Skip t’ ma loo

So after our final camping trip of the summer we stopped off at Sally’s cabin to wish her a happy birthday for yesterday and to meet Geoff. Having managed to pack up the camp in dry sunny conditions for once my state of mind was very good resigned to heading away from home after a […]

Coz I Luv her

When Jamie realised she had forgotten to bring her glasses to camping the one pair of contacts she had in became VITAL to allow her to be able to see on the trip. With no solution cups either a trip to Tesco was required so she could at least take them out and keep them […]

Camping whether or not!

Sat in the porch after day out in Porthmadog where we had Chippy dinner then coffee while kids threw money at the arcade, before crabbing fron the dock side followed lastly by a Tesco essentials shop on the way back to camp, I thought about the worst thing about camping which in my opinion is […]

Camping, will I ever learn?

Sat in a tent, cold hugging the heater watching Jamie struggle because she forgot her glasses and even forgot the case to soak her contacts in too. Camping is always a nightmare but add in me having to watch Jamie struggle and unable to help is the worst! 11: 15and bedtime, day 1 done, 2 […]

Time flies…

About to begin a long weekend and go camping I had a delivery of 3 x 18mm sheets of plywood as an upgrade to my shed floor, so after dinner I set about installing them so that they did not get damaged or have a chance to warp if stored incorrectly. This meant emptying everything […]

Had a drinking nightmare

I woke up during last night, feeling so disappointed that I’d had a glass of wine and not completed one year sober, only to find I’d actually dreamt it. Makes me think I have to do the year, no matter what even if that means my Broncos weekend is a dry one. I think I’d […]

Watersports

After Reagans eye consultation referral at Leighton where her diagnosis of Accommodative Esotropia or as I prefer ‘the turn in her eye has probably always been there and so long as her glasses correct it there is nothing to worry about…’ Mommy took the kids to Delemere Wild Shore to spend the afternoon messing about […]

Theives & Vagabonds

I took a call today from a number beginning 020 thinking it was a work call but infact it was a company called Life Search who I used 4 years ago to help get myself life insurance because at the time I was listening to a weekly podcast by someone who felt he needed peace […]

Sat in the sun thinking…

As I sat in the garden this afternoon choosing to spend the whole day doing nothing but have a chill out day in the sun I read the words below, which were attributed to Steve Jobs but a bit of Googling says that might not strictly be true. Whoever wrote them, doesn’t matter, what matters […]

Let’s Ride 2022

So as another season looms there is light on the horizon after 6 years of disappointment since winning #SB50 when dreams of a dynasty and continued success were quickly extinguished with a carousel of quarterbacks trying to follow in Manning’s footsteps and coming up way too short but not helped by a poor O-line and […]
