The whole world was very ominous this morning as a thick, cold frost rolled in. Nic and I went to the gym where I remembered very quickly how rubbish the gym is… But I did manage a 29 minute 5k, even if I did have to watch The Simpsons on my phone to stop meContinue reading “22/01/23 – Foggy morning!”

08/01/23 – Six muddy miles
This is a really accurate photo to sum up today. Nic and I went on a really really lovely but muddy six mile walk around Woldingham Circular. It was a lush day out just nattering away the whole time, and we were exceptionally lucky with the weather. It rained a bit but not too bad,Continue reading “08/01/23 – Six muddy miles”
03/01/23 – Back to work run
Well, today was a bit of a slog. I think I’ve been having too nice of a time these last couple of weeks off work, which made today exceptionally hard. I really enjoy my job, but boy did I want to be anywhere else but at work today… I did manage to fit in aContinue reading “03/01/23 – Back to work run”
02/01/23 – Wimbledon Walk
We went on a lovely walk with our friend Andy today. It felt so wonderful getting outside with the blue skies and shining sun. A brisk but beautiful day for a 7km walk with excellent company. This year I’m hoping to do a lot more outdoor activities whilst catching up with friends. Nothing beats aContinue reading “02/01/23 – Wimbledon Walk”
17/12/22 – Goodbye snow
London is finally warming up a bit which means we’re saying goodbye to the snow at last! We took a walk to Crystal Palace and saw it all melting away. We didn’t even have to defrost the car when we went out later in the day! I’ve had a really nice day today with someContinue reading “17/12/22 – Goodbye snow”
16/12/22 – It’s still so cold!
Look at this poor frosty car… It just looks so cold. I’m actually quite excited for the temperature to leave negative figures soon. It should be tomorrow that this happens which is good as it’s not making us want to leave the house much right now… Just look how cold it looks!
13/12/22 – Day three of snow
It’s still in minus temperatures right now so the snow has stuck around for another day. It’s gone a bit more icy now but it’s still looking wonderful. Today we got a new mattress delivered and it made me realise how grateful I was that my job wasn’t delivering mattresses in the snow… What aContinue reading “13/12/22 – Day three of snow”
12/12/22 – The snow has arrived!
Last night it properly snowed after I got in from my run. And this morning we woke up to a glorious winter wonderland outside. It’s a true white blanket that has made the whole world look lovely and clean. We went for a longer walk at lunchtime all wrapped up. I loved every second ofContinue reading “12/12/22 – The snow has arrived!”
10/12/22 – The frost has arrived…
It’s oh so chilly in London right now… It’s already hiding a multitude of sins in our garden and that’s before any snow has even fallen! I’m a sucker for blue sky and cold air days. That weather is a surefire way to get me smiling, no matter how cold it is!
04/12/22 – Forest walks
We had a lush day out today catching up with family friends. We went for a roast in a country pub then set out for a walk over the hills and through the forest. Here’s Nic and Almuth making tracks ahead of the rest of us!
