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.

79. Portmeirion




The Prisoner is still amongst the very finest things to have appeared on television. If you are unfamiliar with it do yourself a favour and forget about the remake - go here and buy yourself a treat.
The series was filmed in Portmeirion is in essence a Mediterranean-Italian village resort but in North Wales. I have been before but there was one problem with it. The tourists. I know, I know, I was a tourist too, but it was the number of them not what they were doing. I would like to stay there for a night or two, to wake up at six in the morning and walk around a bit. Take it all in before the people turn up.
