Time’s meat slicer is beginning to shave away at the days as the end of the year sneaks in on the quiet. I fancied a trip out, not too long, before the days turn into the annual “blink and you’ll miss them” short bursts of sunlight fighting for attention between great walls of murk. To that end I picked Bangor, the university town in North Wales as my destination, it’s […]
Hello again. I’m heading to Chorley for the Chorley Live music event, the day has been warm and bright so I decided to take a roundabout bus route to get there.

It was to the coast for me last weekend, to Morecambe for the Vintage By The Sea festival.
It’s an event I only dropped onto last year though it has been running for a while. It’s an excuse to raid the dressing up box and polish, or get your chauffeur , to polish the drop head Bentley or elegant Alvis and pootle along to the seaside.

My plan was to take in as much of the city as I […]
Hello from Edinburgh, the Festival is in progress and I am here for the day. Arriving about half an hour ago the first order of the day was of course coffee and cake. Today’s venue is the Red Cockerel on Princes Street and the choice is a latte and an almond croissant. The plan I’m thinking of is to head up Lothian Road and back onto the Royal Mile through […]
