  What did we do at the weekend you ask? Why didn’t I update? Very simply we had guests. On Saturday we took them round York in the rain. On Sunday we took them around Richmond and Easby. In the rain. In between, we huddled in the house and liste...

• Aunts and panthers and bikes, oh my…

  So. Firstly I have solved my bike problem. If you remember, at some point in the recent past I posted a couple of times that my bike was making horrible, scary rattling noises all the time. Yesterday I gave the bike the washing of a lifetime. I washe...

• The McRoadTrip – Part Seven

  Today we bid a sad farewell to tales of Bonny Scotland, but let’s go out with a bang. We certainly did (count the bangs if you don’t believe me). Though in future I think I’d prefer to go out with a Banff. Banff was lovely. Anyway. ...

  Welcome back to the wacky world of me after a weekend off. And straight back in to the Scottish road trip. Here’s the somewhat impressive route for Day 6: We started the day in Ullapool and guess what? The sky is steely grey. It wasn’t a...

  Now this… this on a map looks like an impressive route!   Day five we awoke refreshed and pleased, with a beautiful blue sky, brisk temperatures that suggested we were far closer to Polar Bear heaven than we’re both used to, and lovely ...

  Well, to be honest, I’m a bit busy, and I’ll try and write something a little more interesting, but first there are developments in my book promotion that I’m just too dizzy about to leave out: The guy who runs Parmenion Books has ...

  This weekend I have eaten Babar’s bodyweight in food. Beginning Thursday, our village pub started doing food once again after around a year off and so, of course, we had to have a family and friends meal to celebrate. (Oh, by the way, for the p...

• Gradual update

  Posted on Friday July 17th, 2009 at 04:12 in books, Dogs, house, information, weather, odd news, rain, flood

  Actually, I’ll almost certainly add to this post throughout the day. I’m actually at home and not at work, partially due to the roads being flooded, which is not condusive to a Paul Revere style journey of six miles along tiny country roa...

  ‘Scuse me while I pea myself… Mmm. That’s better. Interesting. Just looked out of the window at my motorbike. There are raindrops on the handlebar, fork and display area. The seat and the rest of the chassis is bone dry. The is one ...

• Saturday short

  Posted on Saturday June 6th, 2009 at 06:07 in books, Photography, information, website, promotion, yorkshire, rain

  It has to be a short update due to the many things to do today. I finally updated the website. There’s actually a photo of me that doesn’t involve me holding a beer, leering, capering or covered in anything fruity. That was a hard shot to...
