Stream...
Ribbit in Peace
Shem posted on Facebook yesterday about the Ying and Yang of his day. Sitting in a hot tub under the stars with owls and bats flying over head was the plus side, clearing up a mess made by his dog wasn’t so pleasant. The unseasonably hot weather that we’ve been having seems to have put a smile...
What a Scorcher
Just as we were getting ready for winter and getting used to the cold, grey, windy autumnal weather we’d been having, September has thrown us a bit of a surprise. I don’t think it counts as an Indian Summer quite yet as the official definition is a period of seven days or more occurring after...
I’m a Tombola Prize
A friend of mine e-mailed me last night, sending me a link to a tombola competition in aid of Diabetes UK, and asking ‘Are you the Tombola Prize’. I had a look, you can see the prize here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/castlevision/6153184344/in/photostream I am indeed a tombola prize, or at least, a photo of me is.
A New Car for Anna
Anna’s old Nissan Micra has gone, and has been replaced with a nice new (to us) Honda Jazz. We didn’t take months to decide on a car either this time. Anna decided one day that it was time for a new one – her old one was very old and falling apart. She then popped...
Marbles
On our way home from Dartmoor, we stopped off in Bovey Tracy at the House of Marbles. It was a slightly odd place, but then anywhere that is dedicated to marbles is going to be. They had some huge marbles and marbles of all kinds in the museum, along with lots of mesmerising marble runs....
