Moving On

Time To Move On

Hi folks.

Most of you will already know that ‘Gleda’ is for sale. It’s going to take a while for everything to pan out. Much is beyond our control.

But life doesn’t stop. The decision is made, it’s time to move on.

This will be the last blogpost I make on this site.

I wrote the first on September 10th 2006. Near as damn it 12 years ago.

This will be blog post No 1,169.

That’s a long time. That’s a lot of words.

Those of you that have followed my journey know that I’ve shared everything along the way. Sometimes I’ve overshared, I know. Many things changed as we went along, but one thing stayed rock solid.

Every time I stumbled. Every time I fell. Every time I thought I couldn’t go on. You were there for me.

For that, you have my eternal thanks.

So, as a new journey commences, I hope you’ll stick with me. I need you to stick with me.

I’ve just written blog post No 1 over at neilhawkesford.com

I hope you’ll follow me there.

Still Waiting On The Sun

The blue sky’s still there. I know it is. It’s just hidden, that’s all. What is it they say about the weather suiting the mood? Or is it the mood suiting the weather? Either way, right...

2018 – Reboot

Gail and I got back to ‘Gleda’ Saturday evening. Our friends Garry and June picked us up from Murcia airport and ran us to Lidl so that we could get some provisions. Thanks guys. All was...
