Barmy Britain? well yes actually!
Those fabulous people from Horrible Histories have done it again! Another wonderful show, this time all about us Barmy Brits! Last night we trouped down to the Lighthouse Theatre in Poole (that’s Dorset, for those of you oop North), keen to get our annual fix of Horrible History; and weren’t disappointed either. From raging mad Boudicca who had a thing for stomping on the Romans to the very extroverted Dick Turpin who took to...
NIKE 7 inch Distance Running Shorts – Review
I wrote back in May how Mr LittleStuff spent the first half of the year literally changing his life; losing three stone and getting fit had started to show some major changes in his health. But here we are, 5 months further down the line. And how has he done. Well, how about I tell you that this week he was signed off from all diabetic medication? He has so dramatically changed his health that he has reversed his Type 2 Diabetes, and...
Saucony Virrata – review
Let me start off by saying… I am no runner. I have started the Couch to 5K programme twice – last year I stopped at week 3, fearful for my heart (it’s not good when you can feel your pulse bulging in your neck, and you may actually have wet yourself, is it?). But this year, accompanying the husband on his Road To Good Health, I have managed to stick with it all the way to week 9. But – on the cross-trainer. It...
Venice in a day – Day Five of the Great #ItalyRoadTrip
(be sure to follow us on Twitter or Instagram for regular updates on our four week adventure touring Italy in a motorhome) Up bright and early, we were at the campground reception office by 8.30 to buy our bus tickets into Venice. The bus stop is right outside the camp gates, and the bus comes every 30 minutes – it couldn’t be easier. A very helpful local stopped us getting on the wrong bus, and then assisted us with the...
Here it is – the GoPro Hero 3+ Review from our #GoProAdventures
I know, I know. The GoPro. If you have even heard of it, you know it is the camera that mad and stupid people strap to their heads when they throw themselves out of aeroplanes or glide through impossibly curly waves, yes? Well, yes. And no. It IS that thing, yes, absolutely. But.. it’s not ONLY that thing. As regular readers will know, a month or so ago we were picked along with just a handful of other bloggers to complete the...
Rock Climbing and Abseiling in Dorset for our #GoProAdventures
I think the most dreaded of our #GoProAdventures was the Rock Climbing and Abseiling in Dorset – only two of us were excited about the morning with Appetite for Adventure. The rest of us were quietly fearful! We couldn’t have hoped for better weather, though – the walk down to Dancing Ledge was utterly spectacular with sweeping blue skies meeting the sea on the horizon and barely a wisp of cloud. We all loved the walk so...
