Be Excellent To Each Other

Nice pictures. Macedonia looks a bit like Snowdonia!

Keeping with the outdoor theme

Your forehead looks a lot like Snowdonia

It goes all the way to my Cheddar Gorge.

Post-hike pint = best pint (especially after rain)

I'm still gorgeous

Going up in the world.

That's a lot of Mali

Dress for the job you want, not the one you have

OMG, this is the best photo of anyone, ever, and if I had a printer I would 100% print this out and put it on my craft room wall.

Unexpected BeeXer at the theatre!

It's a twofer!

Who spotted who first? Did you do what you did to me in London that one time and just shout out "John!" until he noticed you, or did you know you were both going to be there?

I'm surprised you turned round.

Third time lucky.

It’s my maiden name.

I spotted! Kern was quite content with beer and book. I wandered past the bar and I think I was subconsciously aware it was him (the place was like an institution, wide corridors and big doors, so I was a couple of metres away). Second time, actually in the bar this time, I was sure. Librocervesa interruptus!

That Kern does get around. I saw him at a Penn & Teller show once.

Dressed up for a 1990s murder party. My friends had to source a cassette player! Retro gaming!

I played a vineyard owner.

Haha, you look brilliant.

Did you find the murderer?

Were you the murderer?

One of the group got it.

As for the identity of the villain, I wouldn't want to ruin anyone else's 90s revival.

Giphy "spoilers!":

I've only ever been to one murder mystery party and the host didn't really know what they were doing and no-one really got into it.

So I went and got so, so very drunk; partly because my character (alcoholic Irish journalist) required it, but mostly because it seemed like a fun thing to do. Which it was, I was hilarious and everyone had fun, and I caused no more than 2 different arguments amongst other couples, so that's something.

Got eyes tested. Got assistant to the regional manager glasses. Win.

Haha the Julia Bradbury shrine.

That's giving me strong Henry Czerny in Clear and Present Danger vibes.

Me, mid-run on Saturday, trying (and failing) to look cool:

Welcome to an extended period of (on and off) attempting an on-the-run photo you don't hate.

If you manage it, you join an exclusive club.

Oh, I don't hate 'em. I find them amusing in the extreme

This is very much a picture we'll see on the news. Along with the comment, "We couldn't find anyone to say, 'he seemed so normal!' Strangely, no one was surprised."

A bear behind!

That look quite like Paddington’s coat.

Canal walk on the school run

Bavaria.

The 'Diff

Christ is that still there?

There's a version of it in France where, as you leave, they put you in a VR headset and let you see the world of Torchwood through his eyes.

Be Ianto.

I am feeling very Olympic today.

Me and my alpaca.

Where's that to?

It’s the old stadium in Athens.

Did you have a leisurely jog? When Jem and I went there last year we felt like we had to do the 400 metres around the arena.

On a kayak, on Lady Bird Lake in Austin, TX. Heading towards the Congress Avenue Bridge to see the bat colony.

Unfortunately they didn't make an appearance, at least not before our tour guide called it a day and had to get us to row back to the launch.

It was pretty hot and I had walking boos on, so I just walked briskly and logged it in Strava.

Is that what the cool kids are calling a pub crawl these days?

It’s quite a while since I’ve been one of the cool kids.
