London's Hampstead: Ponds, Pubs And Poetry

In 1816, although only eight kilometers (five miles) from central London, Hampstead was enough of a remote, rural village for poet John Keats (1795-1821) to write the following about a visit there: "To one who has been long in city pent, 'Tis very sweet to look into the fair And open face of Heaven."

Balloon Flying in Thailand

Our trip to Thailand had been long awaited, originally planned for the winter of 94/95. My wife Karin had bought the maps and books and even packed; we were off.

The delay meant that we missed the relatively short window available for flying in Thailand. So it was rainy old England for most of the winter and a rethink of the plan for us.
