With an epic holiday at the end of March and lasting for three weeks, it meant my regular monthly blog updates took a bit of a hit. Not only was a physically away from my PC where I like to sit and go through the photos to make the post, but, on my return I […]
The month of February whizzed by. January felt like it would never end and as I type this we are already in March. The 1st March has been sunny and bright but a bit nippy. February generally was quite a grey month with the odd bit of sunshine here and there but cold interspersed with […]
It feels like just yesterday I was watching the fireworks on BBC One but simulateously feels as if the month of January was the longest ever. It just never ended! It is day 32/365. 8.7% of the year complete. Usually I am financially careful in my life but this past month I was particularly mindful […]
Last year, and for each year right back to 2016, around the final day of the year or beginning of the next, I have written a yearly blog post review and selected a lot of photos. I would always underestimate how long it would take and end up, rather bizarrely, getting stressed. This year, I decided […]
December! The month started off slow but with social engagements starting to happen in quick succession it soon shot by and within the blink of an eye the month has gone. I booked the 24th off of work and got the train from Nottingham to Manchester and then bus to Tiff’s. For the first time, […]
October whizzed by. It is now November?! Below are some photo highlights from the month. A busy month, as always. Cycling as much as ever. This month I had two bicycle punctures. I haven’t had one for ages. It may be the time of year or it may be that my tyre is wearing out. […]
Today was another Kidical Mass ride and what a success it was! The joy on the riders’ faces and nearly all spectators’, except a couple of momentarily delayed drivers, was glowing! At today’s ride, we had a turnout of 50! All of our last 7 rides before this have been superb. Considering it was the […]
With a coldness in the air and an ever increasing desire to turn on my central heating, it is certainly now October. September is over and in this blog post I shall put together a little photo review of the month gone by. As always I have been cycling a lot. And as I have […]
Back on Saturday 22nd June 2024, the 7th Kidical Mass Nottingham took place! As per most of the others, I have created a photo / video blog post here. I have usually posted the others within days but this one I haven’t got around to doing. Life comes at you fast. With a busy time […]
I am sure it was just the 1st August a couple of days ago. We are now approaching the end of the month. I am not sure how it happened. To keep up the consistency of posting with my month review in photos, here is the slightly delayed review of July 2024. To begin creating […]
Delay. Ahhh. I blinked and one week has passed. I am away this Saturday too. I imagine I will publish this on the 9th. This being the case, that’s roughly 44% of the year gone. This month I started, albeit briefly, to try to wake up earlier. I got stuff done before the day started. […]
Dear Diary, I am typing this at the end of the first day of April. We are somehow 25.1% of the way through the year of 2024. As per my new tradition, as with each month, so far, January and February, I now do a photo review. As each month passes, I look back which […]
Dear Diary, As with January, I have decided to review February and put some photos of the month here. It gives me a reason to reflect on the many photos I take. The way I have done it before with the yearly review means that because of the hundreds and hundreds of photos I have […]
Dear Diary, Quick update. Today is 32/366. 8.7% of the year is already complete. It feels like I have blinked and the month has gone but equally, as it is January, the month after festivities and extended break of Christmas, it seems to have lasted a long time. So far this month I have kept […]
Dear Diary, The first full week of 2024 has come to an end and I can safely say I have abided by one of my New Year’s Resolutions – to be more active. I did set numerous others which I have broken, including getting to bed earlier, he writes at 1.40am, but increasing my activity […]
Wooah. That took a while. I have spent some time on the very last day of 2023, and in truth a few days after, reflecting on the year gone by. The main way this was done was by looking at all of the photos I have taken from the year. There were a lot of […]
This weekend just gone I was cycling everyday. It worked out that two cycling events fell on the Friday and Saturday and I arranged for the Sunday. Opps. Lots of pedalling! I was a bit tired towards the end of it, but each event is all about enabling and encouraging people to cycle so it […]
The Sunday before last was the fourth Kidical Mass Nottingham ride. At the beginning of this year, the ride was only a concept in my mind but through planning, organisation and promotion, I rolled it out and brought together such a successful and growing group ride. This 4th ride was slightly different as the we […]
