THE NON-BLOG BLOG REPORT

June 21, 2024 by

One of my non-blog blog readers had something to say, which is nice. They liked the travel posts from England better than the current production. We ended with a promise to get together and share half-lies, speculation, and innuendo. I like the plan because I like good readers with a lively opinion.

AVOID THESE OBSTACLES FOR STREET SMART SAFETY

June 5, 2024 by

Avoid these stops if you’re having a good day and want it to continue. It’s probably just me, but safety seems like a good idea in London. The locals have their own list, I’m sure, but this is part of a day with a husband and wife on their own.
