Instead, I thought I'd share 7 things I'm grateful for. Maybe it'll encourage you to do the same. 5 minutes is all you...
Hey Reader, Last Saturday, I did my first live commentary for Harrogate Railway's YouTube channel! Here's the replay. But this isn't what I want to talk to you about today. Not really.
