I drove over to Stratford-upon-Avon today to meet up with my good friend, Ian McLean.
Trying to get into the town centre on a Friday AND park the car, was always going to be a problem, so we walked from Ian’s to Cox’s Yard, and found a watering-hole that overlooked the river. Initially, a good idea, but abandoned when the wind got to force 8!!! Cue, a couple a comfy sofas on-site with a patio heater trained on them!!
Lunch lasted ages – in a good way – and we then walked back to Ian’s with just time for a cuppa before heading home. The journey back was a typical Friday on the M6: traffic, traffic and more traffic – and to keep it interesting, a two-mile tail-back leading to my exit, the A14. Ahh, the joys of motoring!!! I eventually got home around 4pm – a 58 mile journey that normally takes an hour, took 50% longer!
I got into blogging quite late in life, not publishing my first post until 2004 – well into my 40s! My lifelong love of technology and communication (in all its forms), together with a fondness for the art of writing seemed to be the perfect combination to contribute a few words to the online community. But I’m no Samuel Pepys! If you’re looking for deep and meaningful comments on a variety of subjects, then you’ve arrived at the wrong site! I only pen for pleasure! On average, my posts appear about twice per month, covering family & friends, cinema visits, eating out, holiday experiences and techy stuff. Oh, and as this is my hobby, there are no sponsored links nor adverts here – it’s all done with love!
I hope you find it enjoyable, interesting and occasionally, even helpful!
