This is not a sight you want to see out the front of your car at 57 mph but this is what Tracy and I were confronted with yesterday on the way to London to attend the Festival of Remembrance at the Royal Albert Hall. As you can tell from the picture, the weather was … Continue reading YIKES!
We have been in our new house a month now and we are all unboxed and tidy… Yeh! Right! But we will be all sorted by Christmas I am sure! Apart from the obvious of settling in we have had a new patio paid to take the new hot tub… a retirement treat to us … Continue reading House Update
When Tracy and I got together we lived apart, in our own houses, for quite a while but finally moved into our current house as our first home together. At that time, when we bought it over 2 years ago, I wanted a house of a similar size to the one I had before; not … Continue reading On The Move Again
We will be moving house at the end of august (again!) and this will mark a significant milestone in my life… it is the first house bought jointly with my lovely wife Tracy.

It has been 14 months now since Sally’s funeral and during that time her urn has been in the dining room waiting for me to decide what to do. We hadn’t discussed what she wanted done with her ashes and so I wanted to do something she would have wanted – a while back I … Continue reading Sally Laid to Rest

Tracy and I are flipping between each others houses and this is time-consuming… not only with the travel but it takes a lot of our time away from our studies constantly arranging things.
