In August 2014 I was invited to an old work colleague / friends wedding. He had already got married in London to his wife with just a few friends as witness, however they wanted to marry again in their home country with more of their friends and family with them. This was definitely an opportunity I…
Mid-week I travelled to St. Ouen to see another lighthouse, unfortunately the lighthouse was just a small signal station, nothing as grand as I had previously seen. Something else of interest at the site however was Grosnez Castle. Dating back to the 14th Century Grosnez is a ruin of its former self, with just one…

I have since done a little more web crawling and research because I found it quite an interesting piece of engineering. I was actually standing on the bridge with Reiss when it…
Something that doesn’t show in my blog is that I am a huge music fan. It probably doesn’t show because I don’t play any instruments or have any participation beyond the enjoyment of listening. Because we have come to the end of 2012 and are now looking forward to what the New Year may bring…
