Yes, I'm sure that my hobbies and my passion for them might be of interest to a younger generation - but will the glorification of alcahol abuse be the right message to accompany such tales? I am really getting into this project, my perspective is changing as I delve deeper into my past. I'm not even sure now, that my obsession with the great outdoors has played such a key role - factory life seems to keep cropping up in my recollections. Who knows where this exercise will lead?<br />Hoping that you and Wendy are well? Send Bev a message on Facebook - we saw a nice photo of you, Gill and Auntie Gladys a few days back - all the best - DylDylan Wrathallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01285181139467170047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7338589224051075532.post-30123194395919084882014-07-24T07:49:20.676+01:002014-07-24T07:49:20.676+01:00I have always believed you could write a good book...I have always believed you could write a good book. I can’t think of a better way to keep the interests of your hobbies alive and even maybe introduce the young uns to pursue.

I'm still unsure - the content would be one of stupidity, disrepect and anarchy - plus alcohol abuse! Although I can't change the past, I don't feel if that it's the legacy which I wish to pass on?<br />I'm not Luke Jennings - what I see is what I will write! Glossing over periods when "I should have known better" isn't in the mix. The death of Les Dudley still hangs heavily upon my life - I should have made so much more effort to help him.<br />Many thanks for making the effort to comment - DylDylan Wrathallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01285181139467170047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7338589224051075532.post-85728508335478932842014-07-19T20:36:00.465+01:002014-07-19T20:36:00.465+01:00Go for it Dylan!

Mapledurham?<br />Re the book: I sometimes wonder whether it should be compulsory to get it all down for posterity - for the kids and grandchildren, if for no other reason... It would be like the ultimate retrospective blog!Gavin Haighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17242398421328525578noreply@blogger.com
