day out in the capital …

No Comments
| Family, General

| Family, Football, General

Weekend saw another trip to Wembley, a place where we have been regular visitors since Manchester City hit the financial jackpot a few years back. A couple of FA Cup Semi Finals, a couple of FA Cup Finals, a couple of League Cup finals and a few Charity Shield games have provided us with an […]

| Family, General

OK, so it’s not a bike related post but last week Pat and I had Daniel and Emma with us for the best part of the day. We had bought them a tent for the garden, although what we thought was a tent was actually to become a church (or so Daniel and Emma told […]

| General, On the road, Product/service reviews
