I can’t believe its 2020. It barely seems five minutes since we were panicking about the millennium and whether the world would grind to a halt as our computers went back to 00.
Twenty years on and we’re still worrying about the state of the world but now it’s the environment and climate change that’s concerning us. Excuse the pun, but I think it’s going to be the hot topic this year.
We live in such a beautiful part of the world and it’s terrible that it’s at risk. I just love being able to get out and enjoy our woodlands and rivers, to hear birds like nightingales and cuckoos, and to see hedgehogs snuffling around my garden.
I know January 1 is just a number, but it’s really good to be able to put one year to rest and start a new one with fresh hope.
