Free-riding on the Granton ferry (Rousse)
I cycled back from town along the Forth estuary. When I reached Granton I had two options: to cross the water by ferry or to cycle inland to avoid the crossing. A little old lady advised me that the ferry … Continue reading

Cousin colouring comparison check (Rousse)
GT stuck his ginger head through the kitchen window of the log cabin in rural Canada. ‘Who the hell are you, and what are you doing here?!’ he demanded to know. He had no idea that the ‘English squatters’ now … Continue reading

Lottery winners on a plane (Rousse)
I was extremely lucky to have two seats to myself on the long flight across the Atlantic. I even managed to get some sleep in the first couple of hours of the journey. However, I was very curious about the … Continue reading
