La Berade, France
During a week-long cycling trip in France, where we ticked off some very famous climbs in the french alps, like the Lacets de Montvernier, Alp D’Huez & more. On what was penned as a rest-day, aside from the 40 mile, 3-thousand feet of climbing, it was suggested that we tackle a road which seemed on […]

Curiosity lit the cat
Back when I lived in Brindle my rain-day photography subjects were the cats. They’re disobedient but very photogenic. This particular rainy evening, Tilly was messing around with my desk lamp, which after a quickly shutting off the main light, made for a dramatic picture.

Soaking exhaustion
In short: Here’s a soaking wet dog. The longer version: Back in 2017, Brindle Brass Band qualified for the Brass Band National Championships in Cheltenham. This was a huge feat for the band, and the first time I’d experienced it in my then 10 years with them. National championships aren’t cheap though. 3 days in […]
