2405.06 SHE'S FIFTY

The most important person in my life hits a milestone birthday this week and we celebrate with a special trip to our special place.

Of course, my birthday immediately proceeds hers and I celebrated it with a pint of Cwrw in the Seahorse Inn.

But this isn't about my birthday - Morticia is fifty (she's not happy about it) and unlike when she was forty she decided she didn't want a party and wanted to celebrate with our family in New Quay (Cei Newydd) West Wales, as I did three years ago.

Of course things didn't quite go to plan since Rags couldn't come with us (her baby could arrive at any moment). Instead our eldest, Harley, is able to bring her future husband 

We really wanted to make Morticia's special day extra special. All of us put in together and got her a Cricut machine, something she's wanted for such a long time.

Sometimes less is more and she wanted to celebrate with family in a place she is most happy, as I did on my fiftieth. Rags was noticeably missed.

I hope she enjoyed the day and continues to enjoy the week here in the best place on the planet.

Happy fiftieth my sweet, here's to you next chapter...

2404.27 BABIES, CARS AND HOSPITALS

Considering just how much has been going on recently you wouldn't be mistaken for thinking that I had plenty of excuses for posting a blog. Unfortunately all I've had on my plate has been a tad overwhelming. But here we are, or at least here I am.

2403.30 END OF THE X78

OK, if you don't live or visit South Yorkshire, if you're a stuck up twat that's too good to catch buses, or you live in the future from me now - you'll probably want clarity as to what the x78 is. Well it's a bus service, and one that I've used a lot. It's also one that's been around for a long time. 

2402.18 JORVIK TWENTYFOUR

Hotel was booked last year, train sorted last month, we're ready to march on York. This Northman is coming to Jorvik.

The dog knew something was going on, he wasn't happy although he's had some fun in store with my daughter.

2402.09 THE LOST CELTS

I wanted to write this down as a way of clarifying what has been swimming about in my head in a way of making sense of it all.

My beliefs are sat firmly in the Nordic camp but I've always been very Celt-curious. 

2401.24 THE NEXT GENERATION

Our lives are full of milestones, points in our lives that map out our very existance. When we meet the love of our lives, the birth of our children, the arrival of a beloved pet. Of course these are just some of the positives - this is what I want to concentrate on today...

2401.10 VIRUSES AND LOST DAYS

Since New Year I've been floored by a virus that has kept me off work and, for the most part, in bed.

2401.01 HAPPY NEW YEAR

Another year in the bag. It's time to look at my 3 targets I set for myself and to look at the year ahead. Before we look of that let's look at my Yule experience.
