Sunday 14th June, 2026 – Copenhagen, Helsingør There was always a possibility that we would head out of town at least once on this trip, though we were taking a view of the weather before deciding. When we’d set off from home, the long range forecast suggested that it was going to rain every day….

Travel 2026 – Copenhagen, Denmark – Day 2
Saturday 13th June, 2026 – Copenhagen Saturday was also fine, no matter what the weather forecast suggested, and so I was up early with the intent to run Amager Fellaed parkrun, it being nearby, easy-ish to get to, and not one that I’ve run before. I made my way across, and managed to collect a…
Travel 2026 – Copenhagen, Denmark – Days 0 and 1
Friday 12th June, 2026 – Copenhagen This was not a planned journey. It was in fact more than a tad unexpected. After months, nay years, of being told we couldn’t travel for work, we finally got the go ahead to meet as a team at HQ in Copenhagen about two months before the only date…
Travel 2026 – Athens, Greece – Day 2
Tuesday 17th March, 2026 – Athens After a fairly late night, we still managed to drag ourselves awake early enough to get breakfast in the Club Intercontinental where we enjoyed the view over to the Acropolis, Phillipapos Hill, and Lycabetus Hill. The weather looked OK, perhaps a tad greyer than we might have wanted, but…
Travel 2025 – France – Day 5 (Les Baux-de-Provence)
We had a plan for Day 5, because I do my research. And so we set out to attempt a circular drive around our little slice of heaven, despite the day having dawned cloudy and grey, with the hills almost invisible as we ate breakfast. And so to the plan, which like many a plan…
Travel 2025 – Cunard Queen Anne – Day 13 (Southampton to Home)
Wednesday 8th October, 2025 – Southampton to Home (via Hungerford) And so we arrived back in Southampton ready to disembark after 12 nights of being so well looked after. It was going to be a wrench to get off. Breakfast was early (they stop serving at 08:00 on the final morning and there’s a limited…
Travel 2025 – Cunard Queen Anne – Day 12 (At Sea, Heading for Southampton)
Tuesday 7th October, 2025 – Stavanger to Southampton Tuesday was our last full day on board and so much of it was dedicated to attempting to repack. Why do dirty clothes take up so much more space than clean ones do? Even if you fold them exactly the same? Of course having to pack a…
Travel 2025 – Cunard Queen Anne – Day 11 (Stavanger, Norway)
Monday 6th October, 2025 – Stavanger We arrived in Stavanger to find two things. The first was that we were seemingly parked in someone’s front garden, and the second was that Storm Amy had abated and while the weather wasn’t as good as it had been in Narvik, it wasn’t bad. It looked like we…
Travel 2025 – Cunard Queen Anne – Days 9 and 10 (At Sea, Still Heading South)
Saturday 4th /Sunday 5th October, 2025 – Narvik to Stavanger We were initially scheduled to depart Narvik some time after 05:30 in the morning but due to the approach of Storm Amy that time was brought forward to 4:00am, and we were well underway by the time I woke up. I had been planning a…
Travel 2025 – Cunard Queen Anne – Day 8 (Narvik, Norway)
Friday 3rd October, 2025 – Narvik Of the four ports we visited on this cruise, Narvik was possibly the least interesting, at least at first sight. However, it soon turned out there was more to it than meets the eye. It’s very easy once you look around to understand how it lives up to at…
