Couple of Days of Work & a Big “Pikey Dodging” Cycle Ride

Tuesday, 5th June 2018

The weekend was dominated by two days of work, but at least it was fun work – mostly gorge bashing with super exciting big jumps in to pools of lovely cool Lakeland water…

More awesome Bank Holiday weather

Tuesday, 29th May 2018

While the south of England is cloaked in fog and Birmingham suffers from flash flooding the north west is continuing to bask in glorious wall-to-wall sunshine!

Awesome Multi-Activity Weather in the Lakes

Tuesday, 8th May 2018

When the weather is as good as this the Lakes are unbeatable! Three super sunny days on a bank holiday weekend – brilliant. But for once we didn’t give every day over to rock climbing. Instead we made a plan that had each day dedicated to a different outdoor pursuit…

The National Trust; For ever, for everyone

Tuesday, 1st May 2018

The bold proclamation of the National Trust – For ever, for everyone. It sounds great doesn’t it? The thing is, having spent six months of 2017 as a NT employee, I have a worrying feeling about the organisation that has motivated me to put these words together…

Always inventing stuff – Mark Vallance

Tuesday, 24th April 2018

Pete was working today, teaching micro navigation, so Zac and I went for a bumble.

Panoramic Route

Saturday, 24th March 2018

After our amazing safari experience the final part of our South African adventure was to take in the Panoramic Route on our way back to Johannesburg…

Sabi Sand Game Reserve Safari

Saturday, 24th March 2018

This was it, the main event, the most exciting part of our trip to South Africa – a Safari…

Waterval Boven

Saturday, 24th March 2018

The next leg of our South African adventure was Waterfall Boven. I’ve been to Waterval Boven before on an international meet run by the Mountain Club of South Africa. It’s a great sport climbing venue, with a few high quality trad lines too, but it’s certainly the tough sport climbing here that gives it international …
