Good times

I'm a very lucky person to have really good friends all over the country. I recently had a chance to visit some of them and take advantage of their fantastic hospitality. Firstly, I indulged myself whilst visiting Howard and his family at their wonderful home in north Devon. Their swimming pool is fantastic.


Next, I joined Roland, Simon and Giles on a trip to Llangorse in mid Wales for some watersports fun using Roland's ski-boat and toys. I've done this trip with them several times over the past few years but the conditions on this trip were the best so far. The photographer was Simon and he managed to cut off my upper body as I took off. It was the biggest jump of the day and if it wasn't for my distinguishable fat arse, you wouldn't know it was me. Nice one Si.....

Fish Food

Digging for worms on the bed of the river Torridge between Instow and Bideford. It's a solitary pursuit.

Midsummer

Sometimes the flow has to be ridden.
As guilt resurfaces like bubbles from a bottle.
I escape to a World of simple pleasures.
To a green land that time has forgotten.
