We went down to Somerset last weekend to visit the newly delivered niece and see L&K, and for the first time in ages, took some photos. These are them.
I am very partial to some of them.

Come, see the photos nobody else has seen!
I’ve put together a set in flickr of the photos that, it says, have 0 views. Like this picture of Federal Hall, NYC, which has been hanging around for a million years. Also surprising underviewed: A very cute picture of Holly in 2005, my 30th Birthday and Scott’s 40th Birthday.

Today was a Very Important Day – if you need to ask why you don’t need to know – last night I dreamt of having to perform on stage with Ricky Gervais but I don’t know my lines or what I’m meant to do – what could it all mean?! (#)

Cycling
Today was a beautiful morning for a cycle. But why were there so many people out and about? Loads of parents and children, and a whole pride of runners in blue. Such a shame it had to end at work. (#) It also seems that I’ve lost my bus pass, so I guess I’m going to be cycling a lot more oftener, then. (#)

I think some of the posts I’ve imported from the old Mushkush incarnations have been imported with the wrong dates. (#) This could make life a little awkward.
Feminism
Sociological Images has a post deconstructing Disney’s portrayal of traditional gender roles of princesses and princes. (#)
Poverty
Sociological Images also has some nice images illustrating income inequality in the US. (#)
Racism
Sociological Images (again!) has a fascinating but depressing post on race and dating websites that reinforces evidence about the cultural prejudices about race. (#)

A discreet self catering luxury town house, situated in the old part of Valletta – dating back to the Knights of Malta. The house has a large bedroom with ensuite facilities, bathroom with tub, living room and separate kitchen. The decor is a mix of Maltese style baroque and bespoke designer furniture. An ideal setting for a romantic stay, with easy access to the rest of the island. Bold, sophisticated & affordable.

Adventure Sports and Activities in Edinburgh and Glasgow, Scotland

It’s not in the dictionary, but if it was, Go Ape would be described as a ‘high-wire forest adventure’.</p>
That means we build giant obstacle courses up in the trees using ladders, walkways, bridges and tunnels made of wood, rope and super-strong wire, and top it all off with the country’s best zip lines (including the longest at 426 metres – check it out on You Tube).
We then kit people out with harnesses, pulleys and karabiners and let them loose into the forest canopy.
The result is spectacular. The Go Ape experience gets the adrenalin pumping, gets people out of their comfort zones and above all (no pun intended), it’s just great fun.
