  We went to watch Morri play football for the third time – 3 games, 3 wins and this time they won the cup too!

5 minute drive from Chideock brings us to Lyme Regis, a gorgeous town on the coast where Mary Anning found some of the first dinosaur bones! Valerie recommended reading ‘Remarkable Creatures’ before going, which was an excellent suggestion as it’s all about those discoveries and the impact that it had on society. Pretty sweet coastline, […]

Today is was farewell to the Shoe Inn, in the car and off to explore… The Dorset countryside, as seen from Corfe castle. The adorable small village that surrounds said castle. This area is the inspiration for Enid Blyton’s Famous five tales, she is also well known for creating old mate ‘Noddy’. Smaill and I […]

Easter weekend was an exploration of Dorset, starting in the New Forest where animals such as the horses above roam freely about. Interesting concept known as ‘commoning’. Slower speed limits as they roam about the roads too. Going to the wildlife park was definitely a highlight, with the otters above going crazy as their feeding time […]

  The somewhat agressive title of this post refers to the NZ band ‘Die!Die!Die!’ who we saw play at the Hoxton Sqaure Bar and Kitchen. So excellent to hear their familiar, energetic and raucous sounds, and have some catch up bevvies with Ryan above.

  Braved the cold and the sodden fields to watch Morri’s semi final for the Southern Amateur League Cup! Cam, Wakefield and Simba braving it well above. Morri’s team is in the red ‘Poly’ – and they won! Second time as spectators, second win – think there’s a theme.  

  I helped cook this Monday night as a fundraiser with the Brixton People’s Kitchen. We cooked a fine feast (if I do say so myself) with roast tomato soup and cucumber chilli bruschetta for starters, borlotti beans with roast vege and carrot and rice balls in a pepper sauce for the mains then banana […]
