OK, so...

As is probably common for featherweight bloggers, our 2015 UK trip blog dissolved into the dark swamp of Real Life distractions and uncertainties about the way forward. No excuses.

So we are left with two daunting issues - the first being that the 2015 UK trip is fading from memory (well, the little day to day stuff that we like to include), and the second being that we've actually gone BACK to the UK since then, for a whole other two week adventure.

So do we struggle through 2015 and start up 2016? Do them both in a maddeningly random, chronologically entangled manner, just do 2016? Give up completely?

We'll land on one square or another shortly. We will. Honest.  Too much good stuff from both to walk away...so there, we've already dispensed with the 'Give up completely' option. Progress.

Shame on me

...for slacking off the blog thing.

No, I didn't join the Twitter thing.

No, I wasn't in mourning over Michael.

Just distracted.
