Teachers a re amazing people. Truly, I think it’s one of the most important jobs a person can undertake. Often thankless but also so rewarding. I am grateful that our girls have had some fantastic teachers over the years, and still do to this day. However, when it comes to buying them Christmas present – […]

Part Time Bloggers – Are They A Problem
Once upon a time, I was a part-time photographer whilst I also had a full-time career in IT. It was all above board and I was registered with HMRC and paid my taxes. But, in the wedding photography industry, there was some hostility. This hostility was towards us, part-timers. Sometimes it was clearly because full-time photographers […]
The Perenial Aftershave
Last night was the primary school Christmas fayre. You know what they’re like; tombola, raffle, cakes, book stall, sweets, handmade decorations. Pretty standard stuff really. Verity had a go on the tombola. Our girls tend to do well on them and I did have my eye on a hotel of Jagameister at the back. Sadly, […]

Great Shows To Watch This Autumn
Now that we are well and truly into autumn, you will have certainly noticed that the nights are darker and the weather outside is a whole lot colder than what it has been. You probably won’t want to spend too much time outside anymore, so what better way to spend your evenings than by snuggling […]
My Sunday Photo: The Pier at Saltburn-by-the-Sea
Last Sunday, after frantically posting last weeks My Sunday Photo, we took a trip up to Saltburn-by-the-Sea. Even though I wrote a blog about the day that you can read here, and I shared this photo of the pier within that blog, I wanted to make a post especially about it. I’ve always admired dramatic and […]
My Sunday Photo: Fields of Gold
Fields of Gold – My Sunday Photo for 5th August 2018 Living in the countryside for the last four years has turned us into the farming cycle. Without even seeing a combine harvester I knew that the harvest was starting this July. This field, looking south from the edge of the North York Moors, is one I […]
