Not so much a blog as a progress of record. The Glorious Decade is my version of those 'things to do before...' lists that we all make. The aim is to complete this list before the 31st of December 2019.

Plenty of time...

I have split the list into ten sections:

1. Travel and Holidays
2. Nature and the Countryside
3. Adventures/ Big Days Out
4. Food and Drink
5. Life
6. Things to Make and Do
7. Literature
8. Arts and Culture
9. Britain
10. The Really Quite Difficult

If you have any suggestions or want to debate or celebrate any of my choices. If you have done some of them and want to offer help or advice. Drop me a comment or two in the comment boxes.

Here are the 100 targets for The Glorious Decade.

64. The Complete Sandman

I read Neil Gaiman's Sandman comics when I live in Brighton. I read it in fits and starts, buying the collected volumes when price and funds allowed. Although, in their original published form of separate comics, they were intended to be read one at a time, I would like to read the full body of work in one go to better enjoy the interweaving of stories and character.

A real treat of a day or two, just me, a big pile of Sandman volumes, some suitable music (Tom Waits' Dead and Lovely springs to mind, maybe some of the more maudlin Louis Armstrong, perhaps some Schnittke) a few canapés (of a nicely eccentric bent) and a coffee or two.
