16th April 2025 (Guildford) Very very very last minute tickets meant with less than 2 days notice we abandoned all four kids and went off to see Harry Hill. Vikki wasn’t too enthused but Steve was really looking forward to it. Absolutely! Here’s a fun and cheeky write-up of your Read more
Friday 7th – Sunday 9th March 2025 Day 1 This time we’re ferry-bound for the Isle of Wight – but not before Steve gets creative with directions and ignores the maps. Twice. Not lost exactly… just taking the “scenic almost-wrong-turn route” to the ferry port. Once we finally got there Read more
Wednesday 5th March 2025 What started as a simple evening out took a classic detour (literally). We left in glorious blue skies and somehow arrived in Bournemouth shrouded in thick, horror-movie fog — classic UK plot twist. After a scenic tour of every dead-end near the BIC (can happen if Read more
Saturday 14th December 2024 Nice weather and no plans made for a great chance to head to the coast. Decided to go somewhere new and ended up heading to Old Harry Rocks in Dorset. A fairly uneventful, if not slow, drive and we parked up (unexpected free National Trust parking) Read more

Sunday 12th July 2024 A breezy ferry ride whisked us over for a 7km walk full of sea views, woodland trails, and wildlife spotting (though the red squirrels were clearly off duty). We discovered the world’s comfiest tree seat for a well-earned rest before heading to the café for cake, Read more
Sunday 14th July 2025 Alarms rudely dragged us out of bed at 6:15am. Quick coffee and we were off to Goodwood. All was going smoothly until one genius decided to drive straight over a barrier. Yes, over. First stop? Ice cream. Because who says breakfast has to be boring. Revving Read more
