I decided to book a few nights in a hotel in the New Forest this weekend. I’m staying in Lyndhurst – a nice town that desperately needs a by-pass.
On my way I made a couple of stops – first at Titchfield Abbey and then in Southampton.

 7th March 2010 at 8:02 pmOK, well not quite. Still this was the sunniest weekend of the year so far so I headed down to Hastings for the day.
Although it was sunny, it was no day for sitting on the beach – there was an icy wind blowing. 3rd December 2009 at 7:12 pmI had the privilege of being amongst a select group invited to Fuller’s brewery to celebrate the 10th anniversary of their Fine Ale Club. 
The event included a guided tasting with their Master Brewer and we got to sample some great beers. They are all 10/10 so I have ranked them in the order of my preference. Continue reading “Fuller’s Fine Ale Club Tenth Anniversary” » 5th November 2009 at 2:55 pmI previously ran my WordPress blog on an OS X client operating system. I’ve just bought a new Mac Mini running Snow Leopard Server to replace the old Mac Mini. In theory it should be a lot more straight forward on the Server version of the operating system as everything you need is pre-installed. In practice, once you know what you need to do, it’s quite simple – but finding these things out is not so simple. In the hope this will help others here is my 4 step plan for getting Snow Leopard Server ready for WordPress.

First stop at the Gorge was Gough’s cave where there are lots of very impressive formations to view. 18th October 2009 at 7:44 pmStarted with a trip to Dartmouth Castle – my SatNav decided I needed an unnecessary trip on the car ferry across the the River Dart.
17th October 2009 at 7:48 pmFor my mini-break, chose a lodge at the edge of Dartmoor, just a little north of Newton Abbot. As it was a very late booking, I got a great price on a huge three bedroom lodge on the side on a valley – it was very luxurious with high quality fixtures and fittings. I started the day at Lydford Gorge, on the north east side of Dartmoor – I last visited it 5 years ago and then it was quite an overcast day, so it was great to have sunny weather for this visit. I started at the visitor’s centre and walked along the one side to the other end of the gorge. This undulating path runs along the top of the gorge with a steep drop to one side. It is very wooded and there are lots of steep climbs to tackle.
