Event Photos

These pages are to record 'events' that is to say things that I bother taking photos of or assembling photos of. There's perhaps a better word than 'events' but I couldn't think of one.

Click on any of the photos to go into that event and see the individual moments &photos that comprise it.

If you're a friend then you can click on the 'Sign In' button above. You can register using Dropbox, Google, Facebook or your email address. Once signed up and then signed in you can comment on any of the photos, just by clicking on the little pencil image that will appear next to any of the 'event' photos, but only after you've logged in.

France, Spain, France 2026

France, Spain, France 2026

(4/30/2026)

A getaway to try to recover some sanity after so much family trauma was seriously needed, so, a little like last year, we drove through France to Spain and back again.  The difference was this was really a trip for Pippa, so we didn't visit any friends, we really need time alone.  So, we drove 3702 miles, and visited all new places, not one we'd been to before, ah, except a quick trip to Girona to do a bit of shopping

Spain & France and a Dog

Spain & France and a Dog

(4/2/2025)

We hadn't been on holiday, for all sorts of reasons, for about 10 years, nor had we been able to even go on our honeymoon, which had been due 2 years ago!

So, we felt we deserved a good break. A good break we felt was taking about 6 weeks away, and since we couldn't imagine being on holiday without Sam, our dog, we bought a second-hand estate car and set off.

We had a vague plan to go down the middle of France, cross over into Spain. Go down the coast of Spain to Alicante, and visit some friends, those who couldn't come to our wedding, along the way.

Then the idea was to strike northwards to Asturias, back along the north coast, into France and northwards again stopping in Brittany, then back home
