Thursday November 30th – Day 1, London, Krakow And so, after a number of years, we finally made it to Krakow. Back in the day (about 7 year’s ago) the company I worked for acquired a Polish company, and I went out there on business a couple of times. The first time was in early…

Events 2017 – Christmas Trail, Blenheim Palace, Woodstock
Saturday, 25th November 2017 – Christmas Trail, Blenheim Palace Having been to the event in 2016 we were quite keen to do the Blenheim Palace Christmas Trail again in 2017 and so booked ourselves in good and early, which meant we had a good choice of dates (though the Saturday slots were filling up fast…
Travel/Food 2017 – Kingston-upon-Hull, Beverley, Raskelf
Saturday, 11th/Sunday, 12th November 2017 – Kingston-upon-Hull (Hull) This was a much shorter visit than the one in May, as we only stayed one night (at the splendidly-located City Centre Premier Inn right by The Deep) and arrived an hour or so before the start of the performance we were there to see, the “Last…
Travel 2017 – Moselle Road Trip, Day 9
Sunday October 1st – Day 9, Piesport, Erden, Burg Arras We were moving on so the morning was spent going round in circles attempting to figure out how to fit all the wine boxes and the luggage into the car, without endangering any bottles, and keeping our bags where we’d be able to get them…
Food/Travel 2017 – Moselle Road Trip, Day 7
Friday September 29th – Day 7, Trier We’d promised ourselves a second day in Trier, and having discovered that there were some interesting events going on on Friday we figured that would be the best day to do it on. Instead of heading out on the riverside road, we opted to take the quick route…
Food/Travel 2017 – Copenhagen (Week 3)
Monday 20th February to Friday 24th February, 2017 – Copenhagen So one more week in Copenhagen and slowly going nuts in the Radisson Blu Scandinavia because actually three weeks in the same hotel is too long for anyone. The first night of the week I didn’t really feel like going far so wandered out with…
Travel 2017 – Copenhagen, Weekend 2, Day 1
Saturday 18th February, 2017 – Copenhagen, Denmark And so after another week at the training coalface, A. arrived in good time on the Friday evening for us to indulge in a quick drink in the hotel bar before we trekked over to O Tempo (using slightly more buses than might have been necessary if we’d…
Events 2016 – Christmas at Blenheim, Blenheim Palace, Woodstock
Tuesday 27th December, 2016 – Christmas at Blenheim, Blenheim Palace, Woodstock Everyone’s doing it these days it seems, so after a bit of discussion we decided we would go and try out the Christmas light display at Blenheim Palace, a 40 minute drive away from home. We shelled out for tickets and for car parking,…
Running 2012 – Adidas Silverstone Half Marathon from the Other Side
Some people may know that I was in charge of the marshals at this event yesterday. It’s tough being a frustrated (non)-runner, especially as I had an entry, paid for back when I was optimistic enough to think this would be a short-term injury layoff. However, apart from a brief moment of tearfulness as I…
Running 2011 – Silverstone Half Marathon
Sunday, 6th March 2011 – Silverstone Half Marathon, Silverstone Double espresso drunk with predictably horrible if welcome results (if you’re not a runner, you’re better off not knowing). Porridge eaten. 1 litre of water downed. Serious stretches done… Body glide applied to sensitive areas (armpits in this case) Temporary Cancer Research tattoos applied. About to…
