I feel like I am getting properly settled in Scotland now. Jayne has now been up here a couple of months, and has started working, so everything feels more normal, and we are getting into a bit of a routine. Can it really only be about 6 months since we came up on holiday and […]

June is the month when I think it is fair to say that I really moved to Scotland. We are still in the process of moving bit-by-bit, but in June I spent most of the time in Scotland, while Jayne was mostly in England. She has been unhappy because she just wants to get moved, […]

I guess it was inevitable that, after a January that seemed to go on for ever, February passed by in a flash. I know it is a short month, indeed the shortest month, but it still felt like it was a week shorter than a normal month rather than just a couple of days.

After the excitement and stimulation of September, and the city break in Madrid, October was considerably less eventful for me, although it was a different story for Jayne. After me spending my birthday in Madrid, Jayne spent her birth day on a cruise ship in the Med. It might sound a bit strange for us […]

Already? Where has this year gone? Three quarters of the way through the year and it feels like nothing has really happened. I guess that makes me lucky really because people in war zones like Ukraine, Gaza and Chicago would love to feel that nothing has happened. On the other hand, September was a bit […]

An eventful month, one way or another. In the first three weeks I managed to get out quite a bit on the motorbike, making the most of it before everything gets colder, darker and wetter. I did trips out to Lewes, Arundel, Dorking and Camberley checking out record fairs and shops, but also found myself […]

Looking back, July seems to be a month where I got out more than usual but also managed to do a lot more indoors things as well. I don’t understand how that works. Jayne and I got to go out together a few times because her shift pattern was kind to us this month, and […]

March was quite eventful, and also turned out to be quite an expensive month for us.

My levels of busy-ness at work tend to fluctuate, depending on what is going on and my own levels of energy and enthusiasm. Because of the nature of my job I can’t go into details but it was all getting very busy indeed in February. We are supposed to have short days on Fridays but […]

I know I am not alone in feeling like January went on forever this year. I don’t think I actually did much because I spent most of the last 8 weeks of the month wondering when it would be over. Despite the number of storms we had, I managed to get out a few times […]
