CovBlog flees Coventry…

“I shoved my camping gear into my rucksack and caught a bus into the Peak District. I got off at Blackwell in the Peak, threw my tent up in the campsite there, and rushed off up the nearest hill. I spent the week reminding myself what it was like to not have to go and work in a square box for eight hours a day. [...] All well and good, but I was supposed to be finding a job? Well, I’m not going to bore people with details, but my new blog is called On Me Bike. I hope to see you there.”
