For my wife’s birthday this year I took her to bath because she has wanted to visit for years We had such a wonderful time meandering around we just kept smiling. 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 …
I want to be a pilot!!! Eurofighter Typhoon
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.

Santa and Hatton country park Christmas fayre
This was a really fun way to a lazy 8,000 steps. I basically sat down all day either in the car or in the restaurant while he was in the soft play but I ended up with over 8000 steps, plenty of calories burnt and 42 floors climbed. The true object of all human life is play. G. K. Chesterton …

Not in an obvious way because plenty of people in the UK wouldn’t know where it is …
Fit for days out: Our day at the Olympics part two
After all this we had to watch the diving and then get home. Here is the list of what we had to do: Bloody knackered, I’m 70 kgs (About 12 stone). I couldn’t help but wonder how would that feel for someone heavier like 100 kgs. We loved every minute of it and would happily do it again but it …
