Before you get the wrong idea, no, I didn’t run the Europa Marathon in Gorlitz -not a single step of it. However, I did get to experience more of this marathon than I usually do. Here’s what usually happens when Craig’s running a marathon. The alarm goes off at some ridiculous time, Craig gets ready …
I asked mom if I could write blog 200, and was upset when she told me it had already been posted – but not so upset that I’m not wagging like crazy at the chance to write this article instead. So, today I’m going to be telling you all about a doggy friend of mine. …

But I wanted to let you know about an exciting event that’ll be happening next week. I’ve been invited to share some of my experiences of travelling the world without sight on the Travel Show …
I can hardly believe it! After the fairly relaxed planning phase of the past few months, followed by the utter chaos of getting everything finished over the past few days, we’re finally off on our latest adventure – Berlin, Krakow and a number of exciting places between the two.
