sculptures

A couple of weeks ago I went on an outing with my mum to The Sculpture Park near Farnham.

There was an unbelievable amount to see, with about 600 statues in the woods and water gardens. Almost too much to cram into one visit...

Some pictures from my recent trip to Italy.

We stayed in a small village close to the border with Switzerland and spent our time exploring the area and sampling the ice cream. I could even see the lake from my bed - perfect.

It was a really relaxing time. Oh, apart from the couple of days where we went to see some REALLY fast cars.

I made Derek a mix CD for his birthday.
He's getting on a bit now...

cycling on cliff tops

Yesterday I went on an impromptu cycle ride from Brighton to Eastbourne with some fellow outdoor explorers. 

It was a great adventure on unsuitable bikes! We crossed golf courses, rivers, and harbours and saw a lot of the coast on the way.

I had my doubts we were going to make it at one point when we were climbing up and down the Seven Sisters at dusk, but we made it into Eastbourne in the dark, windswept and celebratory. I think it was harder than the London to Brighton in parts.

I also think there are more than seven sisters...
