"I fancy Northern Spain .“

“Uhh! What?"

“I'd like to go to Northern Spain.”

“Gill, its seven o’clock.”

“I know but you’ve got to have something to look forward to haven’t you ?”

“I’m looking forward to my ...

I have never written a blog before, but thought it would be useful to make some notes to help me remember organising my florida trip along with a place for keeping track of my notes. Although the main task of booking the trip has been complete (sometime last September) I still have to make sure that it doesn't turn into a tacky 2 week Walt Disne...

Just a few photos from our rather cold trip to the Peak District, which was a winter wonderland of snow. When the sunlight caught the right angle of the snow on the ground and on the trees it sparkled like tiny diamonds, so beautiful. Ate some gorgeous homemade food in the tearooms - yum!!

So a tad over 3 weeks to go now. I really dont know if I have missed anything in all my preparations of late.

I have pulled out the old faithful backpack and am repeatedly deciding what to take / not to take. First few nights accomodation are all taken care in a few early destinations, I am doing that to slowly ease myself out of the comf...

Monday 9 February 2009, 2.48pm, on the train from Manchester to London I can barely believe I'm actually on this train. Seven days later than I was supposed to be, mind, but finally I am on it. For those of you not playing along at home, the UK was blanketed with snow last weekend, the worst in eighteen years, and trains, planes and automobiles ...

4th May 2008: Milovaig - Armadale: We have requested our breakfast to be at 7.30am today as we have a long day planned to get back to Inverness. We have booked our ferry from Armadale to get to Mallaig on the mainland. From there, we will take the famous "Road to the Isles" (from the opposite direction of Fort William). However, after rushing al...

Chatted briefly with the old timer before having breakfast. Had some peach melba yogurt - I can't say there was any melba in the yogurt, only tiny little bits of unidentifiable matter. Perhaps in the UK, melba means "little bits of insects". Had a bun instead of toast today - a little stale. It was the same breakfast **** as yesterday, yet I som...

Today was to be an even longer day. Headed back out to the ground fairly early to again make sure that we didnt miss a ball. It was a long day as england were still batting and batting well. But this didnt stop us from giving our support and giving everything we had to the pommies. Eventually the tides turned and England finished their innings w...
