Tattoo December 2014
A Birthday present from work. Un finished business, work in progress, fill the space with something good. It could mean a lot of things but to me it's just another piece of art

Curling - Fenton's Rink - Tonbridge - 11/01/2015
What a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon. Friends, family, work colleagues, this is an activity you could do with them all. It's definitely harder then it looks!

Madeira
Madeira, Funchal, 04/09/2014 to 08/09/2014
Not a bad 3 and a half hour flight time spent as always in the middle of the plane sitting on a wing with no view and a screaming baby for company.
We jumped on the Areobus that took us directly into the city, what a view from the top as you approach too! Weather hits you pretty bad when walking into the day light sun, just what i needed!
As for the hotel, what a gorgeous place to call home for four nights. Very well maintained, some stunning views wherever you walked, friendly staff and all the amenities you could ask for.
They are very serious about looking after the environment here, separate bins for different waste, do we really need to wash your towel every day? although the showers are not limited to how much water a guest can use!
1st time using the self passport scanner, defiantly still a human role over a computer, too many idiots going through and not reading the signs properly.
There was plenty to do, I particularly liked the cable car ride to the top of the city, monte. With a stunning yet short walk around a corner to jump on a wooden toboggan, where you are dragged down the hills for 2km by two men dresses in white with funny hats. The CR7 museum was also really good, tonnes of medals, photographs and hat trick footballs, all confirming who the best player in the world is, Cristiano Ronaldo. Also on offer are day trips around the island, wine tasting sessions and loads of boat trips on offer with Funchal being a harbour town to.
Food was fantastic, although nothing regional, national to scream about. Although there national cake and wine where exceptionally good. Night life, there wasn't any, this is a place for the older at heart to come and unwind and chill away from the youths of today.
Fantastic time away, some photos below for you all.

Sandwich
Sandwich, Kent, UK 7/08/2014
What a lovely place, friendly people, very historic, lots to see not a lot to do, but somewhere you should at least stay the night.
Enjoy the pics, and yes the weather was awful for the time of year we stayed!

The Shard
The Shard, visited 29/08/2014
Well worth the visit, shame about the extravagant cost! Its just something you have to go and see.
Enjoy what I thought were the best bits, including the toilet and men hard at work cleaning all those window panes! what a painful job.

Tattoo 2014
Not the tattoo I had originally planned, that one is currently with an artist... This is a crucifix with a sword running down and two wings either side at the top. To me this represents power, honour and pride. I wasn't too sure as it was being done, scary thought!, but after a couple of days I think it's a great little addition.

Once upon a time
Once upon a time in Budapest... Whilst sailing along the river Danube on board one of the cities river cruises. What a lovely little reminder to dream and to think what to do next. Photographed while on holiday, photoshopped with black and white effect, changing text to black and copping image.
