After almost a year of living here, I finally built the studio in my back garden last summer. I'd ordered the log cabin kit back in February of last year, intending to get it built by March. But one thing...2017-01-28T13:25:42+00:00
Until I was 6 I lived in Aldershot, the Home of the British Army. We lived in a ground floor flat on a huge estate of army flats. I played in a brutalist playground of concrete tunnels and slides, with...2017-01-25T23:17:25+00:00
This is where I was this morning, right down there, in the sea trying to catch those waves.... Today though was one of those sessions that was challenging and humbling for me. I had a fantastic surf on Sunday and...2017-01-24T22:10:54+00:00

We're slowly working out a new routine in this new life of ours. There are moments when it's a fairly steep learning curve, with 3 generations in a home that's not quite big enough yet, but in general and on...2015-11-03T10:28:37+00:00
After school yesterday Lily and I spent a very happy hour or two at the beach, drawing and skimming stones while watching the sun slowly slip behind the horizon. I'm not sure how many more chances we'll get at the...
