So was that the summer then?

In the interest of being able to read back on this in years to come and reminisce about what was going on, I should have said something about the weather recently I think. But, I blinked, and it's gone now. Got a barbecue lined up for this Saturday, ...

Wedding video and new jeans

Had a slightly rum Saturday night out but then a lovely Sunday afternoon to follow. Felt a bit queasy on Saturday so although we went out to Folkestone in the day, and had lunch at The Whole World Cafe (felty queasy before we went there, certainly no...

Our actual first day in Key West

I realise that my previous post about our first day in Key West a) didn't contain any info, b) had things from our second day on the map, and c) has slipped down the page and no-one will read it. So here at last is the first part of our journey. Clar...

All holiday photos now here

In a flickr set, there are a lot of duplicates though and no title for most of them, so even if you care what you're looking at, you won't know.Still writing up all the bars and that that we went to, as I like to do. I am slowing down / fizzling out ...

Folkestone double death plunge smash horror tragedy!

Yoinks, yesterday someone chucked themselves off the roof of Bouverie Square in Folkestone, and today the end of our road was sealed off by police because of a "scene". Police were stopping anyone getting close to what had happened, so a) we had to w...

We saw this

Strange halo effect around the sun, did you get it here? It was mad, I have tried to photo it but couldn't get back far enough. How do you get further away from the sun?Aha, reflected in my new shades! We really did see this in the sky though....

And we're back from Key West

Booked Key West

In a stark contrast to last year's no flying all year, we're starting already with a stay here in April. Nice! I really liked Key West when we went there before. That was a weekender from Miami, but this time we're there for a whole week, for Kev and...

Weekend! Curry! Spazzy twitches! Everything!

Great weekend, bailed out of work slightly early and got the train to Mum and Dad's, for a nice long relaxing weekend. As previously mentioned, Clare was in London drinking and dancing with her friends, and definitely not lighting fires, and I was he...

Welcome to Miami!

Or, rather, from Miami, or even (by the time I write this up) hello from England, Miami sends its regards. Just BACK from a trip to the US of States to visit Clare's bro and sister-in-law in the pan-handle bit of the Americas. Tiring flight over to M...

Yeah as I say it was before I lived there

Oh no, I sounded like one of those "Folkestone Arts" types... I loved Fresh and Wild, most people do, but I'm just saying that some people (the early adopter bohemian meeja types who lived in Stokey in the early '90s) see all chains as bad, but then ...

The perfect crime

After the fabulous treat of yesterday evening (sausage, beans and fried potatoes for tea AND two episodes of Lovejoy), this morning's long wait outside the office was probably due. No keyholder turned up for over an hour, so I couldn't get into the b...

Doctor Doctor please

I thought Doctor Who was great this week, a trip back in time to 1869 and Charles Dickens, as played by Simon Callow. We went to his one man show a few years back all about Dickens, funny to see that crossing over with the Doctor.www.scifi.com says B...
