Tales from a down-shifted family
- Making the most of modest means
Now that the clocks have gone forward there is plenty of time for getting out and making the most of the light in the evenings. The weather was gorgeous yesterday so Anna, Morgan and I took a stroll across to the dunes. A recent report said that children don’t get to spend nearly as much...
After a long search and several unsuccessful missions, air28uk has finally found our Assume Nothing #2 geocache. These Assume Nothing caches are supposed to be a little difficult and tricky and judging by his log, the persistence paid off and made the eventual find all the more satisfying. This is the log entry: Location: United...
I feel as though I’ve had a fairly productive weekend here. There was enough wind for windsurfing on Saturday, but my chest was still a little sore so I started the day by installing our two new water butts instead. All went to plan and the fact that it was raining whilst I installed them...
Well, after signing up to the Dyfi Enduro a few weeks ago I had intended to do some training for it, get a little fitter on the bike and maybe loose some weight in the process. The plan was to do at least 3 rides a week, a couple of swims, maybe some ‘core-exercises’ such...

I’ve just got back from a ‘photo-walk’ around Ynyslas… Unfortunately it was a typically grey day here in Wales with dull, overcast skies, a very flat light and little of real interest to photograph. I think walking around somewhere you have lived for years makes it even more difficult to take any decent photos as...
[dropcap]U[/dropcap]nable to get out on the water at the weekend having just come out of the cardiac monitoring unit at Bronglais Hospital (more on this some other time), I did manage to walk across to the beach and take some photos of Andy and Rich enjoying the unexpected afternoon North-westerly. The winds weren’t that strong...
