Close encounters of a nature kind

Close encounters of a nature kind

Sandro Pecorella Wed 27 Nov 2024

When earlier this year my wife mentioned that we should go on a safari to Central Africa, as it was on top of her bucket list, little did I imagine how truly impressive this experience would eventually be, and after some slight hesitation upon agreeing I was immediately asked for the credit card details as […]

Take the man out the market…

Take the man out the market…

Charles Porter Fri 22 Nov 2024

There will be no awards for guessing the subject matter of this, my latest blog post. Having just returned from visiting two continents for the very first time, North and South America, this blog shall contain a tale or two of my travels and an interesting foreign exchange encounter. It’s unknown whether visiting Peru during […]

Wholesome Autumn Day

Wholesome Autumn Day

Bujin Erdenetuya Wed 13 Nov 2024

As a good weekend activity to mark Bonfire Night, I attended the Battersea Park fireworks display this year. I always enjoy getting some fresh air and taking a leisurely walk in the park. The inaugural Battersea Park firework display occurred in 2021 on November 6 and 7; since then, it has become an annual event […]

Malta Blues

Malta Blues

Meg Bonello Fri 8 Nov 2024

Waaaay back in April this year I managed to visit Malta, a country that is near and dear to my heart. If you didn’t know, my surname (Bonello) is considered the ‘Smith’ of Malta – a very common name – and whilst I wasn’t born in Malta, my Nanu (Granddad) and my Mum lived there […]

A Buggy Good Time

A Buggy Good Time

Oscar Hunwick Fri 11 Oct 2024

Last year, I embarked on a trip to the Island of Kos, Greece, or as some would agree, Paradise. While Kos is best known for its sandy beaches and turquoise waters, it is also enriched with Greek and Roman history and is thought to be the birthplace of the ancient physician Hippocrates. With the possibility […]

Watford Memory Walk

Watford Memory Walk

Julie Neal Thu 3 Oct 2024

Back in early September, 5-months after losing my father to Alzheimer’s, I took part in a charity event: the Memory Walk in Watford’s Cassiobury Park.  The forecast leading up to the day had threatened rain, but thankfully that didn’t come to fruition.  In fact, the sun broke through the clouds and whilst it was quite […]

What if?

What if?

Edward Yuen Thu 26 Sep 2024

As a son of a pair of first-generation Chinese immigrants, I have been told by my father throughout my upbringing that he had moved to England in the 80’s in hopes that his would-be family might be able to grow up with opportunities that he was not afforded in his youth. Having lived through the […]

The Square Mile

The Square Mile

Humphrey Percy Thu 19 Sep 2024

A lack of time as well as human nature means that we all know the immediate area surrounding our workplaces very well and beyond a few hundred meters less so. Once the working day is over and maybe after some well earned bar time, we go home.  What we tend not to do is explore […]

A trip down to Dorset, Durdle Door

A trip down to Dorset, Durdle Door

Alex Yates Thu 12 Sep 2024

Every year we take a trip down to Dorset, escaping the busy life of London as it offers a chance to relax. One of my most enjoyable things to do is visit Lulworth cove & Durdle Door. Durdle Door is a stunning natural limestone arch located on the Jurassic Coast near Lulworth in Dorset, England. […]

Matthew Young Thu 29 Aug 2024

This time last year, I was lucky enough to embark on one of the best experiences of my life. For the month of August 2023 I volunteered at a safari park/game reserve near Port Elizabeth in South Africa. 11 other volunteers from all around the world and myself, stayed in the very heart of the […]

No place like home

No place like home

Emily Matthews Thu 22 Aug 2024

The Kingdom of Tonga… my home. This small archipelago, nestled in the South Pacific Ocean just south of Samoa and about two-thirds of the way from Hawaii to New Zealand, holds a special place in my heart. Even now, at 29, memories of my childhood in Tonga remain vivid, filled with the sights, sounds, and […]
