I feel like I haven't spent much time at home lately. This is partly due to the fact that I have spent a large amount of it away, either on Scout Camp or in Devon. Devon is a long way from Staffordshire, but the 4-hour-plus car journey is a small price to pay. Life seems … Continue reading Month +23: Beyond the Trails
