the first wild camp.

“what a crack that was” the first wild camp in the van, don't think you could find a better place than the rollright stone’s they seem to still hold that magic we all have forgotten about from the past, this place is just so old, the van played her part to the best and never needed solar power once, (god bless her and all who sail in her) and as you can see it wasn't just a stunning sunrise i got,but also a sunset too

      (ps, I'll put the photo album on later)

live blog,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

this is a live blog, at this moment in time poppy and me are in a lay-by in the middle of nowhere having our first go at wild camping, will write more tomorrow,

a cracking day out in London

“that was another cracking day out in London yesterday” i think it’s going to be the start of many of them for poppy and her pet monkey,

London is one hell of a place and for me it did make a nice change being there on the ground to see it all, than tear arseing round it in a white van,

elephant hunting around London,,,,,,,,(part three)

had another run to London today to a place called brick lane, i know it very well and spent a lot of time there in my market day’s,i real must spend some time there with the camera it’s just one hell of a place, also today i found out  that it was near or damn it the end of the elephant parade, they have all been gathered together at Chelsea barrack’s ready to be sold, we're off up to London tomorrow for a day out so i should find out more then, but i did stop off and photographed some more, get’s my total to 185 now.

 

the Leamington peace festival,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

a cracking weekend at poppy’s “yet again”, and Leamington spa put on another good show again this year  with the peace festival, “think a good time was had by all”

 

 

“well done Warwick county council” i think other town’s should take their example,,,,,,,,,,,

Wayland’s smithy..

this will bring it all bang up to date, Saturday took poppy and i off to one of our favourite place’s Wayland’s smithy, a long barrow built around 3700bc in Oxfordshire,

  

it’s a nice walk along the Ridgway to the site as well, nothing but rolling hill’s and every wild flower you could imagine, 

this is a bit of a catch up time thing,,,,,,,

this is a bit of a catch up time thing, had the van out again over the last bank holiday and did brean and Glastonbury in Somerset, "a very good weekend too" we had planed to go to  Shrewsbury, the Australian pink floyd were going to be doing a big open air gig there, but it got pulled a few day's before, shame really their one hell of a band, the closest thing you'll ever get to the real floyd,

but all that aside we had a great time, brean was just your real old british seaside holiday park "sea, sand, and a stick of rock",   

  

and then onto Glastonbury, "what a town" it's just something else" the abbey ruin's are just awesome, the town it's self is hard to describe, "it's like going to toy town" it's just books, stone's, peace, and fairy's,

elephant hunting around london,,,,,,,,(part two)

think I've really got the elephant spotting bug now, photographed another twenty today so that's thirty three in total so far, just another two hundred and seventeen to go

"elephant hunting around london" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"as strange as the title may sound" there's a street art thing going on all over London at the moment called the elephant parade, it's well worth a trip to London to see them, i get to London a couple of times a week and have now got the bug for spotting and photographing them, im up to number thirteen so far, only another two hundred and thirty seven to go so here's some of my faveroit's so far

here's a link to what it's all about http://www.elephantfamily.org/
