Our holiday in sketches on the lodge chalkboard When you think of Center Parcs most people think adventure, outdoor activity, action, cycling, and most probably able-bodied, not necessarily thinking it would be the ideal holiday for a someone with wheels.

Wimpole Estate – down on the farm
Earlier this month I was invited as part of a group of individuals to Wimpole Estate in Cambridge. My role was to take part in a tour of the farm and to mention and discuss any access issues that arose.

While staying at Douglas House in Oxford recently, a friend and I decided to check out a local spa for some chill time and a bit of a pampering.

Jungle Life – Urban Jungle
Some of best discoveries can be found in the city you thought you knew. After seeing photos on my Facebook news feed of friends eating cake and drinking tea amongst exotic plants and trees I was becoming envious, I figured they must be on holiday in some tropical paradise. But oh no, after closer… Continue reading Jungle Life – Urban Jungle

I’m blogging
So it seems I've decided to/been persuaded to start a blog.Whenever friends and I are out we always end up discussing, critiquing, analysing where we are and what we are doing. From talking about the food we are eating, the soap in the toilets, the awful bus journey to our destination, anything and everything we… Continue reading I’m blogging
