Eating breakfast outside on the decking this morning was grrrreat!  Not only cos it was outside, but also cos I’m just so thankful for my housemate (not just because she’s the reason I get to hang out in a house like this…). A “game” of tennis (very funny), a HOT shower in the rain-like shower and [...]

What a cracker of a day!   Great weather, I mean.  A difficult day otherwise, really.  A thankful moment for finding my wallet hadn’t been dropped in the forest, but was under my car seat!  Then a grateful return to hang out with my housemate and a tongue-in-cheek cruise on the prom.

Well, this is it… The day that makes a farce of my ’365′.  The anomaly of the 29th of February which means that I should actually call this my ’366′. A somewhat unobtrusive day where I enjoyed the simple pleasure of a cup of coffee in escape from the rain, a chance to propose (in jest [...]

Its kind of ridiculous, but somehow walking along the Giant’s Causeway being almost lifting off my feet by the wind and being smacked in the face by hail and snow was the greatest thing in a while!  What a day, what weather, what a place to live! A dinner of fajitas cooked by someone else’s [...]

A much-needed lie-in (later somewhat diminished by a late night justified only by a great selection of cheese and some awesome port) and a potter around the shops.  Christmas shopping in a small town is just so much less hassle-y, its lovely.  Except it woulda skinned yeh. A night spent in alone – unwelcome at [...]

Walked along Portstewart Strand tonight and chatted with a friend.  This was great for several reasons… 1. Walking a pitch-dark beach at night on your own may be fun, but its not smart.  So, I’ve not done it in a while. 2. The weather was kinda that mix between mild and brisk, where you’ve been [...]

I went horseriding today!!  Such fun to discover that having a live animal between your legs isn’t as scary as it sounds!  Although I’m pretty sure I’d have been in trouble without the ten year old girl leading my horse… heheheheheheheheh…  Well – if I’d been plonked on the back of a horse at age [...]

Sitting outside on a mild October day with a coffee and good chat, feeling tired but knowing it was worth it.
