Hi.  I’m Robert.  And this is 45 miles.

A strange title for a not so strange ‘blog’.   It’s probably time I googled that, as i have no idea why this is called a blog.

Anyway, over the next few weeks, months and maybe even years I am going to try to realise an ambition, all be it in a slightly left of field way to what I had originally envisaged.

Primarily this blog will act as a journal, somewhere to reflect on past and current events in my life, and  also act as a repository for hundreds of memories that I would like to pass on to my grandchildren and their grandchildren to come.

But I’m sure it will develop into more as I inject more and more of my being into it.   Where or how it will grow, I have no idea.   And I suppose that’s part of the fun.

If this is your first time here, well done for spotting this page amongst all the others.   My recommendation is now you go to the Blog page, and either choose a category that interests you or maybe look at the “Previous Posts” section and start at the earliest post, back in July 2016.   The choice is yours.

So, the engine is ticking over and there’s no refuelling.  Let’s get this show on the road.

Buckle up and enjoy the ride, or hop out and close the door behind you – it’s your choice!

Best wishes

Robert.
