I've had another blog for a number of years, but I'd forgotten all the little details in formatting when you set up for the first time. I also need to update my old blog to the latest WP...

My excuse at the time was that I had young kids, was working a standard 60hour week plus travel throughout Europe and didnt have time. Ok well I didnt! I also went from around 10st/7lbs up to 13st. Changed the job routine, updated my kit (and still havent stopped), walked with the kids, got the wife interested in camping and since then its been much better. Would still like more time in the hills but I will make do with the improvements I have engineered for now! welcome to the wonderful world of blogging FGW… :)
