Over the past winter I’mve been mulling over leaving both microadventures and bigger expeditions behind entirely and moving on to pastures new. The NCT offer antenatal courses which are a great way to find out more about birth, labour and life with a new baby. And if you’re worried, you can always make them nice and toasty again by holding them close.
There’s an airing cupboard and a modern double-glazed window, for practicality. The smaller of the rooms faces the front and enjoys that elevated view, the triangular window bay designed to capture more light, also doubles up as a useful shelf to help style the room. The rear double bedroom gets the morning light due to the southeastern aspect, and it has a view over the garden.
If you’re using a sling or carrier, a good-sized umbrella will do the trick nicely too. Try to choose clothes that allow your baby to move their arms and legs as easily as possible. You might be tempted to buy the cutest little woollen coat but remember to think comfort over adorability.
Our people
The voucher for Cutebit The Allotment was a very nice gesture and we thank you for that.The bonus we did not expect was that we were not woken by the seagulls we just did not hear them! Thanks Aspects for the voucher and also the owners for theirs so we had a nice little sum to spend at the deli on a bagful of treats. Property is outstanding Fabulous location.
- If you are like me then I highly recommend the Last Castle at Viklari, the views and venue are incredible.
- Property is outstanding Fabulous location.
- Yet it’s a good idea to err on the side of a cooler, not warmer, bedroom for your baby.
- It was nice and clean on arrival.
- Sit back and put your feet up listening to the waves roll onto the beach.
- Back in 2010 I wrote that microadventures should be “fulfilling, challenging and worthwhile”.
Northern theatre round-up
You’ll be surprised what you can do with a bit of felt! My own view, and to be clear in case it isn’t obvious, I’m not a successful hifi manufacturer – is that they should stick to their idiosyncratic guns for things like the N50. You feel there is a bit of reference to this in the Steve Sells’ quotes. Backup may end up costing less than the N50 but it’s certainly something I’m going to explore later this week whilst waiting to see how email comms between increasingly grumpy manufacturer and worryingly silent dealer pan out. I’d love hear him talk about all the NC products the way only he can about their approach, ideas, designs etc. I actually ordered mine when it was announced, a bit of a gamble I admit, but I feel Steve has done a great job and as I’m lucky enough to also own the original Nait, I can appreciate how it builds on the performance of the original.
- Depending on the weather, I recommend cleaning the balcony glass and doors – you might need to do this a couple of times but worth it for the view!!
- In which case, getting it into the review cycle against probably fairly limited competition might have made sales a bit slower, but sustained for longer.
- This is such a lovely, warm and comfortable place to stay, in a fabulous location.
- Excellent locationSo many great restaurants close by View from living room is beautiful!
- Liberals to a fault, Board members protested their own goodwill a bit too much—and took extreme care not to offend anyone inside or outside the room for any individualizable reason.
- Focsle Down Under is a fantastic property, comfy, spacious and bright, the owners have thought of everything and more.
W is for Winter…
Thank you to the owners for sharing their gorgeous house. Hope that you had a great time, and hopefully see you back here soon! Thanks for your feedback; we’re glad to hear that you liked finding all the goodies in the beach locker. Make sure you check out the contents of the beach locker! Did have a leak but was sorted same day no problem at all.
It’s all about growth
We’ve improved the service so we can make sure people are served quicker. Drinks are brought to guests rather than people packing out the bar. That’s why on a Monday afternoon this week Cloud 23 had fifty two afternoon teas booked in (£19.95 or with Champagne, £27.95). The exciting view is the one into the city centre rather than out to the Cheshire plain, but most of the north side will still only be used as overspill for the main bar, rather than being automatically open. Indeed, at its best the new Cloud 23 captures a classic late fifties, early sixties atmosphere as though Sophia Loren or Steve McQueen are about to walk in and order Cosmopolitans. The gold and silver is perhaps supposed to fit the idea – the hotel owner being a Greek Cypriot – of Cloud 23 being a Mancunian Mount Olympus.

Or to provide a way for more people to sample outdoor adventures and the lessons and benefits that they offer up. I see the opportunity to add more purpose to microadventures. I began dabbling with microadventures because I found myself no longer to disappear for months on end but I still yearned for endeavour and distant horizons.
We loved the sea view and the location – right on the beach and in the cute bit of St Ives with all the cute streets and shops. The location is amazing and the house has everything you need for a very happy holiday! A private gate onto the beach (height of sand allowing) makes this an ideal location for families hopping on and off body boards. Just for view and fact that it has the perfect location in St Ives between the two best beaches (and beach cafes – awesome food). Great place to stay, very comfortable, with fantastic views. Stunning views, easy access onto the beach, comfortable apartment and easy access into town – we recommend it highly.
Festive fun and top-class racing this winter at Wincanton Racecourse!
This also reflects interior designer Lloyd Chapman’s ideas – see the article above. From 230ft up in the sky people are diving into the city centre. Look what we have outside our windows, look at our location.” There’s food coming on too from our chef David Gale and that’ll be about comfort also with a range of small bites.
As the Board members set up chairs for the meeting, there’s a cute bit of metatheatre when Suzanne mentions that one of the past school parents was a clown. One of our team will be in contact with you shortly to confirm your viewing time. There is scope to add wardrobes on either side of the chimney breast, and there is a cute bit of storage tucked away to the left of the window. Couple this with its elevated position, and it makes for a nice view and a feeling of privacy. It has a view that looks down Piquet Road, and it doesn’t oppose another house. “The Girl of the Golden West” may not have Clint Eastwood, but it’s a pretty good spaghetti western nevertheless.
Tiny hands and feet will inevitably feel cold in cold weather – this is perfectly normal. To check you’ve got the number of layers just right, check their tummy as it’s a much better indicator than their hands. And if you’re still worried that your baby’s cold, lay a blanket over them after they’re safely strapped in. Cars can be icy cold to get into in the wintertime but they soon warm up. If there is too much padding between your baby and their car seat straps, the seat will not be as safe. That’s right, you’ve just added several new layers to the joys of baby-changing.
The gorgeous Porthmeor beach is visible from the lounge, watch the sunset from the Juliet balcony. Sit back and put your feet up listening to the waves roll onto the beach. I love spending time in the wild, tackling new and challenging experiences, kipping in bivvy bags. And so, seven years on, what does the idea of a microadventure mean to me? Witness, for example, Holiday Inn UK advertising a weekend break in a city hotel, complete with cafés, bars and restaurants, as a microadventure. I’mve always taken that as a compliment that the idea works.
