The mistymornings.net blog
2011/04/06 - The mistymornings.net blog has just changed location so note the new URL http://mistymornings.net/blogs/mm/The idea behind this blog is to focus on cycle camping gear, including tents, bikes, bags, and other kit. It will supplement our Equipment pages providing updates and ideas rather than a snapshot or a review of gear. It may also be used to provide information about short trips that don't merit a travelogue. It should get updated sporadically with projects such as the 16 speed Brompton both during and outside the cycling season.
Stan's Grumpy Old Man blog
I get fed up of stupid design changes, or badly thought out ideas in software and hardware. The GOM blog is a place where I can vent when a company or developer wastes my time for no good reason.

We are moving have moved to Norway.
This blog contains our experiences expressed in stories and poems and charts our progress towards the goal of living in Norway. We'd hoped to be able to move in 2009 but things didn't quite gone the way we wanted.
In the August of 2010, our plans were realised and we moved to the small town of Gol in the middle of southern Norway. After considering starting a new blog we decided to alter the name slightly and continue using this blog. We are now charting our experiences living in Norway as newcomers to this land.
Sliced Slon
We've had a rusty old VW T2ab camper for years. It was bought new by my father in 1971 and much abused before I got my hands on it. The rest since then has been my responsibility.The last few years it sat in the garage rusting waiting for me to find the inclination to fix it. The bottom twenty centimetres were crumbly, and after a considerable amount of work I managed to turn back some of the ravages of time.
The reason I started fixing up the van was so that we could take it with us to Norway. The aim of the blog was to publish a few pictures each day I did something to the van. Now that I have managed to register the van in Norway, I still have much to do on Slon. Damae also added a nice T25 (T3) Syncro to our growing collection of older cars so I am going to be adding posts about her van to the blog too.
