My mate just got the photos from her wedding back. I love this one!

I’ve just been reminder that was a 3 year old I used to cry hysterically when this came on the screen:

It’s listening to people talk about running.

And so, we’re back aboard Serenissima. Fire lit, wine chilling.
November 2, 2025 at 6:00 PM
Wishing I was getting to do this journey again today, but alas not: I am waking up in Birmingham.
