Extreme watersports, a spot of ski-ing, and a very clean baby (Rousse)
Our activity holiday comprised water sports with JC, then ski-ing with S and T. I was actually quite frightened when it came to swimming here. JC had already hurt herself when she slipped on the rocks at the loch side, … Continue reading
Hotel thefts in Hawaii (Rousse)
Very soon I would be heading home from Hawaii. In the few hours before my flight I planned to sunbathe in the hotel grounds. I couldn’t risk lying on the beach. The waves were too unpredictable. That morning they’d already … Continue reading

Hugh Grant lookalike cited in affair accusations (Rousse)
I tried to work out why TPR and I were staying in this business hotel by peering at the badges of the other guests. One man appeared to be “the friendliest of the friendly”. This didn’t help, other than suggest … Continue reading

Commune cycle reunion of sorts (Rousse)
I can’t say that it was the most comfortable of nights, but the setting for sleep in the open was beautiful, right next to a beautiful Scottish salmon river. TPR and I would have been better off lying down on … Continue reading
Herman’s hermits’ secret identity (Rousse)
When I mentioned that I was a toddler fan of Herman and the Hermits, the American drag queen with the shock of orange hair could barely contain his/her excitement. “I wanted to marry Peter Noone when I was three” I … Continue reading

Discussing ‘Before I go to sleep’ is more tempting than running (Rousse)
I was assured that one of my parents would accompany me on my run around Arthur’s Seat at 06:00am. When neither would confirm which of the two would volunteer I was pretty sure that this would not happen. As things … Continue reading

Edinburgh International Festival Virgin Money Fireworks Concert lends magic to the city (Rousse)

Whitby for work and pleasure (Rousse)
It was difficult to tell whether we were in Whitby for work or pleasure. It was also unclear how the beautiful beaches of Uig in the Outer Hebrides had relocated to the coast of north east England. However, what was … Continue reading

Women didn’t know she was pregnant gives birth on holiday (Rousse)
I admired the tiny baby in her crib. The skinny woman boasted that her daughter was just four hours old. She’s delivered her at the hotel while on holiday. It was all totally unexpected: the new mother hadn’t even realised … Continue reading
