If you know why my son made me take this photo on our day trip to London, then you are probably suffering like we are…

Do good anyway

Official photos from last weekend’s Vitality London 10k - looks like I was enjoying myself (and have no idea how to put a number on straight!) Donate here for @londoncf.bluesky.com: 2025vitalitylondon10000.enthuse.com/pf/paul-windo

Don’t know if I have seen that one (but maybe I have just forgotten?!) 😂

Do tell, which movie was so forgettable that you forgot you had already seen it…?! (Been there, done that!)

Missing the sea already… people who live by the coast, how do you ever get anything done?!

The whole family ‘unexpectedly’ did #Felixstowe #ParkRun… nice way to finish off our little break in the sun ☀️

Double #rainbow over the #NorthSea at #Felixstowe (#Suffolk #UK) earlier today…

Ah… #SnakesOfBluesky apparently 😂

Disappointed to discover a relative lack of #SnakesOfBlusky this #WorldSnakeDay…

This little beauty popped up in our garden earlier this week 🐍 #GrassSnake #UKReptiles #Bedfordshire #UK

Apparently I am a ‘runner’ now… #Couchto5K completed and first proper run completed with my eldest too 🙂 #RunTheWade #Biggleswade5K

Yesterday I filmed a steam engine racing past near my house - it’s not often you get to see them in full flight like this… a nice bonus on my lunch time walk! #Britannia

A ‘What’s On’ chalk board showing the different presentations throughout the week - Rave On For The Avon is shown as the last listing

A discussion panel at the end of the screening, including the film’s director, Charlotte Sawyer

Any of the #wildswim folks on here seen #RaveOnForTheAvon? I saw it last night in London and it was brilliant. They are taking it round the country so catch it if you can: www.eightysita.com/raveonforthe...

A great day of family time - including a player of the match performance… now I have just finished making 12 origami doves for Sunday School in the morning 😂 (Can anyone relate?!)

This now feels like a big week - can we afford not to bring in replacements now…?

Bet you wished you hadn’t now. What a terrible night at the Vic.

I remember doing a version of this - ‘3 rings when you leave’ so you would know the likely arrival time. Every time we visited my cousins or vice versa. Seems bizarre now but then… essential family etiquette 🙂

Being a parent means, no matter how old your kids are, it becomes inbuilt when driving past a field with horses in it to automatically exclaim “Look! Horsies!”

The outside of the narrow office booth, containing a desk shelf, a tall stool, a laptop and a yellow water bottle.

It probably betrays my age (and my long association with children’s work) but I feel like the meeting booths at our new office space are a bit too much like gunge tanks… 😂

A group of people in a frozen lake, wearing swimming costumes and woolly hats, holding up large slabs of broken ice triumphantly.

Actual Christmas was good but Swimmer’s Christmas was even better! Only my second ice-breaking ice swim, but so so good #wildswimming #iceswimming

Belatedly, happy Christmas to you all 🙂

A classic - timeless stuff

Well worth it. It’s on Netflix. Honourable mention too for Carry On with Taron Egerton… essentially Die Hard 2 Lite 🙂

Have you seen Violent Night Rob? It’s like they went, “how do we make Die Hard but with all the emphasis on Christmas so there can be absolutely no disputing (even has a whole sequence homaging Home Alone!)
