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

One bed is being slowly replaced by potatoes, and has a good crop of lettuce and radishes. A few of the beetroot and…

A Sleepless Night in Tsukiji

Perhaps I’ve waited so long to write about this particular experience because of how much I wanted to forget the time around it. Sleep deprivation does not make a me a happy person. And keeping a…

Weird and Wonderful Food, and Experiences
Weird and Wonderful Food and Drink I was complemented on my curry udon eating technique today because of the lack of curry sauce on my white coat – little did they know I spilled it on my trousers instead. Curry udon consists of udon (duh), which are thick wheat noodles, in a curry sauce with…
