Just been to the Horizons Unlimited open day to see their new vans – these are the guys that made our van. Good to see some existing and some soon-to-be owners there. Most seem to know us already from this website – so hello to you all! Feel free to…
at last we are away again. seems like an age since we’ve been away. yesterday spent a few hours snowboarding which was great. both improved hugely though ryan got hit in the head by someones snowboard. not quite a broken nose but more surprising was it hit me and not…
Hoorah! We’re managing to get things sorted. We still can’t leave the UK for long (for reasons that will soon become apparent, and no, nothing to do with the Police!). We’re off to Scotland on 8th August via Tamworth for a few days snowboarding practice, then continue north to spend…
I decided I’ve been working so hard I deserve a new toy. Okay – that may be open to some debate considering I’ve only done around 15 days in the last year – but even so – Mel agreed! Most excellent toy – half the fun is repairing it! Its…

Thanks to my parents for our zorbing trip as one of our Christmas presents of Zorbing. We went down to Zorb South in Dorset for a wet ride. It was actually really good fun – Mel screamed with laughter all the way down. Only downside is the price – no…
For our sins, on 31 May 2009 we went up to Edinburgh for a long weekend and ran the Edinburgh marathon. Our first. Unfortunately, the weather was superb and probably the hottest weekend in Edinburgh for years – so not ideal for running. Of 13,000 full marathon runners, only…
We’ve had a few people ask what we’re up to now as we’ve been home for a month and been very quiet. Are the travels over? Hell no! 🙂 We’re working on a couple of projects which mean we’ll have to be in the UK for a few months, and…
