Travel and Hospitals – Burkina Faso, Part Two
After my experiences in Banfora, I hoped I wouldn’t end up in another hospital in Burkina Faso. BAH! I ended up in another TWO! Suffice to say it’s not the ideal country to end up in hospital in, should you have a choice. In Bobo-Diolosso I was taken the main hospital there. Far far bigger …

Getting Your Hobbit On. At Hobbiton, New Zealand.
Yes, my obsession with ridiculous titles for my blog posts shows no signs whatsoever of abating! I’m not sure if everyone is aware, but the farm used for ‘The Shire’ as part of the Hobbit and Lord of the Rings films is now a tourist attraction. It’s basically a large number of various sized doors …

The colours of the geothermal spring at Waiotapu, near Rotorua, New Zealand, are absolutely stunning. The sulphur and other gases and minerals produce some amazing effects and bright colours. And when you toggle the colour saturation, it turns out quite special!
Doctor Who Festival Wrap
I was going to present a Doctor Who Festival ‘Rap’ but thought it would probably end up being pretty lame. The reason I headed to Sydney was solely to attend this amazing event at the Hodern Pavilion in the same precinct as the Sydney Cricket Ground. I did end up with another day in Sydney, …
A Week in New Zealand (Part Two)
Picking up from my post a couple of days ago, here’s the second part to my recent week in New Zealand. Day Four The fourth day in New Zealand brought something I was very much excited about visiting before going there – Hobbiton! A farm which was transformed into the Shire for the Lord …
Foto Friday – Capaldi on the Big Screen
I think that in one trip you can have so many highlights. But going to Sydney to the Doctor Who Festival and meeting Peter Capaldi was just pretty gosh darned hard to beat! A wonderful man, the time he had for the fans and his honesty are only matched by his incredible performances, not least …
A Week in New Zealand (Part One)
And here I am back safe and sound in Australia from my first ever trip to our neighbours across the ditch, New Zealand. Ironic that it has taken me so long to get there when I’ve been as far away as Central Asia, Iceland and Cameroon but there you go. So time for a bit …
