This was a quieter day but still so much fun because we started by getting a stunning aerial view of Weymouth from the Sealife Tower. That really gave us a perspective of the town and beautiful start to the day. Then we just found a great spot on the beach, chilled out and played. The fun came in a very simple …
I didn’t realise how special this day would be until we met the swans. I’m used to seeing them as one or two togethers, occasionally a small family group but never in large flocks and never up really close. At Abbotsbury you get a truly unique experience seeing Swans up close and personal just wandering around in an environment where …
Day 3 was another epic day of fun. More relaxed than the day before but still full of laughs and memories. I didn’t set out with the intention of hitting any fitness goals but through simply play and holiday spirit I achieved them easily without even trying.
Day 2 of our Weymouth holiday started with a trip to the famous Durdle Door and ended with a walk to portland along the road next to chesil beach.

I want my little one to move regularly because it’s good for him. Right now it looks like he’s just watching tv. He is but he’s also actively balancing on my knee while he uses me as his gym. Balancing is a subtle but powerful form of movement. It develops coordination which prevents falls among other things. At the …
Yesterday we spent our first family day gaming because our little one got his first console game and it was fantastic. We couldn’t believe how quickly he picks it all up and boy did we have fun. As a health coach I should be all about moving all the time and eating veggies every second right. Well… That’s kinda …
This is a snapshot of the fun we had today. Lounging around enjoying each other’s company. We swam in the morning I cooked in the afternoon and we watched movies after. Just now the little one lined up his new dinosaurs from the good dinosaur. For me it was a chance to record some memories which of course means …
Carrying on from yesterday’s theme I found these wonderful memories with my son and the treasure we found when out Christmas shopping. The steps and fitness stats aren’t epic but remember this was just an average Sunday doing chores and the Fitbit can only show part of the health story. Much gets missed and can’t be recorded yet. A big …
The photos here are about the great deals and finds you can get by stepping outside and exploring. The summer for me was all about boot sales because many are I. The country in the middle of a field. So I get to shop in the English country side. This time of year it’s more about Christmas fayres and the …

It’s such a beautiful city that if you ever get the chance to visit you should. You can see from the stats that this much fun also got us …
Memories This video and the memories that go with it will stay with me forever. I still remember fondly a similar experience years ago in a summer job as a drivers mate we passed an RAF base while several jets were preparing to take off about 100 meters away. We pulled over and watched each get into position, fire up …

You forget the challenges this put you through because you are simply enjoying yourself. It’s just a lovely way to get moving. …
