did a couple of hours on the stables, in the snow (SHOCK!).

i thought a siesta would be a good idea after lunch.

my brother and nina thought a walk round the reservoir would be a good (cold) idea.

ardingly reservoir

ardingly reservoir


the site of many haywards heath sixth form shenanigans.

many good times spent here.
now my brother and nina live just up the road.

back in the day, we used to bunk the fence at night and watch the water cascade down this 60ft concrete funnel.
we'd stand on the balcony right over the top of the hole.
it was quite surreal.

the walkway out to it now has a gate covered in barbed wire.
and the carpark that we used to do synchronised hand brake turns in shuts at 7pm.

bloody health and safety overkill.

distant memory props to giles, geoff, and john boy.
