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.

80. Festival


It has been over ten years since I last went to a festival, and while I could never go back to Reading and have never fancied the BBC Glastonbury festival, there are other, more interesting festivals to explore.
It would be interesting to go to a festival with more than twenty pounds in my pocket. It would be interesting to be able to not carry everything there in an army sack.
As good as the line-up usually is at All Tomorrows Parties, and as much as like the chalet idea, it will have to be an outdoor festival. It isn't really the same indoors. I will have to go with people who love music - I have bad memories of being with a crowd with more interest in drinking than checking out new bands. The longer I leave it, the more 'family friendly' the event will have to be. That could be a good thing mind you. A relaxed atmosphere, a summery atmosphere, that could be nice.
