1 Year back blogging

It has been just over a year since I restarted my blog from the beginning and it has been a good year in terms of views and reaching out on the world wide web especially with the weekly photo challenges becoming popular and despite a little hiatus midway through 2016, still had many comments.

Here I am picking 5 of my favourite blog posts from the last year or so.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Resilient

This is my first weekly challenge post for a while and the first of the year, the subject is Resilient.

Meaning behind the photo i post today, a full house at Elland Road as the winning days continue to return. In past seasons at this stage we would be in a position of dire mid table, but at this time we sit 5th. Good times.

Happy New Year. Its 2017!!

I would like to take the time first post of 2017 to wish you all a happy new year and all the best for the year to come.

Merry Christmas

I would like to take this moment to share my Christmas wishes to one and all. I would also like to personally thank all those who have read and followed my blog this year.

Thank You and MERRY CHRISTMAS
