It’s been that time of the year here in Hull. The largest traveling fair in Europe comes to town for a week of chaos. The noise, lights and the aroma of burgers, burnt onions, hot dogs and chips fills the air. For some reason coconut’s are always on every stall. Millions of them. Brown, hairy […]

That’s 6 hrs 6 mins if you’re in a Ferrari. Took nearly 9 hours but worth every mile. What a beautiful place…. And of course, the happy couple!

Yesterday we took a little trip to Hornsea. Its a typical seaside town like many here in the UK. I’m very lucky where I live. Half an hours drive and it’s the east coast. The North Sea is a bit nippy even in summer but the sandy beach is beautiful. We did get dive bombed […]
