Back to the plan and we headed to Santiago. This is the first stop to a place where I have some very happy memories of holidays with my parents during the 1990s. I’m trying to work out the last time I was here, and it must when I was around 16 years old. Maybe…
We decided to skip the last day of the festival (4th July). We were pretty tired and worn out and there was only Mastodon we really wanted to see, so we packed up the trusty festival cart and headed back to the car. Thankfully it was safe and as we left her. After a…
So today, we decided that today (July 3rd) would be our last day at the festival. We started to get really worn out! Ha! Showing my age!!! There was only one band I really wanted to see on the Saturday – Mastodon, but I’ve seen them a few times before, and although they are…
Today was a very special day at the festival. In January we had an email announcing that we could apply to have a wedding ceremony at the ResuChapel. It was not a legally binding ceremony, but it got us plotting a surprise. We decided to apply and we managed to get a space. We…

We love a holiday. We’re always planning ahead. Its something to look forward to This year’s trip is a bit of an adventure – by car, sea, and air. We’re leaving Bridgend on Sunday 28th June, heading to Plymouth for the Brittany Ferries overnight sailing to Santander. Twenty-four hours at sea, arriving Monday afternoon.…
Right then. I’ve been saying I’ll start a proper blog for years. The thing is, I do a lot of stuff across a lot of different areas and none of the usual places quite fit all of it. LinkedIn is fine for the professional bits. X/Twitter is a mess. And Instagram isn’t exactly the…
