Holiday 2012: Day 5

Posted inFilms/TV, ReflectionsNo Comments
Day five was to be our last day on the Isle of Wight, but our ferry wasn't until 4:30, so we had time to have one last cool day. Packing everything into the car was speedy and efficient, Jane is very good like that. Our first stop of the day was at Robin Hill. It had some nice woodland, cool…

Day four brought with it a visit to Blackgang Chine: A name that has resonated throughout my life. My Mum and Dad took David and me there years and years ago, not that I remember the place at all, just the name. Although I doubt it was as impressive back then as it is now, there are some aspects that…

Jane, Claire, Lewis, Ethan and I popped over to the Isle of Wight today, a little place called Whitecliff Bay. The ferry ride was peaceful enough, we went up to the top deck and soaked in the beautiful sea air. I do so miss the sea air. When we got to the Isle of Wight, Claire thought she'd avoid traffic…

Quiet week

Posted inReflectionsNo Comments
Last week was... quiet, not a lot happened. I found out Barclays closed my bank account because it was inactive, and wanted me to spend £80 on a passport to re-open it. Rubbish. Jane was off for a few days last week, her appendix was grumbling, giving her jip. Poor girl. Next week will be quiet in a different kind…
