Back home after a few days away in the camper van. It’s been great to start to relax, although the first week of the break is always trying to switch off from work and getting mentally un-tired – is that a thing? It was so easy to pack up with the campervan and leave the … Continue reading
Obviously in need of a lazy morning. 10:00 before we woke up and when camping, be it in a tent or campervan, that has to be almost unheard of. It also took a bit to wake up Dan who was happily still in the land of Nod. The weather hasn’t been quite what it promised … Continue reading
Another day cycling but this time we headed over to Carsington Water to complete the 12 km loop on our bikes. I’d certainly recommend going around anticlockwise as that gets the hills out of the way for the first half of the loop and it finishes with a reasonably flat second half – that is … Continue reading

Even when you’re really tired, the completion of a job really does feel good and give you a boost. That said, I’m tired and about to sleep. In fact I’m that tired my sister called me today and I’ve just realised at 23:40 – sorry Bev. So one more day of school left and then … Continue reading
Good morning Mr Kite – you look exhausted. Nice start to the morning and thank you; I didn’t realise I looked so bad. It has been a tiring few weeks especially, but the end is near and a chance to catch up, rest and be ready to go again. I think the demands of being … Continue reading
