A 15 minute Breather Break

Hello I'm in recovery presently from lugging a 40 stone rucsac up Bow Fell in the Lake District over the weekend and then nearly being blown off the mountain top during the 100mph gusts. That story can wait.....

In the meantime heres a few snaps I took yesterday afternoon of the office and when I went out for a 15 minute breather break in Embankment Gardens. Enjoy ! (oh and apologies for the quality, I had only a cameraphone handy)

And couldnt you pack a couple of plastic bags and sarnies to go up Bow fell :o) Would have been lighter

That place looks really nice (Bow Fell). i still havent made the journey down to the lakes yet.

Looks like i will have to take a few days off work and bring the car and tent down there this year.

In this blog is my memory. Part ecstasy, part torture. To explore, and to arrive at the start — and know the place for the first time. Here begins a new enlightenment " You are the music while the music lasts " T. S. Eliot

The Arctic ....ashes to ashes

Travel log - Last month i went on an Arctic Expedition. An Expedition around the Archipeligo island of Svalbard. (Spitsbergen to me and you) http://www.ocnwide.com/ocn.htm Why go there ? i was asked many times over. Many thought i was a lunatic and very very few thought it was fantastic. In fact those few (strangers) thought i had made their day by mentioning this fact. Were they wanting shot of me?? they had only just met me... hmmm i wonder now.... The truth of it was i wanted to find inner peace, a calmness, a happiness from within. I wanted to go there and feel one with the landscape. I would go alone. so did i find it ? did i find my Utopia ? The answer - NO! and i have only myself to blame for this - for I did far too much talking, far too much laughing, far too much merry making.... But its gotta be said .. it was one of the most enjoyable times of mylife. The landscape was absolutely jaw dropping. The majestic glaciers were unbelievable. So unashamedly and unbelievably BEAUTIF...
