Hello, the Valencia 1/2M is later this afternoon. Instead of my usual parkrun journey this morning, it’s a catch up on yesterday’s pre-breakfast amble. I had two aims yesterday, the first being to check out the starting point for tomorrow’s (today’s) race and secondly to ease my body into a state of fluidity as I ...
It’s been a while since I baked anything, it’s definitely more than the six years since my Coeliac Disease diagnosis . I say bake, but it was really in its loosest sense, as I worked with the assistance of a bread making machine. The last bread maker retired a while ago after many years of ...
Digital images. I have 1000’s and it’s not until something happens with your lap top that you realise you should have a back up, (now done). I just snap now without any thought of the cost of developing – remember that? At the chemist too, not those chains that sprung up where you could have ...
I’m on a period of leave and work has been left behind for a week. Time to sniff out some simple pleasures and reconnect with breathing in the good things in life.
My weekend of harnessing the inner wee boy who squeels with glee as he zooms down the hill, pedalling harder, moving faster, wind whistling in my ears is sadly over.

A “rest” day today had me dodging the Ultra-Violet rays as the 1km out & 300m to go marshal at the Edinburgh parkrun, on Cramond foreshore. The sun made an appearance as did many parkrun tourists who had made the trip north to Scotland’s capital for the Edinburgh half & full marathon events tomorrow. As ...
But not here it seems….. It’s peeing down, it’s chilly and the sky is as grey as a mare’s tail. The bird feeder is a bit lonely, with the bird’s only popping out for some grub between the bouts of rain. I’m sure I saw a couple of ducks having a nibble earlier. The daffodils ...
Yesterday I did the Southwark parkrun and after a quick breakfast and shower I moved onto central London and the meeting point at Tavistock Square, the start for the #ourNHS march that took ten’s of thousands through the streets of London to a rally on Parliament Square. There was so much emotion on show yesterday ...
I found myself in London for work purposes today. I was taking part in the #ourNHS march and rally. Politics over but that’s what the mention in the video was referencing. So there I was and I decided to squeeze in a parkrun along with my compadre Dave before work began. Southwark parkrun was picked ...
