A sunny adventure and the launch of a summer series

Created by Martyn.Sibley | 08 May 2011 | 21:34:22

My personal routine has remained stable throughout my blogging career. I work Monday-Friday, spend summer weekends partying, winter months dreaming and annual leave days abroad in the sun. This weekend has seen a catch up with fellow baby milk boys Srin and Vik, with me trying to motivate myself back into my extra curricular activities. In contemplating where these projects are presently at, I have realised my disability awareness and ideas for solutions have evolved massively. It’s around one year since I put my neck out and arranged a meet up for my blog readers.

We’ve had Cali, we’ve had the long winter of concern, we’ve had work blogs, we’ve had a few mates visit London, and we’ve had Cyprus. You think the past 6 months have been busy, wait for my weekend that just was!

Cyprus - wheelchair friendly or bust

Another travel blog you say? I am thinking how I can make it different here. Well after my months of planning Cali and Vegas last year I was a little lazy. Good ol mum who has instilled the ‘get out and grab life’ attitude I have, booked it all. Originally planned for Egypt we changed to Cyprus with the revolution et al. I hadn’t been to either so was pretty cool with both. It is the annual mum, sister Claire, step dad Dave, Lisa (neighbours from when I was 5 to 18 years old) and crew. Last year was Mexico you may remember with the ash cloud and so forth.

Filming

Created by Trendsetters.team | 21 April 2011 | 13:34:43

Yesterday we had a fabulous day interviewing disabled people for the Trendsetters project and got some great video footage and quotes.

Our two interviewers were Bradley, aged 10, and Vanique, aged 12, and although they said they were nervous there was no sign of nerves and their interview techniques were spot on! Perhaps a TV career beckons….
