My husband is one of those alarming adventure types. He’s always into some kind of action sport – either mountain biking, snowboarding, surfing, offroad motorbiking or paragliding.

I remember him leaping off a steep cliff on a paraglider some years ago. It was his first time, and he’d had no training that I could see. After about 30 minutes he yelled down to a friend as he circled above the cliff top – “So how do I land?”

You get used to it gradually. As well as the occasional hospital visits for broken fingers, stitches, torn ligaments, and a range of other – thankfully – minor injuries.

The one thing about these trips is that he gets to go to all sorts of places off the beaten track that most of us never get to see. On a recent offroad motorbike trip to the Negev, he came back with these beautiful pictures.

Makes me almost wish I’d gone with him… yeh right.
