Mill – Paul W. Baker Photography

After last weekend’s epic road trip to Stoke and back, I’m swapping stadium noise for something a little calmer — a return to the Norfolk Broads.

I’m not sure exactly where I’ll end up yet (half the fun is in the exploring), but the forecast says the weather’s heating up again. Perfect for boating (not that I do that), walking, or just sitting by the water with something cold in hand.

Of course, this is Britain, so “how long will it last?” is anyone’s guess. The sunshine could stick around for a week… or disappear before I’ve packed the car. Either way, I’ll make the most of it.

From the roar of the crowd to the ripple of the water — here’s looking forward to another weekend worth remembering, and the making of some great memories.

Yesterday I travelled some 3 hours to Warwickshire to photograph a Mill I have only heard of recently through watching vlogs of other bloggers namely Steve Stain and Martin Hajdukiewicz, both of whom are well established on YouTube and good friends.

I was expecting the trip to take between two and two and half hours but the sheer amount of traffic put pay to those expectations.

Thankfully I took the eBike on the back of the van as once there it was clear I was not going to be able to walk there. The bike did struggle to carry me towards the end of the ride and I had to get off and walk, but that was about five minutes, that walk is now felt in my painful legs.

The trip was reasonably successful but if I am honest I was hoping for better.

I was hoping to have the vlog out tomorrow, that is now not going to happen, I fell asleep, I hope to have it out on Sunday.
