We are please to say that Walmsley have opened a new office in Theale to compliment their current office in Caversham Reading Kent.  Here are a few words from Simon Walmsley, our oldest customer who we began working with in about 1998.

‘Opening a new office requires considerable preparation and foresight. There is always something that is behind and with us it was the company internet site. Fortunately Frank, who had just finished our newest version sprang into life and implemented the changes and new search facilities within 24 hours of instruction. Thanks to him all was uploaded on line the same day as the shop front signs. Great timing Frank and thanks’

So if you need to buy, sell or let property in Theale, now you can.

#15 Peaks #Welsh 3000s challenge this weekend for charity mate. Thank you to all who have helped so far http://a2a.me/JZd via @AddToAny

This time tomorrow I will be on top of Snowden setting up camp.  Then on Saturday at day break we will be off to do the other 14 peaks in the 15 Peaks Challenge.  Wish me luck, it is not too late to sponsor me.

 I have not had much time to BLOG with doing several training weekends on the mountains and three days a week at the gym.  The walk is taking place this weekend, we climb Snowden on Friday the 19th, sleep at the summit and then start off at day break on Saturday,  to cover another 14 peaks all over 3000 feet high, (hopefully) before dark.

From Thursday to Saturday last week, I stayed in Breacon with my family, my good friend Nigel and his two sons, and Ted and Alice Waldron.  Ted had kindly offered to give me a few pointers for the Snowden 15 Peaks Challenge by taking me on a 20km hill walk.

We had a great time camping, real open fires at night, lovely farm with ponds and ducks.  The newest member of the family, BEN the dog had great fun.

Scout Camp May 2009 Training #15 Peaks Challenge – Welsh 3000s – Walk for #Cancer Research http://a2a.me/6CF via @AddToAny

Just got back from a Scout Camp and training exercise.  Walked from Brierley Hill to Kinver on Friday night and set up camp just as it was getting dark.  Had a great Night out under the stars with Nigel, Ian and the scouts.

Next day, packed up and hiked to the camp near Kidderminster Safari Park, going zig zag routs cross country to build up the miles.  I think we did about 16 miles on this walk.  It was tough going at times as the path would suddenly change from stiles and rough pathways, to barb wire, electric fences and 6ft nettles where the farmer had forgotten about the public footpath rules so his animals could graze and his spuds could grow I guess.

Got a few injuries when an old rusted through fence collapsed on me, after I had helped a few others over.  Several puncture wounds (barbed wire) later and with aching ribs from the landing, I am OK, but a little wiser and less trusting of ancient gates.

Today the scouts came back by bike to the HQ at Blakedown and I came back with Justine and the boys who picked me up to give them a chance to meet all the scouts.

Great weekend so CHEERS guys, really a great bunch of friendly and helpful kids, and leaders.

You can still sponsor my SNOWDEN WALK, details below…

I am sorry I have not had time to write a blog for some days.  As you will see we have been busy here trying to get the new Walmsley Web Site up and running and as Google friendly as possible.  The site is number one on page one for search Phrases like “Estate agents in Caversham”, after only one week on line.  We are trying to promote the wider geographical area with phrases like Estate Agents Reading”, now that we have our foot in the door, so to speak.

I have also been doing my thrice weekly training with Richard, and starting to set up some sort of sponsorship so that we can raise as much as possible for Cancer Research UK when I do the Snowden 15 Peaks challenge in June.

I have also been doing some writing of my own which has had to take president over the blog as when it comes to you, it is best to get it down on paper as quick as possible.

I will be adding some more blogs over the next few days.  I want to do some pieces about how I feel about the whole MP claiming expenses thing that is going on right now, but to be honest I am still in shock as to how far and how many of them have become corrupt.  And also by their self fulfilling belief that they have done nothing wrong?  I wish I had their money to throw around on such ridiculous extravagance in these times of strife.  Then again, if you think about it, we all have that kind of money, it is just that they are spending it for us rather than letting us spend it our selves on our families and businesses.

Richard has been very kindly giving up his mornings three days a week to do training sessions with me in his gym.  I ache all over, which he says is a good thing, but I am really enjoying it and I am very, very grateful to him for the time he is putting in and the equipment he lets me use. Cheers again.

I start the day by walking the kids to school (about a mile), and then back again.  Then I walk to Richards house in Wordsley (about two miles), and begin the workout which lasts about an hour and a half (I think it is supposed to last an hour?), doing bench work, bike and all manner of other stuff that Richard has all the names for but I don’t have a clue, yet!  Then I walk back home and have a massive sandwich, which is probably wrong, but I am always starving by then.

I follow this with the two mile round trip back to the school and do a bit of work on my own bike and weight before bed.  I like the exercise and the company, and though we have only done two days of these sessions so far, I really feel it is helping more than anything I could achieve without Richards input, patience and time.
