Thank you for your kind words, we hope that we can create a love for the outdoors in him. So far it seems to be working! Every time he seems a little stressed out we try to put him on our backs and head out for an hour or so and he seems to love it! The canoe trip is next for him, we both love to paddle and we are hoping he will do too!

Bodhi's path did not always run smooth!

'I've done an Ironman' I said. 'I've done a 13 hour trail race' I said. 'Labour will be just like an endurance event, and I've done loads...I'll be fine' I said. I was right about only one thing. Giving birth is an endurance event. That's where the similarity to my... Continue reading

Musings of a new mummy...

During my 3 months on maternity leave, whilst out walking or jogging I have often had the chance to ponder how life has changed and how having Bodhi has reinforced and sometimes changed the things that are most important to me. Apologies for being soppy, but here are 5 of... Continue reading

The Daily Grind

For those of you who have visited my blog before, you will know that I am a fan of good coffee. I have mainly been using pre-ground beans which give a good flavour but deteriorate quickly once opened, which is not good for trips lasting more than a day. A... Continue reading

Jake Agreed! Wanted to try and get the chocolate fully melted as well as being able to all most "bake" them on the bbq. Do remember loving the crispy outside and the gooey inner core when we roasted them as kids! The Banana boat sounds good, my uncle did something similar with banna chocolate and rum! Ash

I am fortunate enough to live close to the Cuckmere river and when I can I like to get out in the canoe and enjoy the sights. The challenge with all of my trips is that my coffee addiction has to come with me. Over the years I have tried... Continue reading

From the kitchen to the oven

My first post! Always tough to decide on where to start, but seeing as it is food related, the best place I reckon is breakfast! Something I am keen to try and do is to translate regular cook books to outdoor cooking. One of my favorite cook books for this... Continue reading
