A Sicilian adventure

 Just returned - what a fantastic place - go visit!

Full on Scotland

Just come back from a trip to Edinburgh - busy place. We, me and Richard, did one of these. Brilliant way of finding out about the city. Plus it ends in a pub! 

Also been doing a bit of work - tell me about it, I need a lie down. Some exciting AI work looking at how it can be used to lighted the burden of cyber and safety compliance with standards. Very impressive these tools.

Here's a link to some of the work

Anyway - off to Loch Fyne festival now.....like you do.

 

Non-stop retirement

 It's tough this retirment stuff. 

Done quite a bit of travelling and sorting over the last 3 months. Wales, Glasgow, Wales again. Some bigger trips coming up.....

On things not travelling, we have now bought our 3rd and final (I think) Bob Dylan print - Roy's motel. We now have 3 motel scenes which just remind us of our time in the USA. Plus they are nice to looks at. Thank you Castle Fine Art.

Sketches from the North Pole trip

 

North Pole

 Just of on a trip to the North Pole, well close enough to call it that. Going to Svalbard, like you do, for a bit of northern lights viewing. 

Travel was also on the retirement agenda so packing some of that in while I can. Obviously taking my new sets pad with me. Just hope there is enough light to see something or I will be left sketching the night sky.

Maybe pictures as we go.....
