Welcome back Tim, and thanks for the encouragement, I’m looking forward to exploring more of the local pub walks across the summer weekends…

Just (re?) discovered your great blog. I’d completely forgotten my resentment when my brother, at eighteen, was allowed a motorbike whereas I, five years earlier, had been non-negotiably refused – thanks for reminding me. I’ll bring it up with him when I see him next week.
Oh, and thanks also for reminding me of some of those lovely walks.

Hi Kay, I bought the bike and the protective riding clothing with a loan dad gave me. I paid him back with interest within the year. Mum and dad gave me the ring as an 18th Birthday present. Keep the cross-Atlantic translations coming!

Wait…you got the motorcycle AND the ring? You lucky, lucky girl!
Love the photo of you on the Honda motorbike and I love the jumper too!
(Two words here that most Americans wouldn’t know…”jumper” means sweater and “rowed” means argued.
This is just to help out any other Americans who read your blog. I always like to help out my fellow countrymen or women.)
