Camping on the Wildside: Wharram Percy Walk
http://campingonthewildside.blogspot.com/2012/03/wharram-percy-walk.html
Camping on the Wildside. Thursday, 15 March 2012. Not quite the morning I'd hoped for when thinking of taking a wander over to Wharram Percy, the deserted medieval village not far from here. The fog was pretty thick, so it was dank and cold as I made my way to my walk. The spot you start the walk down to the village has this information board to give an overview of where you're going. It's just shy of seventy miles, so he was fair motoring! I was much more leisurely. A couple of bracket fungi and some Li...

Camping on the Wildside: Clan of the Burger Burners Pocklington Paddle
http://campingonthewildside.blogspot.com/2013/02/clan-of-burger-burners-pocklington.html
Camping on the Wildside. Thursday, 14 February 2013. Clan of the Burger Burners Pocklington Paddle. Well, what can I say, we tried but failed to get the hammocks out and play in the woods last weekend. So, to salvage the weekend passes so graciously granted by our better halves, an impromptue paddle on the canal was arranged. Now, my companions did express concern over my well-being but I'd hoped, at least for a score of five or more for my attempted backwards somersalt! Rich paddled Joel's Apache all th...

Camping on the Wildside: May 2012
http://campingonthewildside.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Camping on the Wildside. Tuesday, 29 May 2012. As it moved about more and played on the surface it became clear that yes, it was an Otter. The first I've ever seen in the wild. Chuffed to bits doesn't cover it. If it poured with rain from this moment onwards I'd have still had a great time. Kev looking comfy in his yak. We explore the back of a couple of islands near to where we'll camp to get the last few bits of fuel required and found a nice little sun trap. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Thank you for t...

Camping on the Wildside: Teacher training, a good excuse for a picnic!
http://campingonthewildside.blogspot.com/2012/06/teacher-training-good-excuse-for-picnic.html
Camping on the Wildside. Sunday, 17 June 2012. Teacher training, a good excuse for a picnic! It should have been the first day back to school for the boys, but looking at their school calendar it was listed as being a teacher training day. Quite why they need an extra day after a week of no kids I don't get, but there you go! The overcast weather meant that we had plenty of space to park, though I do get a little wound up by the number of people who use the area to empty their dogs! Fuel gathered, fire l...

Camping on the Wildside. Saturday, 25 February 2012. The weather on Friday morning wasn't too appealing when I thought of going for a walk, but after lunch things improved and became a very sunny day. So much so that going for a wander up to the site of the old castle which overlooks the village to stretch the legs and get some fresh air into Will and I seemed the thing to do. Both my boys now take an interest in the tracks in the mud here, though dog, tractor and horse being the most usual. We poddled a...
