ReplyDeleteOh I don't know where to begin! I loved all your holiday blog posts - and seeing it all condensed in here it really does look like a really special time. I think - with those initials - you were sat in *my* seat on the plane though!
ReplyDeleteNow I have my own pedometer I can truly appreciate how many steps you walked! Was it in your Clark's shoes? You could have got yourself a job as a sole tester for them!
I've added you to the board now: http://pinterest.com/notesonpaper/my-month-in-numbers/
