On the beach
Enjoying a cold and windy but pretty day on the beach in Wales
Where’s my snow???
The months have gone by. The weather stayed cold. The snow tried but with no success. So when the weather took a dip, I was hopeful. It looked partically hopeful when I was due to be up North during this weather but it was not to happen. Within 24 hours of leaving London, Liverpool warms...
Weekend away in North Wales
Bev decided to surprise me with a weekend away to north Wales – and then promptly tell me that she was going to surprise me, thus ruining the surprise. We stayed in a little hotel in a place I cannot pronounce that was situated on a small river. It was amazingly beautiful and amazingly cold....
The good old days
I had clean forgot about this until Jillers sent it through. It was uploaded way back in 2007, going back a bit now. I can’t help but laugh at our stupidity but hey you don’t get anywhere without risk… And the finished result..
Rebel Underground Bingo
My freedom is almost over. Its been no work and all play for Luke for a little while now. But alas its time to get back to work. Anyway, I’m not here to talk about work. I’m here to talk about bingo of the rebellious, draw all over your face type. Rebel Underground Bingo. In celebration...
Its Getting Cold – Video
Snow is still a novelty to me. Yesterday everything was white, the snow was falling and the sun was out so I went for a walk to take photos. I had no intention of making a video but as I had captured some clips while I was out I decided to quickly put something together....
Its getting cold
Well we had avoided the snow quite well compared to the rest of the country. The news announced every day of the impending doom from the crushing snow and cold that is the worst in 20 years, or something like that. All the while, outside my window it has been sunshine and blue skys with the 0*...
Hoi An
Its catch up time. This entry was partly written on the road, partly after the fact so there is potential for it to be disjointed, so I apologise. After getting off the train at Da Nang and stretching our legs, we caught a cab to the nearest bus stop which would take us through to Hoi...
Buses and the Mekong Delta
Apologies for the delay – its been hard to get anything written and posted while in Vietnam. I’m in London now so the next few posts shouldn’t be too far between. On our third day in Saigon, we did a tour out to the Mekong Delta. This trip was via bus and was about 4...
The long train journey
After what appeared to be a panic stricken moment where I managed to somehow change the lock code on my bag, I finally have it open through a painstakingly slow method of trial and error. Well, I’m currently on a train from Saigon to Denang. I’m in an air-conditioned “hard sleeper” birth which has...
Good Morning Vietnam
Well. We have arrived. After many months of planning then quitting my job and having a leaving party then moving to Brisbane then getting a job then quitting that job then having a leaving party then leaving then getting to Melbourne and having another leaving party, its finally happened. The last few days in Melbourne...
The Big Wet
In what can only be described as unbelievable, a massive storm decided to pummel Melbourne in submission a few weeks ago. The streets flooded, the trees were shredded and everyone generally lost the ability to drive or act in a civil fashion. Mum and dad had just arrived in town to see me, having only been in...
