Dave's View

                                                     This is a photo I took while walking on a Yorkshire moor
                                                              


Hello friends, I hope this Friday evening finds you well. 


Some of you may not know that I'm a keen traveller. I don't tend to go too far, often just up the road or down to the park, but as my Uncle Jonathan used to say: 'It doesn't matter where you end up, if the journey was worth the ride'. He was only a ferry boat captain for a short time.


I've been talking to Rich a lot this week, and I asked him if I could write on this blog about my travels, perhaps share some photos and some of my thoughts with you. He said that I could, which was very nice of him, so I would like to formally announce the arrival of a new regular feature to this blog....


                                      DAVE'S VIEW!


I used the CapsLock there just to add impact to the title really. Then I put it in bold and popped an exclamation mark at the end - its really amazing how fonts can help you express yourself.


Dave's View this week is about things that I found I am surprised by. Or perhaps, sometimes, things I am surprised to find that I am surprised by. Here's a short list I made on one of my journeys:




1     Your own home is always at least a degree warmer than anyone else's
2     Pancakes take a lot of tidying up after - possibly more so than any other meal
3     The last train of the day has its own unique taste
4     I am surprised that despite it being there my whole life, I still feel excited when I look up at the sky    
       (see above photo - its really a visual aid to help illustrate my point)


That's it for Dave's View this week. If there's something you'd like to add to the list, then please reply below, and I'll add it to my next one. Also, you could maybe share this blog with your friends and see if we're  surprised by the same things. That would be exciting to know.

See you soon.

Dave
