  • Water of Leith - February

    It’s perhaps a wee bit early, but I have noticed some signs of Spring on my recent walks around the city. However, I am probably tempting fate. I remember at the end of February and the beginning of March we had very heavy snow falls and freezing Read more

  • Proud of the Union?

    ...the Independence lifeboat duck floating safely away and the remnants of the union with its pomp and flag slowly sinking. Read more

  • Guitar Getaway

    Recently I flew home from Portugal after another fantastic Guitar Retreat. This was my tenth Guitar Retreat since my first back in 2013 and the second time I had travelled to Alvor in the Algarve for a bit of winter sunshine and guitar playing. Whilst… Read more

  • No Resolutions

    Well, that’s seven days into the New Year, Christmas Tree and decorations taken down and put away for another year… Read more

  • LNER

    Last year, it seems odd saying this despite it only being a few weeks ago, I travelled… Read more

  • New Year Walk

    I had a fairly quiet Christmas and New Year and didn’t overindulge too much but I didn’t really do that much exercise either. I did wander along the canal path to see my sister on New Year’s Day but that’s a fairly short walk. The forecast for… Read more

  • Trigger Finger

    I keep pretty good health and count my visits to the doctor’s surgery in years rather than months or weeks, but a month ago I made an appointment and trotted off to Springfield House Practice. When I visited Ballycastle in August on an annual sailing… Read more

  • Christmas Eve 2018

    Yesterday I spent a very enjoyable Christmas with friends. We exchanged small gifts, played music together, enjoyed delicious food and drink and some great conversation. It was all very low-key and for some reason it reminded me Read more

  • Glewstone Court - Guitar Retreat

    I’ve already been on a couple of Guitar Retreats this year one in Portugal away back in January and the second in June to the Dordogne. I was keen to go on this weekend as much to visit my good friend and tutor Paul Nicholas as to attend the Retreat… Read more

  • Winchester - November 2018

    November was going to be a busy month for me with spending the first weekend in Cardiff, a trip to Winchester and a Guitar Retreat in Ross-on-Wye at the end of the month. Last year I became the Editor/Coordinator for Moody Owners Association’s… Read more

  • Cardiff 2018

    For many years some of us from Boroughmuir Rugby Club made the biannual trip to Wales to watch the Six Nations Rugby match in Cardiff. We stayed in a number of places over the years including Newport, Cardiff and latterly Cowbridge. Numbers shrunk over… Read more

  • End of Season Sail 2018 - Part 1

    Alan and I took the train on Wednesday morning from Edinburgh and arrived in Largs at lunch time. I had spent the previous fortnight preparing ‘Jess’, for our annual trip. With passage plans made, routes plotted, diesel and water tanks full, dinghy Read more

  • July Sailing 2018

    The weather during July and August this year was absolutely glorious if not always ideal sailing conditions. I had some great weekends with friends in Portavadie, Otterferry, Tarbert and Lochranza and some fine, gentle, downwind sailing. Read more

  • France, June 2018 - The Journey Home

    I had booked a ferry from Dunkirk for my return journey and on the way I planned to stop off at The Duhallow ADS Cemetery to visit the grave of my Great Uncle Robert… Read more

  • France, June 2018 - Rouen

    I had booked an Ibis Budget Hotel in Rouen for my final stop in France and arrived in late afternoon on what must have been one of the hottest days so far. I always have a look at Google Street View before I set off just so that I have a rough idea of… Read more

  • France, June 2018 - Tours

    Quelle différence!!! After the calm of the Dordogne, Tours is a vibrant bustling city. My accommodation is fine but definitely in the grittier part of town. I arrived early in the evening after having driven from Sarlat and stopping off at Chateau… Read more

  • France, June 2018 - Sarlat

    At last year’s Guitar Retreat in France I remembered just how much I like France in general and the Dordogne Region in particular. I thought that I might spend time after the Retreat doing a wee road trip around the region. Read more

  • France, June 2018 - The Guitar Retreat

    One of my all-time favourite Guitar Retreats was to La Perdrix last year. La Perdrix is a private property on the edge of the village of St Martin de Riberac in the beautiful Dordogne area of south west France… Read more

  • France, June 2018 - Getting There.

    “France may one day exist no more, but the Dordogne will live on just as dreams live on and nourish the souls of men.” In June of last year I flew to Bergerac to enjoy a week of guitar playing and tuition at La Perdrix in the small town of St. Martin… Read more
