That was the year that was 2021.

Not too much to tell from 2021.
There was a two-day cycle along the Kennet & Avon canal on the hottest two days for the year, that went to plan on day one, but day two it didn't! (Long story - for another time).
We had some nice 'pet-minding' breaks away. One being a lovely week in Burwash in East Sussex. The remainder of the year was spent down in Hurley at our van. 

And FINALLY in November we escaped for some much appreciated sunshine and warmth on the island of Tenerife. Click this LINK for more on that.

2021: thank you and goodnight. Here's wishing and hoping the New Year is more like how we want it to be.

A brief review of some 2021 photos  >

GOING NOWHERE - TRIP 

Having not gone too far from anywhere since earlier this year (like most of you) we have fewer tales to tell. So we thought you might enjoy a trip around our fridge, via the many magnets we have collected over the years.

Positioned vaguely geographically - in as much as the world usually appears as landscape while our fridge is decidedly upright and portrait in format. 

Therefore Iceland is top left and New Zealand bottom right. See how many other countries you can spot: There are 21 different countries in total to visit - though actually 35 magnets, not all of them are countries. (Not easy to photograph, so apologies for the picture quality, but you get the idea) 😀  

And wishing you a Happy New Year
