Well I had an absolute blast at the vegan camp out festival with Katie and Ryan. The food was amazing, there was great music, thought provoking talks and a really kind bunch of 12,000 or so people. Oh and let’s not forget all the crystals and hippie stuff that was on sale. Whilst I was…

Wow, wow, wow, the Coventry canal has been absolutely beautiful, and of course the weather has been fantastic. We also saw Uncle Albert! Along the way we have also seen herons, a water vole, blackberries starting to come out and some unusual boat yards. At places the reeds in the canal made it a single…

Just a quick update to let you know that we arrived back on Daisy today. Our visit to Deby was extended somewhat by the need for medical treatment. Hopefully though things are now going in the right direction 🙏. It does however look as though we may be stranded here in Stoke for a few…
