Hello there Beastie friends! I'm working on some new monster projects which need to remain a closely-guarded secret for the moment... So I thought we'd switch up the posting schedule from the last couple of weeks. Let's catch up with Explorer Beastie's progress through Germany... And as you can perhaps tell from the unusual title, … Continue reading Riverboats, Railways and Falling Elephants
Happy Friday, everyone! And with the high temperatures continuing, and still no sign of rain for us here in the Emerald Isle, a cooling dip in the sea might be just what we need... So isn't it lucky that when we left Explorer Beastie last week, he was just about to venture inside Düsseldorf's Aquazoo? … Continue reading Beasties of the Deep!
Hello everybody! It's veeeery nearly the weekend... And between the scorching weather and the lovely time I've just spent picking out pictures to use in this post, it really does feel a lot like I'm still on holiday! Hopefully a little of that will radiate out from your screen as you read... Now, let's catch … Continue reading Düsseldorf Days – A Walk in the Park!
Hey there everybody! We're baaaaaaack! And what a couple of weeks it's been... Beasties have been popping up just about everywhere!

First up, Paddy and Plunkett … Continue reading Beasties, Beasties… Everywhere!
I might have mentioned it already (once or twice) but May has been a SUPER-busy month here at Beastie Towers! With multiple commissions on the go, our stint at Woollinn last week, and a bit of extra time spent at our local yarn shop, it's a miracle I've had time for anything else! But May … Continue reading The End of Mad May!
Explorer Beastie's been a bit quiet lately, hasn't he? But he always likes to take advantage of the post-Christmas lull to do a spot of out-of-town adventuring, and last week found both of us up in Donegal again, treading a slightly different path from the one we took this time last year. Actually, this breaking … Continue reading Back to the Wild North West!
It's time to hit the road with Explorer Beastie again! Last time the pair of us were in Donegal (the most north-westerly county in Ireland) we chose to head to its northernmost point. This time around, we decided to see how far west we could go before we fell into the sea. Since we were … Continue reading The Wild West Coast
Oh wow, what a week it's been! Isn't it funny how life can be so quiet for a while, and then a whole bunch of things happen all at once? So, although the original purpose of this post was just to share the results of my Beastie calendar poll, I'll get around to that in … Continue reading Good Things Come in Threes…
It's been a while since Explorer Beastie got out anywhere, hasn't it? So, when we were offered the chance to get away for a day and see The Gobbins Cliff Path in beautiful Co. Antrim, we were both pretty excited! We'd heard a lot about this place from other people... and from other Beasties, too. … Continue reading Cliff Climbs and Fun Times
