I’ve been lucky to spend a week in Japan, travelling to Kyoto, Hakone, and Tokyo. Got the chance to see some wonderful sights, and found the early spring climate much easier to cope with than the sweltering hot summer months of a previous trip.

I didn’t even make it in to December before I got hit by Whamageddon - thanks Siri 🫣

My home printer seems to have surrendered in the battle ‘to be seen’ by my pc and favour of placing ink blotches randomly on parts of photos I’m trying to print out.

End of year trip to New York. Not sure what to make of weather forecasts - iPad app seems to be predicting the end of days. iPhone just says a bit of rain. We shall see.

Early morning view Cambridge and the Charles River. Quite a bit colder than yesterday.

In Gin related news, I have discovered Bombay Subset Gin. It is quite something.

Well this is exciting, Boston here I come.

Yikes, what to put in my first post. I’ll start with a photo of me and Mrs G from a family holiday in Crete the other week. I burn as easy as anything, hence the tatty hat.
