Rewind 2019

During August I am taking a rest from writing new blog posts.  Instead I am taking you back to blog posts I have written over the years.  Although I actually started the blog in 2008, I didn't really get going until 2011.

In this post I'll take you back to 2019.  I wrote 103 posts that year.

This post This is my life celebrates my 70th birthday.

Thanks for taking this journey with me through the celebration of my blog.  I hope you have enjoyed it.

Thanks to everyone who reads my blog.  I really appreciate your company.  An extra sepcial thanks who take the time to comment.

Today's post is a really interesting take on being a tourist: Have you tried being a tourist in your own city.

In fact Birmingham is the city next to the town I live in.  Perhaps I should try this again but using Solihull.

And the second post is from May 2012 about an anniversary card in Going Postal.
