Caught my first American football game with the @rams , and wow—what an experience that was! The stadium was buzzing, with energy that I wasn’t expecting. Some 80,000 fans chanting and enjoying the game. This wasn’t just a game; it was a full-on experience that many fans spend hours enjoying. You can see why it’s such a popular sport over here. Watching football on TV doesn’t come close to being there live. Now, I totally get why they call it game day magic. Safe to say, it was a unique experience for sure!! 💙💛

Had a bit of a wander around #santamonica today. It’s my last Sunday here for a couple of weeks as I’m heading back to the UK for a couple of weeks! Since arriving here about 2 months ago I’ve properly fallen for this place! Going to miss it when I leave!

Had an amazing time touring the @dodgers Dodger Stadium today! 🏟️⚾️ Got to walk on the edge of the field, check out the dugout, and see all the behind-the-scenes action! The history, the views, the Dodgers’ legacy—everything was unforgettable. 💙✨ Definitely a must-do for any fan!

Realised that I missed the one month anniversary of being here in #losangeles. Some days it feels like I have been here months and months. Other days feels like I have only been here a week. It’s been a lot of hard work with meetings most day from 6am (some 5.30) right through to 6/7pm. Lots to take in, lots to work on, and lots to drive forward. Of course though I have tried to do a lot of things along side that to make the time here enjoyable at evenings and weekends. Having been to a couple of @dodgers games, a @lafc game, the @petersenmuseum, @indycar as well as a bit closer to home the @santamonicapier. I have been made to feel so welcome by colleagues and friends. Got a few days in Vegas coming up, some @nascar and then hopefully will catch @lakers game. It’s been an utterly amazing experience being here and just grateful to be given the opportunity by my company to do this, even for a couple of months…

Second part of my weekend was @nashvillesuperspeedway for the @indycar championship final which saw @alexpalou crowned a 3 time champion in the series. Having also done the @indianapolismotorspeedway #indy500 this year it was great to see another race! Also got myself paddock pass and it’s such good value to be able to get up close to all the teams, cars and drivers. #indycar for me really is the best value and exciting racing on the planet!

36 hours in Nashville. Was meant to watching the baseball @nashvillesounds but sadly the weather got the better of the match. Then onto the @nashvillesuperspeedway on the Sunday for a full on day of @indycar racing and to see the end of the season! So tired at the end of the busy weekend but was great weekend away!

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
