2017 A review of my year
2017 has been a tough year, filled with highs and lows. I have loved and lost, celbrated aniversaries and travelled a little, so its time in the closeing days of this year to ponder a few events.
Ruth broke up with me on or around the 13th/14th of Febuary, and this still feels crap!
Me and Lindsay celebrated two years together
I visited London twice, once with Ruth, once to see Ross and Amber. I visited the Sceince Museum, Tower Bridge, The V & A Museum, Mail Rail, London Transport Museum. I saw three West End show, Half a Sixpence, Wicked and 42nd Street. I found a few places to drink tea and eat ice cream in London.
I visited Edinburgh to see Rachel and Jenny. Taking in teahouses and the Royal Mile. I visited the Elephant House, where Harry Potter was thought up.
I discovered Alnwick, and finally visited Barter Books. I had tea at Dirty Bottles, and discovered the legend.
I travelled on the Heatherslaw Light Railway and visited a water mill.
I drove Kaite and Owl at the Kirklees Light Railway. I worked at North Bay Railway again.
I bought a new caravan and said goodbye to my old one.
I found teahouses and shared tea and cake with many of my friends.
I visited Beamish and a few other places.
I have volunteered for the DRPS.
I have done two more Jabberwocky Market festivals and made some amazing memories.
I have celebrated with freinds and cried. Some projects have failed and others have been amazing,
Sadly I feel I leave 2017, feeling like we live in a less kind, and less friendly world. A world where there is to much hate.
So here is to 2018 lets see what you hold, may the world be a kinder place.
