A few things on the list today and loads of time to get them and do them. Started off with a short run as I try to get some fitness back with the aim being: fit as a fiddle by the end of the summer break. Kate went to The Kabin to make some masks. … Continue reading

Short run to start the day. #It’s Summer – Day 10
It’s Summer – Days 8 and 9
It was obviously a weekend of entertainment with two days rolling into one. Up early on the Saturday to take Dan to football training (and help out as Iain’s #2 for the day – Chris was working). Socially distancing the team in the practices is pretty easy now – a good bunch of lads who … Continue reading

It’s Summer – Day 7
Leave a light on, please! Seventh day of the break and I have pretty much spent it in the garden, jet-washing the patio and flushing out the ants.

Good walk at Kedleston Hall.

It’s Summer – Day 4
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
It’s Summer – Day 3
The first weekday of the summer break is over now and going away in the first week is something I’ve found really helps to get out of school mode and towards one where you enjoy some important things in life. Today we cycled some of the Tissington trail. The weather was not promising to be … Continue reading
