  • Mud Guard Mk1

    With cycling to work, with a round trip of about 11 miles a day, it takes it’s toll on the bike so after a couple of years of use it is cheaper to buy a new bike, than to replace and fix all the things. I did this recently which was nice. It came with…

  • Blackpool Air Show 2019

    This Sunday we braved the weather for the 2019 Blackpool Air Show. Even though the country was on alert for bad weather, and many weekend events were cancelled including the Lytham Kite Festival that we were also going to. Blackpool went ahead, but only on the Sunday instead a two day event. Knowing that everyone…

  • A bit of a last minute decision Friday night that we were off to Manchester Comic Con on Saturday… Tickets booked and a quick train time check, and that was that….

  • Warriors Vs Blackbrook

    Sunday afternoon was my eldest son’s rugby game against Blackbrook Royals. Now last time we played them away, they really did a number on us, and we lost by a big score. I think our boy’s were not going to let it go the same way at home.

  • May the 4th means a little bit more than just Star Wars day to us here at the Dixon’s. Yes we do like the long running space saga, but it’s also the day we welcomed our own Kylo into our house. Today will be his 3rd year with us and his 5th Birthday. As I…

  • Easter Weekend 2019

    We have just had such a lovely Easter Weekend. The weather could not have been any better for a long Bank holiday. It was nice to spend time in the garden, which is really the first time this year with a BBQ, pool and egg hunting.

  • Center Parcs Break

    Just back from a great short break at Sherwood Forest Center Parcs. Lot’s of food, walks, cycling, swimming and plenty of fresh air was had.
