Today’s thoughts can be summed up in two words: Extremely Wet! I needed to do some extra steps this weekend to make it to my 70,000 and planned for a long walk, but hadn’t realised quite how much rain there would be. When I reached this ginormous puddle I did wonder what the heck IContinue reading “Today’s thoughts… 10 Feb 2024”

Today’s thoughts… 1 Feb 2024
A huge thank you to everyone who got in touch yesterday. I have had a relaxing evening, and time to take on the feedback and think about the way forward for my blog. I’ve decided to rename my posts to ‘Today’s thoughts…’ and then I’m not bound to do it either daily or weekly. OneContinue reading “Today’s thoughts… 1 Feb 2024”
Daily thoughts… Day 29 of 366
Managed to get some yoga done this evening as I have a busy week coming up (as always!). It took me back to a three-month trip in 2017 where I spent a week at a Zen Buddhist temple on Kyushu island, Japan. It was no longer a working temple; I actually found it on AirBnB!Continue reading “Daily thoughts… Day 29 of 366”

Last December (2023) I went to the Barbican to see Simon Reeve on his ‘To the Ends of the Earth’ tour. I’m not quite sure what I was expecting, in the second half he touched on some deeply personal topics and I think it’s probably the most honest and raw shows I have ever seenContinue reading “Daily thoughts… Day 28 of 366”

If you have been reading these posts for a while, you may remember on Day 4 I mentioned I was an Army cadet, and what a huge positive influence cadets had was on my life. By the time I was 16 I’d decided that I wanted to join the Army as an engineer and, against advice,Continue reading “Daily thoughts… Day 25 of 366”

Penning this quickly before bed, I have spent most of the evening hoovering the house and fumigating each room as last night I noticed some FLEAS on my beloved Hamish! Poor thing was scratching like mad and then I saw little crawly things on top of his head. I felt awful banishing him to theContinue reading “Daily thoughts… Day 23 of 366”

A weekend meeting up with friends, a walk along part of the Saxon Shore Way (today’s image) and catching up on TV. My top two January TV picks are: Have you watched any of these, and how did you find them?
Daily thoughts… Day 19 of 366
I’ve been reflecting on my journey this week; tiring, but I learned a lot. Sometimes we push ourselves into new environments, and sometimes we get a little push and have to decide if we are going to sink or swim. And yes, I do feel that it is a choice – it is all toContinue reading “Daily thoughts… Day 19 of 366”

It was a balmy -5 degrees on my drive this morning as I was attempting to thaw the ice on the outside AND inside of my windscreen. I had got up at the crack of dawn to get the early train but the thawing took longer than expected and I had the pleasure of sittingContinue reading “Daily thoughts… Day 18 of 366”

A busy day today as our department is preparing for a 2-day Termly Increment (TI, or for those of you familiar with Agile – PI) planning session starting tomorrow. More on that subject over the next two days I’m sure! Our Director sent out his newsletter today and what he had to say about ChatGPTContinue reading “Daily thoughts… Day 16 of 366”
