What we didn’t do on our Wales holiday
Back in 2024, when we went to Northumberland for our summer holiday, I posted a list of the places that we didn't go to but had considered. I didn't publish a list last year, as I knew we were going back to Wales this year. But we've decided we'll be going to the Yorkshire Coast...

Our 2026 holiday: Penrhyn Castle
As members, it's inevitable that we would end up at a National Trust property in Wales. We didn't manage to squeeze in Pehrhyn Castle on last year's holiday, but we made an afternoon visit this year.

Discover its impressive Great Hall, expansive grounds, and essential visitor information for your next visit to this historic site.

We’re in Wales
As mentioned at the start of the month, we're off to Wales again for our summer holiday, and by the time you read this, we should have been there a couple of days. We're staying near Conwy again, in a rented holiday cottage, as a group of five - me, Christine, our ten-year-old and my...

Jumping into July
Here we are, into the latter half of the year. I'm continuing to recover, and this month sees us go on our annual summer holiday. Recovery update I'm slowly regaining mobility in my arms, following my fall, and I'm generally in less pain now. I'm still not fully back to normal, but may be closer...
