Coniston Old Man
My friend, Clive, checked the weather forecast during the week and announced a 24 hour window of good weather in the Lake District – was this our opportunity to go wild camping on top of Coniston Old Man? It certainly looked like it. Plans were made, food rations bought and rucksacks packed. I have to [...]
Wedding Cars and Chauffeurs
What a gloriously sunny weekend we’re having. So much so, I closed down the laptop and headed into the city’s Cathedral Quarter, making sure I parked the car under the protection of some leafy shade I found in a little side street off Lindum Terrace.

Wales Vs The Lake District
It did occur to me whether I was completely insane to write about visiting Wales in the rain, in the “Just For Fun” category of my blog, but as it turned out it rained in all the right places – more of that later. First, on Thursday night, my friends and I had a decision [...]
