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.

89. Visit the Callanish Stones




I have a long running argument with Dan, and sometimes Aidan, about whether an Iron Age hill fort is, as they claim, a fascinating detour on a walk or, as I insist, a rather underwhelming lump of soil.

OK, I'm wrong. I know I'm wrong. But I do enjoy winding them up.

One aspect of our past that is undeniably awe inspiring though is the stone circle, and this is the one I would most like to go and see.
Actually the Callinish stones are not one site but a series of over ten sites. They are located on the West coast of Lewis, which means a trip to the Outer Hebrides, and another holiday! Hooray!
