Saturday, 12th/Sunday, 13th February 2011 – The Childrens Hour, Val Taro, Eat at 23, London, Brackley On Saturday we made what was a rare trip to the theatre. Given the costs of train travel to London for two people, along with the cost of tickets, it’s not something we’ve been able to do that often…

Food 2011 – Halibut, Eat at 23, Buckingham, Brackley
Saturday, 5th February 2011 – Halibut, Eat at 23, Buckingham, Brackley It started out normally enough in that I went running first thing (4 miles at a gentle pace), but it got away from us a bit after that. We had always planned to head for Buckingham and a trip to Halibut to stock up…
Running 2010 – Spooky Sprint 10K, Holme Pierrepoint
Saturday, 30th October 2010 – Spooky Sprint 10K, Holme Pierrepoint So my 3rd 10k of the year was on Saturday, 30th October, the so-called Spooky Sprint, a 10k to raise money for Parkinson’s UK around the National Water Sports Centre at Holme Pierrepoint near Nottingham. The course was described as mainly flat and the map…
Running 2010 – Silverstone Half Marathon, Silverstone
19th October 2010 – My Next Running Task, Silverstone Half Marathon, Silverstone Well, in between updating the Monte Carlo trip I reckoned I’d add some other bits and pieces of information before I start trying to catch up with everyone else’s news (and if there is something you really think I should see, please link…
Travel 2010 – Monaco, Vence, Valbonne, Days 4 and 5
Saturday, 16th/Sunday, 17th October 2010 – Monaco, Vence, Valbonne, Days 4 and 5 Saturday we again got off to a slow start – though I did slot in my training run (13k) before breakfast (having watched Nico Hulkenberg vanish into the distance outside – I never saw him come back). At breakfast they were losing…
Travel 2010 – Monaco, Antibes, Day 3
Friday, 15th October 2010 – Monaco, Antibes, Day 3 Friday morning I got up relatively early and went for a swim in the hotel pool – which was heart-stoppingly cold that early in the day. The sun was just coming up behind the building and hadn’t hit the water, but I soon warmed up and…
Travel 2010 – Monaco, Days 1 and 2
Wednesday, 13th/Thursday, 14th October 2010 – Monaco, Days 1 and 2 I’ve been missing in action for such a long time now that it’s very hard to know where to start, so I’ll make it simple and go with where I am right now and what I’m doing. After a long complicated summer, Lynne and…
Running 2010 – Northampton 10K, Northampton
Sunday, 3rd October 2010 – Northampton 10K, Northampton Today I ran the Northampton 10k – it was great fun. Here’s how it went. I woke up a bit later than I’d intended to (set the alarm for 7am then didn’t switch the on switch, so I woke up at 7.20 instead). I lurched around getting…
Running 2010 – Race for Life, Silverstone
Wednesday, 9th June 2010 – 10K Race for Life, Silverstone So finally 9th of June rolled around and all the training I had done was going to either pay off and I might be able to call myself a runner, or I was going to be horribly shown up as a fraud and end up…
Food 2010 – Whites, Beverley
Saturday, 30th January 2010 – Whites, Beverley So, Saturday night (on a visit to Hull to see my Mum) we went to Whites in Beverley for dinner. I’d been once before and was sufficiently impressed to want to go back for a “proper” run the what looked to be very good cooking (despite a slightly…
