A new resident at Papworth Towers is 2 year old rescue, Sadie. After 3 months without a dog in the house it's great to have some Springer Spaniel chaos again.

It was great to catch up with Rob, Pete and Phil who I shared a house with when we were at Swansea University from 1973 - 1976. It's only taken 49 years for us all to get together again!

A few pics from the top of the Forth Bridge. That full Scottish breakfast didn't seem like such a good idea going up in the hoist.

Just about to be taken up to the viewing platform at the top of the north pier. I'll try not to drop the phone into the Firth of Forth.

Having a nostalgic crawl around some of my favourite Edinburgh pubs from the 90's and noughties when I was actually working for a living. It was a tough gig being despatched up here but somebody had to do it.

Today we said farewell to our beautiful Maisy. She was a pain in the bum at times but was a gentle soul who was a massive part of our lives for over fifteen years. We will miss her so much.
