First born at the helm of our rib, not long after we both successfully completed our RYA offshore powerboat certificates.
A great bonding experience and when she started in to the job market her RYA certificate was always one of the main interview topics which I suspect helped her on her way.


The rib was eventually renamed and sure you all know why 馃檨

An Omega life vest as well!

Wild horses at southern Patagonia. Also some sheeps on the back. I took this picture in 2006 from a moving car when vising a estancia that belong to a friend's father.

I ordered a new one. Still not sure if I really like the facelift, but the other one went to Russia.

Pylos Combat Agate - Created around 1450 BCE - likely manufactured in late Minoan Crete. Measuring just 3.6cm in length.
Created about 3500 years ago and only found for us to appreciate in 2015.
Carved with exceptional skill onto its hardstone surface with such fine details (some barely visible through the veining of the agate) that they can only be seen properly with photomicroscopy or a close-up camera lens.

An otter on the dock at the cottage we go to every year. Cool little guy. And a drone photo I took on a winters day...

I get your thinking but just a humble crow, we have quite a few pheasant around but they are keeping to the woodland at the moment.
