    A Photo an Hour – 23rd June 2017

    On the 23rd June 2016 I set myself a challenge to take a photo an hour. I had the idea it would be nice to document the same day every year with a photo an hour and see how things change over time. Last year the 23rd June was a Thursday. It was also EU…

    This Week I…..

    Morning! How are you all today? This week has been quite busy, but I wouldn’t say hugely interesting. I don’t have any fascinating tales to regale you with like that time I found a pie on the street and dropped a bottle of beer. We did find a toaster on the street. I tried to…

    Pimp Your Cocktail – Glassware and Bar Accessories for Glamorous Cocktails

    There’s no point having Cocktails without all the stuff that goes with it. I am mildly obsessed with cocktail paraphernalia and barware.
