Easing myself back into blogging after taking a little break, here's an update on my 30 Things project:
Since we're at the half way point, I'd like to say I'm ticking off a further 10 items (!), but this month I can only tick off numbers 8 & 9. We had a fun family photo shoot and I've added 50 new names to my recently created Family Tree. Still, it's progress! Sorting out my storage and building a new desk area for the office are still "in progress"... I'm now skydiving with my little sis and little bro, so that's all booked up for the summer, and I've booked my tiger moth flight and London Eye ride for June. What else is happening? Well, I'm planning to visit my old school and write a children's story with the Infants and do a presentation on travel and being a writer with the Juniors. If that comes off (hopefully in June), I'll be able to tick off two more items - 15 & 22 - as I hope to self publish the story on Amazon and re-visit the school at a later date to show the kids what they created. At this point in time I am wondering whether I'm going to complete all this by November 6th. I do know I'm really excited about the next few months because some of the things I've wanted to do for ages and ages are packed into there. Guess I'll just keep my fingers and toes crossed and I look forward to updating you all next month! 1. DONE - Fly First Class long haul from anywhere to anywhere 2.

AuthorBlogging is an amazing concept so here I am giving it a whirl. You'll get words. You'll get pics. Sometimes a vid or two. You'll get tongue in cheek, the odd humble opinion and an honest insight into my travels and writing life. Maybe even a few gems along the way. I'll be musing on home turf as I see more and more of the UK and sharing my experiences further afield on holidays and adventurous trips across the globe. Archives
