Good Earth

Posted on April 26, 2015 by Gary

Our last morning in Edinburgh saw us both sitting, bleary eyed at breakfast, Nicktor having the added burden of a hangover. “Never again,” he moaned, knowing this was clearly a lie to make his brain feel better. We left Masson … Continue reading →

Dim sum for breakfast

Posted on January 7, 2015 by Gary

The plane arrived in a hot and humid Brisbane bang on time, following a delightful Chinese breakfast. Sadly I had to say goodbye to my very comfortable seat/bed and make my way through security and customs. It never ceases to … Continue reading →

Found paradise

Posted on June 26, 2014 by Gary

We took a ferry to a (very) small island off the coast of France this afternoon. It was only a short ride of 20 minutes. The island is only 3 kilometres long and looks like a croissant. I’m pretty certain … Continue reading →

The Marrakesh Express

Posted on February 5, 2014 by Gary

This just annoyed me so I don’t blame anyone for ignoring it…I read this today. I thought Christ was all about love. It has nothing to do with Marrakesh (or Marrakech as some spell it). Nicktor arrived around 11:30 and … Continue reading →

Wobbly legs

Posted on February 27, 2011 by Gary

Another day that started blue and warm but passed through some horrid weather. While we loved Clifton Common, it was very cold on the top deck of the open topped bus! We searched in vain for the mythical Starbucks that … Continue reading →

19 Years

Posted on May 8, 2010 by Gary

So I was enjoying a little afternoon snooze in front of my Netbook, pretending to absorb information about eBooks while Mirinda happily gazed at the words on her Sony eReader when I was suddenly whipped back into full consciousness. In … Continue reading →
