March 2013 – Nik Newark

https://niknewark.wordpress.com/2013/03

March 30, 2013. March 30, 2013. Loathe them or ignore them. You can’t actually like them can you? It snowed today, so I decided to go visit sunny Kathmandu. Or I might have booked the trip around 10 months ago. Can’t be sure now. I certainly hadn’t banked on being away in Florida the previous week. Not really sure what time zone I should be trying to be in now. Anyway. Boarding now…. Spur Of The Moment. Mark Roworth on Bee Propolis Metropolis. Rohan on Casper Spoonbender. Follow “Nik Newark”.

March 4, 2012. March 30, 2013. Does this thing still work? Polishes dust and cobwebs off of old weblog). Yes, seems to still be here. As Digi (7 years old) has now started keeping a blog ( http:/ kittenhead.weebly.com/. I’ve been shamed into updating mine. So I thought I’d write about what appears to be becoming a new family hobby : geocaching. Yesterday, we hid our first geocache, Casper Spoonbender ( http:/ coord.info/GC3DRNX. Having rushed out I didn’t have any swaps so I just signed the log.

A Yurt at Bedtime – Nik Newark

https://niknewark.wordpress.com/2010/07/23/a-yurt-at-bedtime

July 23, 2010. A Yurt at Bedtime. It is round. It is about 7 metres in diameter, and about 3 metres high. It has a very cosy wood burning stove in its centre. It has a large round window in the roof, and a couple of large wooden doors. It contains a bed and two futons. And two children who are excited and are having difficulty sleeping. It is a Yurt, and we like it. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. Enter your comment here. Fill in your details below or click an icon to log in:. Address never made public).

Will you haunt me? – Nik Newark

https://niknewark.wordpress.com/2010/08/30/will-you-haunt-me

August 30, 2010. August 30, 2010. Will you haunt me? A Cambridge band led by songwriter Martin Randle. The whole thing took around 2-3 hours, which is pretty quick by my standards, and whilst there are some rough edges (everything is first or second take), I’m pleased with the result. Hope you like it. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. Enter your comment here. Fill in your details below or click an icon to log in:. Address never made public).

September 11, 2011. September 11, 2011. September 11, 2011. Does mobile blogging still work. Sitting in the middle of a field waiting for Three Beards to arrive. They are very late. Totally Unacceptable. Also waiting for family to arrive from meeting the Fairy Queen. They also late. Also Totally Unacceptable. Wondering if my WordPress for iOS is actually still working, as I have touched neither it or my blog in over a year. Let’s see, hit “publish”…. Spur Of The Moment. Rohan on Casper Spoonbender.

April 2010 – Nik Newark

https://niknewark.wordpress.com/2010/04

April 3, 2010. The day of the pad and the stick. Later on the same day, I got to see several Chapman Sticks, played by Heartstrings. This is an instrument I’ve been lusting after for quite some time (but have never seen before, on account of being quite rare in the UK). Quite quite gorgeous things, perhaps even more so than the iPad…. Also, if you ever get a chance to see Uncle Fud, then do so. Spur Of The Moment. Mark Roworth on Bee Propolis Metropolis.

May 2010 – Nik Newark

https://niknewark.wordpress.com/2010/05

May 16, 2010. May 14, 2010. I woke up this morning, and checked my phone (which I keep by the side of my bed). It was open on the ‘notes’ app (which I seldom use). It appears that 10 minutes before I woke, my 3 year old daughter had picked up my phone, opened the app and typed me a message. When I got out of bed, I found her in the bathroom folding all of the flannels into quarters and making them into a quilt. Spur Of The Moment. Mark Roworth on Bee Propolis Metropolis.

July 2, 2010. The man had just put his children to bed, but no matter how many times he put his four-year-old daughter to bed, she would get up again after five minutes. First time, she needed some water, second time she needed a wee, third time she wanted to give me some books about fairies, as “they are Tamsin’s and I can’t read them”. 8220;Honestly Kalila”, he said, “when are you going to learn to stay in your bed and go to sleep?
