Another year almost ended and the optimism of looking forwards to a new one.

Reflections on 2014.
On a personal level as that's all that effect's me are that is was a good year. I managed a visit to see Jenny,the family are doing OK and we had pretty much a storm free year for a change. I had a couple of issues with smashing my ankle and the continuing deterioration of my back but I can handle that.

Things to look forward to with hope in the new year.
I new member of the family if Gemma's pregnancy is a success,another visit to see Jenny with any luck and I storm free year,not very big hopes in the grand scheme of things but they all help life pass more pleasantly. I gave up all hope of a wish for world peace years ago,why wish for the impossible?

I hope the new year treats you all well, My toast tonight will be the same as always. “To absent friends and loved ones” Take care people
