We're Going on a Bear HuntThe weather has improved and we walked to a local pub for some lunch. Half a bottle of wine made the off-track return home a little more difficult but we got there. Tom had an OS map and he was our navigator across the local footpaths. At times it felt like we were Going om a Bear Hunt.

A year in pictures – Day 175

Pink Ladies Sunset WalkThis evening I agreed to take part in a charity walk for the Pink Ladies.

It was a sunset walk starting at 6pm and walking around the coast, ending up in town where there was an Abba tribute band playing. It was a good walk – 10.5 miles – and by the time I got to town my hips were killing me. I managed the last couple of miles with a can of gin and tonic in my hand.

A fab evening with our lovely childminder Jane and some of her friends for company. Thanks everyone.

A year in pictures – Day 20

Friday

Another Friday off work and another lovely walk around the coast with my sister, Ralph the dog and The Little Miss.

It was such a beautiful day but the air was chilly. I do think though that it would be possible for this to be the middle of summer because it is so sunny!

A year in pictures – Day 2

Winter walking

Another walk today, this time without children but with my sister and the mental dog.

It was lovely to get out for an hour or so and have the chance to catch up properly and walk off some of the cake and booze.

This evening we have eaten as much of the unhealthy food in the house as possible The rest of it will be going in the bin. Tomorrow the diet restarts!

2016 Project366 (Day 364)

December walking

Such a beautiful day today!

Went out for a walk with my sister, her friend and all the children and we wandered around the headland at Choet, around the tip and back to the beach for a quick cuppa looking at the sea.

It was seriously mild today and felt like it could be Spring. Gorgeous.

Puddles!It has been a really gloomy and wet day today.

After a long sleep at lunchtime The Little Mister requested ‘puddles’ so we went for a (very short!) walk in the rain.

Not the greatest photo but very reflective of our day!

Moody sky

I forgot to put this up yesterday. So slack!

It is a rather moody photo of a late afternoon walk with my sister and cousin and kids and dogs.

The Little Mister was rather delighted with the amount of ‘PUDDLES!’ he found on the way!

2014 Project365 (Day 2)

The tipThe weather has been awful for the last few days but today was bright, if a bit blustery.

The Little Mister and I went out for a walk with my sister, her friend and all the kids. We went for a walk and I assumed that meant going to one of our lovely local beaches or headland, but no, we went to the local tip so that the boys could look at the diggers. It smelt foul but the kids thought it was the next thing ever, especially as they were all dressed in waterproof suits with their wellies and could splash through the puddles.

I have to admit that it was a nice afternoon out, regardless of the stench, as the walk around the headland path to the tip is really lovely.

2013 Project365 (Day 173)

Pink Ladies Sunset Walk22 June 2013 – Tonight Mum and I did the Pink Ladies Sunset Walk. 10.5 miles in the drizzle and strong wind with not a decent sunset in site! The views are gorgeous though as it is all around the North coast of Guernsey. Beautiful.

It’s all for a good cause though and we completed it in 3 hours and 13 minutes. My hips are sore and I have a couple of blisters on the bottom of my feet but I really enjoyed it.

2013 Project365 (Day 126)

World Aid WalkToday was the World Aid Walk, a 20km walk raising money for 6 different charities., one of which is my sister’s charity, Hope For A Child.

Last year I did the walk along with Mum, my sister and my aunt. I didn’t do the whole walk this year by The Little Mister and I joined my Mum for the last 5km. It was an absolutely gorgeous sunny day – perfect for a walk.

My Dad and my sister are on the walk organsing committee and between them they gave spent much of the day driving about, delivering water and setting up and taking down checkpoints.

My sister is doing her ‘thin’ face and I told her I had a ‘nice photo’. This is it Lou, the other one was rubbish!!
