Tales from a down-shifted family
- Making the most of modest means
As was now customary on this holiday, I headed out first thing in the morning for an early morning walk to find some geocaches. This time I headed in a different direction along the network of Cycle Paths and found a nice little nature reserve to stroll through. I found a geocache as well, but...
Another lovely day in Dorset and today we had a trip to Lulworth Cove planned, so after breakfast we set off and soon arrived at Lulworth Cove where we parked in the car park which was quiet had a quick look around the visitor centre and then headed off across the beach which we had virtually...
It may only be April, but it was time for our family holiday to Portland in Dorset. Why Portland in Dorset? Well, I was planning on competing in what looked like a nice sprint distance triathlon there on Sunday 12th, and it was the area that I studied for for PhD. looking at the palaeoecology...
We didn’t get huge amounts of snow here, but it did start snowing quite heavily whilst Morgan and I were out Mountain Biking yesterday at Pendam. Once we’d finished biking and got into the car it came down really heavily again so Morgan took a quick video clip of the snowstorm as I drove along...
Christmas Eve was a nice quiet one. The house was cleaned and ready for Santa, but there wasn;t much to do as far as that was concerned as we’d been getting on top of most things anyway. That meant we had a fairly quiet day. After a quick little spin on the turbo trainer I headed...
Well, it feels as though summer is coming to an end. There’s only a few days left of the school holidays, we’ve just had a fairly damp August Bank Holiday weekend and there are only 120 days until Christmas! We didn’t let the change in the weather dampen our spirits though and managed some family...
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...
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...
Christmas started for us on Monday afternoon once Anna had finished work for the day. It started with the traditional supermarket battle as we joined everyone else by buying our last minute supplies for the holidays. It wasn’t too bad really, yes it was busy, yes the shops were running out of things, yes the...
We made the annual visit to just north of Bristol at the weekend in order to meet my side of the family for the pre-Christmas gathering. It was my Mum’s birthday on the Saturday as well so we were there to celebrate that as well as meet up with everyone and exchange Christmas gifts. Anna, Morgan...
