Weekly Vlog 4

8th March 2018 by Sarah Leave a Comment

Well, would you look at that, it is weekly vlog 4 time! Last week was a funny one with a flurry of winter weather coming in with the “Beast from the East”.  It didn’t stop me from getting outside for my reverse commute though, and actually turned out to be absolutely beautiful.  Oh yeah, remember those canal shoes from last week? They feature again!

This week I was joined by the “Beast from the East” and “Storm Emma” which made for some very pretty walks along the canal into town. Frozen canals are very fun and interesting too.

Remember the canal shoes from last week’s vlog? They feature again this time…twice!! As well as work, I had to take one of my kitties to the vets because he was under the weather and went to collect my glasses which Parcel Force (or should I say Parcel Farce!) RAN OVER!!!! So I am still without new glasses – BOO!

I remember why online shopping is so good, do some walking and people watching at the Trafford Centre and make lots of delicious food to top up the winter bodies. All in all, it has been a good week. (especially now that Tibby is feeling a bit better too, poor old boy!) I’m looking forward to getting all my bits out the way this week as we’re off for an adventure in London this weekend! *phew*

Hello wanderer!

Manchester based outdoor and travel writer UK

I’m a writer and urban explorer who’s written for Lonely Planet (England and Experience England). The Urban Wanderer is where I share slow travel, city walks, food, cats, and the everyday adventures found close to home. I believe the outdoors isn’t only in the countryside — it’s in the streets, parks, corners and communities we live in.

Come wander with me, one small discovery at a time.
