Running Up Moel Eilio – A Mini Adventure

24 August 202124 August 2021 Dave

On my very first day working for my new employer in Llanberis I was told that the run up Moel Eilio was a great fell running route. I’m not a fell runner but I enjoy a good trail, and more importantly, a good challenge. I’ve finally done it. Moel Eilio is a mountain in the […]

Our Return to Bolton Abbey

8 August 20197 August 2019 Dave

Bolton Abbey, on the River Wharfe in Yorkshire Dales, is a tourist magnet and rightly so. It is a stunningly beautiful place with an awful lot to see and do if you, like us, enjoy the great outdoors. This past weekend we visited for the first time in rather a long time. Disclaimer: We were […]

Billy Shakes: Wonderboy! (Review) | The Yorkshire Dad of 4

Billy Shakes: Wonderboy! (Review)

31 July 201931 July 2019 Dave

Have you ever tried reading Shakespeare? Honestly, have you? Well, I have and I find it tedious! Plays are meant to be performed in my opinion, not read. Getting kids to read Shakespeare is even harder, but inspiring them to be interested in his work is easy – take them to see Billy Shakes: Wonderboy! […]

The Tempest at Shakespeare’s Rose Theatre, York (Review)

29 July 201930 July 2019 Dave

William Shakespeare, arguably the most famous playwright there ever was. Surely everybody has heard of him and is aware of at least one piece of his work? After all, studying a Shakespeare play is pretty much mandatory for GCSE English literature in the UK. But I confess, I am not really a fan – or […]

The Best Things In Life Are Free

25 July 201925 July 2019 Dave

The old saying that “the best things in life are free” is true. Honestly, it is. I’m not talking about things you are given or #gifted, I’m talking about the things you can do that don’t cost you any money. Last night was one of those times – a simple couple of hours spent in […]

Go Ape Tree Top Adventure Dalby Forest North Yorkshire

Go Ape – Monkeying Around at Dalby Forest

30 August 201831 August 2018 Dave

As we live just down the road from Dalby Forest we are frequent visitors there. On every visit, I stop and watch the folk whizzing down the zip lines of Go Ape. Although I’ve not got a brilliant head for heights I’ve often wanted to try their treetop adventures with the children. We visited during […]

Lightwater Valley – Ultimate Fun at the Theme Park

11 August 201814 August 2018 Dave

Lightwater Valley theme park is near Ripon in North Yorkshire. It’s a theme park I haven’t visited since I was a young teenager myself so I was looking forward to taking the family for a day out there. This is another visit in our summer of microadventures and here’s how it went. We’d not told […]

York Chocolate Story

7 August 201810 August 2018 Dave

York Chocolate Story is an experience we’ve wanted to do for a while. Every time we’re in York we walk past and say something like “we’ll do that next time”. Except we have never done it. Well, we were given the opportunity to visit this past weekend and found it a brilliant family experience. Here’s […]

Rock Up & Climb Hull

6 August 20187 August 2018 Dave

This past weekend we visited Rock Up in Hull to try out their climbing walls as part of our summer of #microadventures. Read on to find out about our day out what we thought of the place. Why Rock Up indoor rock climbing? When you have four daughters ranging from 8 years old to 14 […]

A Visit to the National Coal Mining Museum for England

30 July 20187 August 2018 Dave

The last time I remember visiting the national coal mining museum for England I was about twelve years old and it was on a school trip. I remember this trip in particular because there had been a miscalculation and there weren’t enough seats on the bus for everyone. I drew the short straw and had […]
