read all the books I own
Surrounded by books 4 months ago

I seem to be surrounded by books so much of the time. I recently got rid of a lot to free up space for new ideas to flow in, and they certainly have – the shelves are full again. I’ll be using the train a lot more again soon though, which will give me time to read once more. Looking forward to that.



improve my vocabulary (read all 2 entries…)
Use a dictionary 4 months ago

I’ve been making sure I look up words I’m not certain I know the definition of. The web makes it really easy to do that, since I’m sat at a computer most of the day.

I also have a desk calendar that has a new word each day, but the words there are either obvious to me, or far too obscure to be useful: not much in the middle ground!



fly in a hot air baloon (read all 3 entries…)
up up and away 17 months ago

It was fabulous. The time in the air was about an hour, but the whole experience was about four hours including setting up and breaking the balloon down again afterwards. The ascent and descent were so gentle you hardly noticed it moving. I can happily recommend this for anyone else who’s interested.
