Zürich with a Teenager
So, we’ve reached the last of the holiday posts just in time for school to start. We finished the last post in Friedrichshafen and that’s where we’ll pick back up, aboard the boat to Romanshorn. This was a bit of … Continue reading
Friedrichshafen with a Teenager
Now, where did we get to in my last post? Somewhere approaching our holiday apartment I think. I’d chosen Friedrichshafen as a place to rest for a couple of days after the big cities (Paris and Stuttgart) and before we … Continue reading
Stuttgart with a Teenager
If you’ve read my last post, you’ll know that we had a very soggy day in Paris, followed by some nice bread and a train to Stuttgart. Well, first there was a bit of hanging around Gare de L’Est as … Continue reading

Dopamine Land – 03/08/24

Fox in a Box Escape Rooms – 16/06/24

“Christmas at Kew” – 06/01/24
Happy New Year! I realise it’s in no way Christmas any more – although Eva tells me that “Fishmas” carries on until February – but yesterday we went for one last shot of Christmas joy before settling into dreary January. … Continue reading
“Delight” – 24/11/23
As is becoming traditional in November, I’ve taken a week off to celebrate being so bad at managing my annual leave that I have to take it in November. Coincidentally, Eva had an inset day today so it seemed like … Continue reading
I Just Want to Tell You How I’m Feeling…..
Tired. But that’s not the main point of this post. In fact, there are a few things I want to tell you about but don’t worry, we’ll come back to the post title eventually. First though, let me tell you … Continue reading
