Church House Weston super Mare

We have nothing of interest to report.

We made it Aberystwyth via Cymer Abbey and Harlech Castle. The Castle itself was closed due to industrial action though - yay. We got into Aberystwyth early as a result and just took it easy. Strolled around town, went to the castle. Nigel even managed to get some really nice shots of the sun sett...

In six weeks time I should be in a hotel at Gatwick, getting ready to go to Crete to look at the spring flowers. At least, that is what Chris will be doing. I'll be there for the scenery, the rocks and the walking. And the food and the wine.

Chris has wanted to do this since almost our first trip to Crete. Our first trip to Crete was in...

Many months ago, in a frenzy of enthusiasm for all things literary, I booked for Liz and I to go to a whole load of events at this year's Bath Literature Festival. In fact, checking through the list, I bought tickets to THIRTEEN events. The cost did rack up a bit, but I have to say that it was worth every penny. Not only did we attend some wonde...

Before I start, may I apologise for the lame, smutty and very obvious joke in the 20th paragraph below. I just couldn't resist.

The last two weeks have been rather different to say the least.

For the first time in my working life, I am now unemployed.

It was my choice. Without giving up my job, I would not have been ...

When I handed my notice in at work three months ago, this whole trip still seemed way out there. Something I knew was happening, but I just couldn't seem to convince myself that this was really my life now.
But now, all of a sudden and remarkably clear-headed after a leaving do which somehow involved being in the same pub for more than half ...

Well welcome to a very early morning, after a quick look outside to check on the weather we could see that there was a slight snowfall over night just a few inches to add to the drama of our last day. The shuttle bus was scheduled in for 4.15am, yeah I know there's two quarter past fours in a day who knew. We sneaked out of the room without waki...

Two quirky globe trotters embark on a whirlwind adventure, where they intend to travel the seven seas without forking out a penny.Basically, we have 36 hours to get as far away from Bristol as humanly possible...without paying anything. Sounds amazing, we know! But, we need the help of you beautiful people! Please donate whatever you can - it's ...

Today was the trip to Bath, I have to admit I was slightly reluctant to go because of all the traveling I'd done over the Midterm break, but I'm really glad I did. Bath is a former Roman site constructed for public bathing as well as social interaction. It was abandoned when the Romans left Britain and was covered up by mud and other elements un...

Friday:
Well, today is the big day, where I fly out to Utah again. This is gonna be another big adventure as I am flying out to make a film, or star in one I should say.
While I was over in Utah in the summer seeing old friends from BYU, where I studied at, I met up with my best pal and roommate, Jerry Garcia. He was a film major at Un...

Some simple observations on Stonehenge and Bath... Stonehenge: - It's cold and windy - There's grass. It's green. Quite possibly because it's allways raining here. I already have a cold (started sniffling as the plane was pulling in to KL - a premonition?) - There are no nekkid witches dancing around as far as I can tell. (I was attempting to do...
