On the Road Again
The beginning of the Irish chronicle. Our epic journey started in Plymouth with an easy two hour drive to Bristol airport one sunny Saturday afternoon. An easy drive hasn’t been guaranteed the last couple of months due to the Curse of the Acoustic Foam! No, it’s not a campy B-movie, but instead an attempt by…

Gardening and a (It’ll be) Grand Tour

Fried Chicken and Brain Frying Bikes
Bikes and fried chicken. The curse of the semi-early adopter. VanMoof X3 (Thrice the name, thrice the pain…) If you’ve followed my writing over the last year, you may well remember my VanMoof-related strife. My wife’s VanMoof X3 stopped working reliably thanks to a break within the motor cable, and the only way of fixing…
