Hello!
Welcome weary internet traveller, and thankyou for arriving at my little website. Why don't you relax and rest your weary mouse hand for a moment? Perhaps have a nice cup of tea!
I am Mark Alldridge, and that's me on a canal boat, in the bottom of the second deepest canal lock in England, sometime back in 2006.
Anyway, thank you for stopping by. I originally had a website back in 1999 (www.TasteTheRain.com) but found the whole process of creating and maintaining one, rather arduous. Web hosting was just rubbish back then. Adverts were unavoidable on your pages and I was not much good at HTML coding. But at the end of 2012, I discovered Weebly's website creator and it's brilliant! I feel renewed. So here I am doing it all again!
What's this site all about? Well it's just me musing and airing my thoughts on various subjects that I happen to find interesting. (What more can I do than that?) If you also happen to find it interesting, then that pleases me!
Click on a topic below, or browse using the buttons at the top to read more. Do feel free to drop me a note, particularly if you disagree with something I have written. I love a good debate! If you spot any mistakes, do also let me know, as I hate inaccuracies and inconsistencies! Email me at 'Mark@MarkAlldridge.co.uk' or use my contact page.
Just for your info, almost every image on this site was either taken by me, or came out of my massive photos collection. I hate using stock images! Also, every image is enlargeable; just click on any image to view full size.
Cheers!
