It is 5 AM and Mark and I are packing for our next leg on the journey to Sicily. #sicily2015 #sicily #holiday #railway #train #journey #VisuallyImpaired #blind #independent #august #2015 #mercure #hotel #gare #lyon

Mark and I make a bee line for the taxi rank at Gare Du Nord in Paris. #sicily2015 #sicily #holiday #railway #train #journey #VisuallyImpaired #blind #independent #august #2015 #paris #nord #taxi #eurostar

...not in an Octupus's garden but in the Channel Tunnel. #sicily2015 #sicily #holiday #railway #train #journey #VisuallyImpaired #blind #independent #august #2015

Before getting stuck in to the final bits of packing that I need to complete I take a wander down to the banks of the river Thames to enjoy the sunshine and clear air. #sicily2015 #sicily #holiday #railway #train #journey #VisuallyImpaired #blind #independent #august #2015 #River #Thames #London #Richmond

After eight months of planning I'm off to Sicily - by train all the way! #sicily2015 #cane #GuidDog #travel

A look back to the summer when our dogs had a lovely run together. #GuideDog #free #run #vance #ben #usher #woods

Back in the summer I came across a folly adjacent to the Royal Festival Hall on London's Southbank, but never got around to uploading the recording. So here it is! Since I can't find my original photograph the image is from Wikimedia commons, at: https://commons.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Royalfestivalhall.jpg

Another recording from the drafts archive, taking one evening in Richmond after a trip to the vet. The recording is cut short to avoid catching too much of the gentleman at the end.

I was clearing out some old draft recordings when I came across this one from earlier in the year and thought it worth uploading. This depicts a walk through the streets of Whitby in North Yorkshire, which I visited as part of a grand day out from York. I unfortunately don't have a photograph to hand to upload so you will just have to imagine!

A bit more of Ticket 415 at the Great Yorkshire Show in July 2015 #band #BlackSheep #beer #GreatYorkshireShow

The Black Sheep beer tent has become a landmark of the Great Yorkshire Show in recent years - and what does every good beer tent need, but a great pub rock band! Ticket 415 has to have the least memorable name of any band I've heard of, but thankfully they make up for it in quality. We ended up staying for the whole of the first set! #band #BlackSheep #GreatYorkshireShow

It is a warm morning in July and time for guide dog Vance to have his tablets.
