I take hundreds of photos every month, and most of them don’t get shared with anyone, let alone online. And yet the moments in time that those photos capture are just as important a part of our story as the other images that I do choose to share. I originally created this blog as a…
We usually head south to our happy place in Cornwall for our family holidays. At the start of June we headed north instead, on a week-long mini Scottish road trip of two halves: first to explore the beautiful city of Edinburgh for four days; then on to Loch Lomond for the final three days. It…

In April 2021 we made our annual Easter holiday trip to Bude in North Cornwall. We were originally supposed to be staying for the full two weeks, spending the first week at our ‘home from home’ The Beach Haven and the second week at The Old Bakery in Bude, which at the time of our…
During the second half of the Easter holidays, as soon as self catering accommodation re-opened post lockdown #3, we made our way to Cornwall to spend some time in our happy place during our favourite season: Spring in Bude. This post covers what we got up to during the last few days of our trip…
