Gwilym's Adventure Blog

Yesterday was spent trundling up the motorway to Glasgow where we spent the night. Today was an awesome ride from Glasgow to Inverness mainly on the A82 but a few detours down some of the smaller twisty roads. The weather (as you can see from the pictures is just fantastic) as we headed over Ranoch Moor and down into Glencoe.

It has been a mixed week mainly based around marking college assignments but with a few cycle rides in between and preparing the Tiger for a week on the road. I head up to Glasgow later today and then the tour of Scotland starts tomorrow. Hopefully I will be able to find some wifi and blog some pictures over the next week

Out and about for the second day of Haygrove School Bronze DofE expedition and the weather was a lot better with some sun and blue skies in between the showers. Halse farm down to Dulverton along the River Barle is always a nice route especially when you get and Ice Cream at Tarr Steps

Out on Exmoor today working with Haygrove School Bronze DofE groups. Wet and misty but all good fun. I even found time to visit the Winsford Tea Rooms in between checking groups.

This afternoon I was down in Plymouth helping a friend move a yacht from Plymouth round to the Yealm estuary. We chose to motor round for speed, as there were jobs to be done (as there always are on a yacht) and we needed to maximise the work time and minimise the moving time. She is now happily back on her mooring in the Yealm.

The last day working with my Foundation Degree students from Bridgwater College today and we went Coasteering at Ansteys Cove. Low numbers today only 3 plus another member of staff but great weather and a good 2 hr session. The water is slowly getting warmer.

Wet and misty on The Quantock Hills today for my Bridgwater College students. It was their turn to lead a route today so we went to some places I haven't been to for a while (and probably won't go to again).
