The Bartlett Diaries on Narrowboat Hang Loose
Got up this morning – lovely winter crisp cold day – and decided to go for a walk – we were going to do a circular walk around Swarkestone but decided it may be too long for today as we needed to get back to do Sunday dinner. So – we decided to go and…
Today I managed to run 6.5 miles – this is the furthest I’ve run in 4 years – so I now have a 10k run back in the bag! I’ve been back into running since July and in the last few weeks been doing a couple of 5k runs a week and then managed a…
21st December 2017 Ok -so me and Mr B are now on it loving our Walks in the Peak District -climbing mountains and everything – haha actually we have all the gear and no idea – we got to the top of Mam Tor – definitely more by luck than judgement – then realised we…
6th January 2018 Paul found a 7 mile walk around Chatsworth, courtesy of sallymosley.co.uk so we decided that although the weather forecast was lots of rain, we would toddle off anyway – I was very keen to go out as I have a new pair of trousers and new gloves to try out! Walking through…
Last two Days of our Fabulous Holiday – 19th and 20th July 2018 and we’re going to visit the Amalfi Coast We had a really relaxing day by the pool at our beautiful Casale Giancesare – drank water all day – well, until we had wine in the evening – as we really haven’t been…

Peak District The forecast today was for light showers so we decided to go for a trek up Kinder in the Peak District – we were going to go camping but as there was rain forecast for Sunday we changed our mind! It was quite nice at the start of the walk – no rain….
17th – 18th July 2018 We had a beautiful chilled out day at two amazingly gorgeous villages called Castellabate and Santa Maria di Castellabate – I cannot explain how fabulous these villages are – so unspoilt and quiet – if you like to be away from it all then the Cilento Coast is the place…
16th July 2018 We really are having the best holiday – everywhere we’ve been has been amazing. The Cilento Coast is beautiful – and it’s so un-touristy! There’s so much to see – you could spend weeks here! Anyway, today we went to Salerno to swap our hire car and got a lovely new improved…
14th July 2018 Today was our final move and we go to another agriturismo called Casale Giancesare – found this in The Lonely Planet guide and it sounds amazing – this may be because they have their own vineyard!!! Seriously though – it does sound lovely and great reviews on Trip Advisor too. So we…
