Its getting to that time of year again – the clocks go back this weekend here in the UK, signalling the end of British Summer Time. It means it will be light again in the morning when I get (for a few weeks at least) but its going to be…
Some good reading
I’ve been reading The Lord of the Rings for the past week or so for the first time since I was at school (over 20 years ago!!!) Having seen all the films (The Lord of the Rings Trilogy (Extended Edition Box Set)) when they came out and then asking Santa…

Climbing Everest for Children 1st

We all headed off for a wander in the woods of Mugdock Park last Sunday to raise some funds for Marie Curie Cancer Care. It was a surpisingly sunny day through in the West near Milngavie considering the downpour that was occuring through here in Embra. Steven stayed at home…
Its official
For the first time since I was 17 I am bikeless through choice! (broken bones and bent bikes were the other reasons) Not sure whether to be elated at selling it for a good price or sad to be bikeless. Will see how I feel in the next weeks. Going…
