Great fun this evening at my first @dodgers game! Giving everything that #losangeles and the #usa has to offer a try! Great win for the #dodgers! Tried the food, got some merch, bought a drink and tried to say out of the sun! It was a hot one out there! Only Downside was taking an hour to get out of the stadium! What an enjoyable night though!

Join me at the @f1exhibition @excellondon! What a great couple of hours this was exploring @f1 history. Even as a self confessed F1 geek there was still lots to see and do. If you’re just a casual fan there is a lot of facts and figures that will give you more of an understanding about the sport. Lots to like from the cars, bits of history and the Grosjean Hass which is shown at the end of the exhibition. Personal headsets allow you to listen to clips in your own time or speed. Also numbers are limited which never made the whole time feel cramped when exploring. Make sure you catch it until the end of December!

So PLASA show on Sunday and Monday will be my last days in the UK for a little while….
I’m excited to announce, that from Thursday 5th September, I will be working out of our global HQ in Los Angeles until the end of December 2024, working on a number of different projects for the business. This will allow me to spend time with our wider group Senior Leadership on the development of the Martin brand globally along with other things. Will be a great opportunity for me personally and professionally. 
I will be at PLASA Sunday/Monday so looking forward to catching up with many EMEA customers before I head off. And of course if you find yourself in LA please do let me know as it would be great to catch up!

A brilliant afternoon @f1exhibition! As a @f1 geek the exhibition had a mix of everything. From the history from the 1950’s right through to the modern day stuff. And even as someone who knows the sport so well there was stuff I learnt as well! It was so beautifully done and had some really cool exhibits. I think as a first time fan or certainly one from the #drivetosurvive generation you would learn so much about the sport as well. It’s  on till December @excellondon so make sure you get your tickets!

What an incredible day at the Silverstone Festival! The passion for cars and motorsport was absolutely unmatched. From the roar of the engines to the wide range of classic cars there was just so much to see. The atmosphere was electric, with fans from all over coming together to celebrate the love of racing. The classic car displays, live music, and amazing food made it an unforgettable experience. Whether you’re a die-hard motorsport fan or just here for the vibes, the @silverstonefestival never disappoints!

This weekend @circuit_spa_francorchamps @f1 Grand Prix weekend was nothing short of spectacular (even if I did get soaked!! A proper #bucketlist trip ticked off! The iconic #SpaFrancorchamps circuit delivered thrilling action and unforgettable moments. Fans were treated to incredible racing under changing weather conditions, with drivers pushing the limits on this challenging track. The atmosphere was electric, with passionate fans cheering on their favorite teams and drivers. #georgerussell was unlucky to not win the race after his disqualification but the race was unpredictable and we didn’t know where anyone was going finish. The perfect motorraceThe Spa Grand Prix once again proved why it’s one of the best races on the calendar.

I’m back…

I’m back…

I'm back...

I'm back.

I wrote a post about blogging in COVD times back in early 2021. I wasn't really sure where life was going and taking me. Jo and I were getting married. Life was super busy (and that's not changed at ALL) and I think that I was just suffering from blogging burn out. I wasn't really enjoying working on this site any more and I was finding it a little bit of a chore.

 

So what's changed....

Well Jo and I have got married! We've got a beautiful little furry friend now called Max who joined us July 2021. My work continues now to go from strength to strength. I'm probably travelling more internationally than I've ever done. I'm rapidly heading towards my "mid 40's" which is scary to say the least...

However in the last few months and weeks I've been thinking a lot about the blog. I never said that I would be stopping for good, but I was feeling that I didn't know where to move it forward. But recently thanks to my job taking me to some amazing places, and also having some really incredible and lucky opportunities I've realised that I would like to write about these.

Myself and Jo are looking to start a family - and I know there are experiences that I've been through that I would like to share with my kids or things that I would like to look back on and remember. Some of those things are of course private and will stay that way but there are other things and events that I've done that I know others would be interested in.

What have I been upto?

Well I talked about it in my 2021 goals post that we were hoping for the Monaco Grand Prix. We sadly didn't make that in 2021, but we did make it in 2022. In 2023 we also made it to Daytona 500, a trip up PCH on the West coast of the USA. I hope that I'll have time to put some "reflective" posts up about those - as these were truly amazing trips.

Jo and I have been lucky to travel the world as well for work, and as I write I've come back from the USA a couple of weeks back (and there is a post coming on the back of that) and in the next few weeks I've got trips to Denmark, Dubai, Holland and the USA in the diary. I'm sure there will be others as well that will come back.

Max

The future

I can't and won't at the moment make a commitment to a post a week and loads and loads of content but I also know that I want to be putting things out there again and I'm excited by that. I'll try and do those "catch" up posts and I'll also be looking to highlight some of the other things that I'm involved in take part in all things that shape and guide my life.

I hope those who've read my posts in the past will enjoy what's going to come and I'm looking forward to this journey again.

Ben
