Titus Flowering in Cambridge Botanical Gardens
Titus, Cambridge Botanical Gardens’ Titan Arum plant, flowered for the first time since 2004! This is a rare occasion, happening once every 10 years (on average), and the flower can only be seen for a few days. I arrived less than 24 hours after the flower opened, however it had already started to wilt. Nevertheless, […]

Norfolk Camping Weekend: Wells-next-the-Sea
With the arrival of a heatwave to the UK, and with no weekend plans ahead, we made the sensible decision to head to the coast for a weekend, camping. It was scorching hot, and incredibly packed. Nevertheless, Wells-next-the-Sea offers a beach sufficiently large that it is always possible to escape the crowds if one is […]
50 Miles in 50 Hours: Backpacking Across the Yorkshire Dales
A friend, Victoria, from my undergraduate years announced towards the end of last year that she would be taking leave from her work in 2017 in order to attempt to be the first person to walk from John o’Groats to Land’s End… via the (historical) highest point of every county in Great Britain. This mammoth […]

Sheringham and Cromer
With the arrival of a sudden heatwave across the UK, it was time to hit the beach. Forecasted temperatures were highest on the north Norfolk coast (around the mid twenties (celsius)) hence this was our chosen destination for the day. Clearly many people had the same idea. We arrived in Sheringham by rail replacement bus (!) and, […]

Cycling around Wicken Fen
After a week of rain, today we took advantage of the perfect weather to cycle over to Wicken Fen nature reserve. The route was about 55km. The first half was varied and interesting and so we treated this as a recreational outing, stopping in many places. The second half was through typical flat fenland and so […]
Home-sweet-home: Walking around Askwith
A pleasant walk from Burley-in-Wharfedale across the River Wharfe and up the fields around Askwith. To say that it was a bank holiday weekend, it was surprisingly quiet.
Holkham Beach & Wells-next-the-Sea
After leaving Sandringham, I felt the urge to visit the beach (just like everyone else had during the day!). We arrived at about 6pm, when most people had left, and almost had the beach to ourselves. The water temperature was surprisingly mild and I could fully understand those people who were making the most of […]
Sandringham Estate
Taking advantage of a hire car and a superb weather forecast, we drove over to Sandringham today. It seems that most people had decided to visit the coast instead, since the roads around Sandringham leading to beaches were blocked with traffic, yet once we got inside the estate, it seemed surprisingly quiet. The house and gardens […]
Seal Watching on Horsey Beach
Having been boating on Norfolk Broads, we made a trip to Horsey Beach upon the recommendation of the boat hire company… to see some seals. The weather was beautiful, and the detour turned out to be a great success. We must have seen in total about 100 seals swimming in the sea. They were conscious of […]
