Blog Page

This is my 'occasional' blog which will be updated only when we are travelling or when I have something interesting to share. (This will be my substitute Facebook Page in effect). Note that the newest posts always appear first. To read about a whole journey or project from the start, use the archives links below. I have adopted the convention of adding  Roman Numerals to a series of posts. If posts appear out of order, just follow the numbering system. This follows the order in which they were written.

To see larger photographs from the galleries, click on the first image. You can then scroll them horizontally using the back and forth arrows either side of the image or the left and right arrow keys on your keyboard.

  • Below are links to 3 of the most recent  posts. Clicking the CAPITALISED TITLE will open the post in a new window. These have been transferred from my previous web host from sailing voyages undertaken in 2025.
  • Clicking the Archive links (month and year) will display the headers for 6 posts at a time.
  • You can navigate through the headers below by clicking Previous  or Next.
  • As I build the blog I will add category tags to aid searching.
