Travel 2015 – Bruges, Brussels, Travel, Day 4
Tuesday, 15th December 2015 – Bruges A travel day but with added Belgium! We had checked the timetables carefully to ensure we didn’t face a rerun of Saturday’s ridiculously slow journey from Brussels to Bruges. We checked out of the Medici and loaded our shopping and luggage into the taxi that the receptionist organised for…
Travel 2015 – Bruges, Day 3
Monday, December 14th 2016 – Bruges Monday was “how many museums can you pack into one day” as we endeavoured to see as much as possible and coincidentally also get as much value for money as we could out of the Bruges City Card. We were woken early anyway as we’d left the window open…

Memes 2015 – Now and then a Meme is Fun
And here’s one that is at least actually British/Commonwealth in origin… 1. Marmite – love or hate? Utterly detest it. Vile stuff… 2. Marmalade – thick cut or thin cut? Can’t abide marmalade either. I don’t like the mix of textures. 3. Porridge – made with milk or water? Milk please. 4. Do you like…
Food 2015 – BT Tower (Celebrating the BT Tower’s 50th Birthday), London
Oh boy have I been neglecting this… so without further ado, I’m back. From now on the motor racing stuff will all be on juniorformulamotorsport.org and everything else will be here. I shall further preface this by saying that it is incredibly rare for me to win anything ever. I’ve had the odd Premium Bond…
