Puerto Pollensa 2016
This was to be a holiday of two halves. For the first week, we had the family with us, we were five adults plus our two-year-old grandson Leo. This is something we have always wanted to do, but only now, in retirement, can we afford to treat everyone. Week two was just myself and Kathryn; we walked and I hired a bike for three days. We jokingly said that we needed the second week to recover from the first.

Morning Walk Newtonmore
Garmin Connect. “I’m walking in the rain…….”, Del Shannon. A great song and one of the first to catch my interest in music at the age of about 12. Another was “Great Balls of Fire” by Jerry Lee Lewis but we won’t mention that one. If you don’t know the songs have a listen, they are a product of their time (like me) Continue reading Morning Walk Newtonmore
