Dear all, Apologies for this being the first proper journal entry since I have been on the trail. I have only had a couple of opportunities to access the internet and have either not had the time to update the journal or the access has been too slow.... Read more >

Today's the day!

Well, after all my preparations, nerves, saving money, trips to see people before I leave, buying things to take with me (which I probably won't be able to fit in) etc etc, the time has come!! My flight leaves at half nine tonight from Glasgow, so will ... Read more >

London

Hi all, Hopefully I can defy my techonological ineptness and figure out how to put something on here! Anyway, I arrived here in London a couple of days ago courtesy of Gulf Air. The flight went fairly smoothly, managed to catch up with plenty sleep ... Read more >

Counting down the days...

Thu, 13 Nov 2008 | By stephen_wright | Views [500]

 It’s just under a week now until V-day (i.e. until I set off for Vietnam) and I’m growing gradually more and more nervous. So much to do in so little time, but thankfully I have nothing else holding me back (i.e. I'm unemployed). This is not without ... Read more >

Shopping in Ipswich!

My first day was spent relaxing and settling in and catching up on some sleep! I also went for a walk around the town and applied for some more nannying positions (still no job as yet!). In the afternoon Joan took me to meet her sister Sian and her gorgeous ... Read more >

Overall impressions

Fri, 19 Mar 2010 | By wrdc60 | Views [380]

UK was 10 degrees warmer than the rest of the countries I visited but had worse weather damage,  potholes, on the roads than these other countries. Cycling in the winter can be comfortable, interesting and rewarding but its a bit slower and lonely compared ... Read more >

Isle of Man 2015

Wed, 11 Nov 2015 | By shaz | Views [263]

A quick weekend getaway to a British Isle. I enjoyed manx kippers and cycling the TT course with an electric bike. Not sure if I could have done it with a normal peddle bike. The weather was not kind but the day of the bike ride it was cold but the sun ... Read more >

Welcome To Wanderland

I longed for that one bookshop where I could lose myself completely…and finally, I’d found her. In a small, dark, back street just off the Rue De Rivoli, reminding me of Harry Potter; cobbled and full of mystery, I felt a force pull me towards the thick ... Read more >
