THE (SPLODZ BLOGZ) CHRISTMAS TAG

TWO SHORT HIKES IN THE QUANTOCK HILLS AONB
Back at the very end of October, before we went into our last national lock down, I spent two days based in Bridgewater (I do love a Premier Inn, always reliable) for a very mini solo hiking adventure in the … Continued
WEEKLY BLOG 49 | WHY CANCELLED PLANS HURT
I honestly had no idea when I started this series of weekly blogs that they would become something of a cathartic way for me to share my thoughts and feelings on a global pandemic and our yoyoing in and out … Continued
WEEKLY BLOG 48 | ENCHANTED LIGHTS AND WINDY DAYS
