Steve was going to join me but I heard news last night that he’d fallen off his mountain bike and had broken his arm. I think he’s OK and will be back at it soon,...

However, I wanted to try out my Insta360 camera so took it on my usual little walk. I’m not really sure how to shoot with it yet or how to edit the...

I don’t think there were enough people signed up for the weekend, so it became a day trip on Sunday. That suited me as it’s only a short drive anyway and I could not only do other things on Saturday, but I...

There has been very little wind for what seems like ages. Very little apart from the mad, short-lived and very destructive squall that we had back in November.
