Two weekends ago, Hazel and I were in Madrid enjoying the sunshine and a few bottles of Rioja. Pictures here. It was SO nice to get away from it all and have some time together, visiting new places and having the chance to sit by the pool and relax.

Last weekend we were at T in the Park, a big music festival where we started with muddy conditions and ended with some very pleasant weather. Those pictures are here.

This weekend I'm doing the Edinburgh Rat Race (here's last year's race). This year I made a small error, in thinking I had a team lined up, when in fact I was being asked to join a team for the Bristol race, not Edinburgh. As with last year, the SleepMonsters forum was my saviour, and I very quickly found Will and Paul. Both these guys seem pretty hardcore compared to me, so it's going to be a tough weekend no doubt.

If you're in Edinburgh, there is lots going on in Princes Street Gardens associated with the Rat Race, including clubs at night, and demonstrations from mountain bikers, BMXers, freerunners, etc during the day.
