It’s not technically “abandoned” (it just looks it) - it’s the home of a [...]]]> http://www.foreveramber.co.uk/2010/11/off-the-rails.html/feed 25 http://www.foreveramber.co.uk/2010/10/the-house-on-the-hill.html http://www.foreveramber.co.uk/2010/10/the-house-on-the-hill.html#comments Fri, 15 Oct 2010 10:42:47 +0000 Amber http://www.foreveramber.co.uk/?p=3715 “Ooh! A spooky gate! With an old creepy house ruined house behind it! I wonder what’s inside?” “Oh. It’s just Amber prancing around in a trench coat again. Right.” Well, yes. Yes, it is. This was Shoeper Shoe Challenge # 52, and it’s another example of my ongoing obsession with visiting abandoned buildings.

Well, they weren’t the only surprise this town had in store for me. In fact, just a few days later, I was out running again, and I ran all the way back to the Stone Age: (Note the [...]]]> http://www.foreveramber.co.uk/2010/10/queen-of-the-stone-age.html/feed 24 http://www.foreveramber.co.uk/2010/09/the-sheep-whisperer.html http://www.foreveramber.co.uk/2010/09/the-sheep-whisperer.html#comments Mon, 13 Sep 2010 10:45:39 +0000 Amber http://www.foreveramber.co.uk/?p=3245 So, a few days after my misadventure with the sheep, I headed back to the scene of the crime: only this time, I took reinforcements, in the shape of Terry and Rubin. By this point, I had found out a bit more about my woolly friends, and had discovered that I had not, as I’d [...]]]> http://www.foreveramber.co.uk/2010/09/the-sheep-whisperer.html/feed 13 http://www.foreveramber.co.uk/2010/09/the-comfort-of-strangers.html http://www.foreveramber.co.uk/2010/09/the-comfort-of-strangers.html#comments Fri, 10 Sep 2010 09:53:15 +0000 Amber http://www.foreveramber.co.uk/?p=3473 On Tuesday, Terry and I decided it was time to re-introduce Rubin to the outside world, by resuming his daily walk, which we’d temporarily halted after The Episode, thinking it might be best to try and keep him quiet for a couple of days (and ignoring the fact that Rubin was anything BUT “quiet” during [...]]]> http://www.foreveramber.co.uk/2010/09/the-comfort-of-strangers.html/feed 19 http://www.foreveramber.co.uk/2010/09/bedtime-in-the-forever-amber-household.html http://www.foreveramber.co.uk/2010/09/bedtime-in-the-forever-amber-household.html#comments Mon, 06 Sep 2010 08:59:46 +0000 Amber http://www.foreveramber.co.uk/?p=3454 So, on Friday night Terry and I are getting ready for bed. I come out of the bathroom, only to find Terry standing at the bedroom window, scanning the street, and sniffing the air like a bloodhound. “Someone in the street’s having a party,” he told me, with an anxious look in his eyes. “But [...]]]> http://www.foreveramber.co.uk/2010/09/bedtime-in-the-forever-amber-household.html/feed 25 http://www.foreveramber.co.uk/2010/09/taking-the-long-way-around.html http://www.foreveramber.co.uk/2010/09/taking-the-long-way-around.html#comments Wed, 01 Sep 2010 09:34:07 +0000 Amber http://www.foreveramber.co.uk/?p=3236 So, I decided to start running outdoors again. Yeah, I know: been there, done that, got the washed-out Nike t-shirt (actually it’s a tank top, but whatever) to prove it. If you’ve been reading this blog since God was a teenager, however, you’ll know that I don’t tend to have much luck with running outdoors.
