Double the Les Plus Beaux Villages visitations today, which might have been a wee bit ambitious. Particularly combined with lunch in between. Oops. It’s very hard to resist a traditional French lunch when the rest […]

2018 Day 30 – Gerberoy
Day 30. Where did that time go, pray tell? Surely we landed mere moments ago. The morning sees us driving south, through large scale farm land. This is the serious business end of farming: endless […]
2018 Day 29 – Ypres
We’re better organised today. Bikes out, Google maps on, we find a bike path along the river that takes us all the way into Ypres. Interestingly, Ypres is its French name: the town’s official name […]
2018 Day 28 – Finally, in Europe
And so after a delayed start, we find ourselves at last driving to Dover, Calais bound on the noon ferry. I love the logistics that accompany these crossings. I’m sure that there’s a pertinicky Virgo […]
2018 Day 27 – Canterbury
It’s lovely to wake to a lazy second day in Canterbury. Having seen the Cathedral yesterday, we’re free to explore at leisure. A more detailed walk through town is in order. I had to be […]
2018 Day 26 – Canterbury
We arrive in Canterbury by mid afternoon. Northern inclement climes have been replaced with a perfect day – mid 20s with blue skies. Canterbury city council has been extraordinarily progressive and converted a large section […]
2018 Day 25 – Europe, here we come
In the end, the weather decided for us. We were Scotland bound and had driven as far up as Yorkshire, within twitching distance of Peter Rabbit and the Lakes District, both firm favourites. Scotland has […]
2018 Day 24 – Joy and Resolution
The last 24 hours has been rather wonderful. Blissed out at meeting the gorgeous Miss Felix, the Huddersfield Station cat, I shared my blog post about it with her* in a private message, thinking she […]
2018 Day 23 – The Bronte Sisters
It seems that our travels have randomly developed a literary bent. Works for me! The world of books is most definitely one of my happy places. I spent most of my childhood walking around with […]
2018 Day 22 – Felix, the Huddersfield Cat
It’s not every day you get to meet a celebrity. And it’s certainly not every day you get to meet a cat with a job. And one that’s been promoted, to boot. Those of you […]
