Leaving Cheltenham
This is a top pick! Thanks to everyone for giving me a great send off from Cheltenham (some of you twice). I've been there a number of years so it was sad to leave and say goodbye to you all. Keep in touch and at the very least I'll see you all again at the Gold Cup in a ...
Last Day at School for a year!
This is a top pick! Today marked the last day at school for Jamie and Zach for a whole year, and the start of their exciting adventure. They've had a busy week saying goodbye to friends, and both did a fabulous "show and tell" about where they will be travelling during the ...
Windrush
The weather today is particularly rainy but the locals say the game is still on, so we potter on up to the venue, a tiny village called Windrush. The ground has several lumps and slopes, and it is very wet when we get there so John W. and I take a wee ...
Hello Sunny Bin Witch
Bags packed, boarding passes printed, let's go! When you next hear from us we should be in Singapore. C'ya bye! P.S All the pictures on this entry are of the food we are eating while we're away, just so Mark can use the links to upload the pics to his ...
Kingsholm
I drag myself up at 8.30 in order to meet the 9am breakfast deadline and force down more thoroughly mediocre scrambled eggs and toast. The Cleeve Hill track again beckons and I decide to charge directly up to the summit without regard for trail or ...
Leaving Night Out
This is my first entry and just a test really. I have attached a couple of photos for you to look at. Katherine is not in any of them because she was very drunk and i did'nt see her. (Either that or i was very drunk and she did'nt wanna see me.) ...
Arrival in Cheltenham
... me there is a bus up the hill to the hotel at 4.15pm. This gives me 45 minutes to sample the gastronomic delights of Cheltenham's bus depot district, which I do at the 'Paris Cafe'. Despite the name, it is not croissants, coffee in tiny cups and surly ...
Birdlip
I am done for the tour now, sitting out the final game at the Birdlip & Brimpsfield Cricket Club. We duck in for a quick lunch in the large gardens of the Royal George pub then roll up in a leisurely fashion to the ground. It is set atop a hill with a ...
Painswick
They only serve breakfast until 9am at this hotel, so I am forced to wake up earlier than I would like. After another unfulfilling breakfast, I decide to go for a walk up the hill behind the hotel. A self-important sign at the point where road becomes ...
sad return
sadly we're had to take a detour back home as Julies dad became unwell and passed away last week. We'll update you when we know what we are doing next. Julie and ...
And so it begins
So this is it, after at least 6 months of planning, saving & working, the day of departure has arrived at last. Its now 15.30 and we are about to set off to Heathrow and onto Rio from there. Don't know how long it'll be till we post the first photo's and ...
Frocester
Following the pattern of late, today dawns drizzly and cricket seems almost like an afterthought. There is a phenomenon associated with touring BOCC teams known as "Tour Brain". Tour Brain occurs when the collective members of the squad cannot come to ...
Dowdeswell
... straight to the camping ground was there? And it was only 1:00am wasn't it? What better time then to drive down to Cheltenham? So we did and then parked in a service area parking lot for forty winks, long overdue considering the early start the previous ...
Gloucester.
This will be my first ever 'declaration' game, in which one team bats until they are ready to declare and then the other team has to try and beat that score. Our location is Gloucester and our opponents are Gloucester City Winget. They are apparently ...
Day 62 - Sweet Caroline
... back uphill to the heathland and, dodging local golfers, to Cleeve Hill, another spot reknowned for its wonderful views of Cheltenham, Gloucestershire and the Cotswolds in general. On the way down to Dowdeswell Reservoir where this section ends I ...
Day 63 - Rest Day
A chance to rest, deal with 'personal admin', update the blog and catch up with my lovely friend, Ruth. Thanks Ruth! ...
Cheltenham
22/5/09 Well I made it home to Cheltenham. I have a week now to see more friends and family before my next trip starts to the middle east- Egypt, Israel and Jordan. I think the week will just about be enought time to chill out and prepare for the next ...
Back Home
Please note, this is supposed to be the last entry. you probably want to read number 40 first, which i wrote in auckland but forgot to post. . Hello. This is the last blog entry. thats it. All that remains is to sum up a little and give ...
Getting close
Things are approaching quickly now. but feeling strangely calm, maybe its denial because although im doing well in preparation, i still have a lot to do in a rapidly decreasing period. but good news this week, my passport and tickets are now physically ...
Back to the UK
After landing in Bristol and taking 2 buses and a train, I made it back to my good friends' in the Cotswolds. And I got the nastiest cold you ever don't want to have. So, laying low for 2 days, I prepared for what would be the last event of my trip . . ...
Cheltenham
I arived back in Cheltenham at 11pm exhausted. Walked back home past the drunken Idiots in Cheltenham highstreet to see Mum and Davo just leaving to pick me up from the bus station- a bit late!! :-) We chatted, Iate some nice cheese and then I slept ...
Motoring and visiting
So, Carola and I rented a car for the weekend, her with friday off, and so went down south. Myself doing most of the driving because even though I'm an American, I am the one more used to driving on the left side--Germans drive right as well. Figure ...
Leaving you out in the cold
This entry will be my last for a while. Writing in internet cafes, and without my iBook (which I thankfully left at home due to its weight and value), is so incredibly inconvenient it has felt like a burden from day 2. And burden was what I hoped to ...
Pure Gold!
... . The roar of the crowd was as deafening as anything I've experienced at international football matches across Europe. MENTAL. Surely Cheltenham couldn't match that level of noise and entertainment?! Well...actually, it could! Now don't get me wrong - I ...
Dead Good: Icons 6ft Under
I threw a house party at the cottage by way of a leaving doo, the theme was Dead Good: Icons 6ft Under. It was a typically debauched affair, I hope you like the ...
Reflecting on SA
I've changed the date on this entry so it appears first, I'm getting very sick of looking at the party entry! Ever since I left Africa I've wanted to get something on Travelpod about my time there, so here goes.... Best 3 days in Africa - Walk to ...
The End
Well as you probably know the actual travelling part of my trip went a bit wrong when I got stuck in Antigua for a while, but eventually escaped her clutches and have now made it back to the UK, so I thought I'd better round this blog up. Before ...
Leaving home...
Well I lasted a week back at home in Cheltenham, seeing relitives but now it is time to leave again - the friends wil have to wait till next time :-) Catherine (my Sister) is picking me up and taking me to london for a couple of ...
Cheltenham
Well, In my last couple of entries I lied quite a bit........ I actually went home for Christmas and supprised everyone. The look on my Families face when I jumped out of them was priceless! The past 7 months have gone quickly - so much so I havnt ...
