It’s New Year’s Eve 2012 so a great time to take stock, particularly as outside the wind has picked up and the never ending rain lashes against the study window. What will 2013 bring? Will we ever have a summer again, will flooding now be the norm, can the country ever pick itself up again following the HUGE 2012 year of partying to a Royal Wedding, Queen’s Jubilee, Olympics and Paralympics. The magic of Spring never fails to revitalise the senses, I have no fear, rock on 2013. Mother Nature release the Goddess of Spring from your warm embrace and let us start all over again!

Happy New Year everyone!
