December was busy, as Decembers so often are, and fairly eventful. Jayne left her job and returned to her previous one, which I am quite happy about. I will see a lot more of her now because the hours are more sociable, with more rest days and she doesn’t have to factor in long commutes. […]

I returned to winning ways with my Premium Bonds this month, but unfortunately the £100 was not nearly enough to make up for all the extra expense in November. And there was a lot of extra expense!

What a busy month this was. It started in Glasgow, as I had gone up there with work at the end of September. I flew back down to Crawley on the 2nd and then after work on the 3rd I went up to Essex on the motorbike. Which was bloody cold. I had forgotten how […]

This was a good month in many ways. Apart from anything else, there was my birthday at the end of the month. 62. How the bloody hell did that happen? The birthday fell on a Sunday so our daughter and son-in-law paid a visit and we went out for lunch at our local. The weather […]

Another good month. Decent dry weather coincided with weekends, bank holidays ,and Friday afternoons often enough for me to get out on the bike quite a bit. I got to go out ten times. A couple of those were for local events, but the rest of the time I was out visiting various places in […]

For a change I can say that this was unequivocally a good month. Naturally, A lot of this feeling is a result of the election at the start of the month and the pleasure of seeing people like Liz Truss and Jacob Rees-Mogg get dumped by their electorate. While still in the afterglow of that […]

June was a bit of an anti-climax after all the excitement of going over to Germany in May, but although I didn’t get as far as Cologne this month, at least I got out on my bike for more than just local trips. I had a couple of 100+ mile days, one up to Essex […]

Another damp, dull and dreary month. Basically it was just a slightly shorter version of January. Its enough to drive you to drink, and in my case it actually did because I opened up a bottle of wine and drank the lot, though it did take me four days to get through it all because […]

I know its not just me that feels like January lasted for ever. Everybody was joking about it on Twitter so much that it became a cliche, but it really did seem to drag on. Obviously it has been miserable and cold, but its winter, and although we had a little bit of snow it […]

December is a funny old month. It can just slip by as you focus on getting this crappy year over and hope than the next one will be better somehow. Towards the end of the month a lot of people, especially those with children, knock of for Christmas a week early, making work difficult because […]
