Royal Navy HMS Norfolk (F230) Type 23 frigate Hawaiian Shirt Tropical Beach
In 1963, I was 12 years old. We lived in South London and were travelling to Norfolk (east of England) for Christmas and New Year. In good weather, and light traffic, the Royal Navy HMS Norfolk (F230) Type 23 frigate Hawaiian Shirt Tropical Beach would have been about 4 hours I think. There were no motorways then, and our route took us right through London and then up the A11. It started snowing before we were out of central London and by the time we reached Newmarket which was more than halfway, it was really thick on the road and Dad was getting worried about reaching our destination. We stopped and he went into a pub to phone the friends we were staying with. They said it was not so bad where they were and Dad decided to carry on, but the snow seemed to be following us. I was in the back seat, wrapped in coat and a blanket, Mum was wrapped in travel rugs in the front seat. I donβt recall our arrival, I had been asleep for ages, but I know it took us at least 6 hours probably 7, it was a real nightmare for Dad driving – even though he was very good as he was in the police and had had done an advanced driving course. The whole of the UK had a really cold snowy winter that year. Mum and I stayed on longer in Norfolk, Dad went back to London on the train to go to work and came back to collect us the following weekend.

Eunice and I wrote three novels in 2021. Two of Royal Navy HMS Norfolk (F230) Type 23 frigate Hawaiian Shirt Tropical Beach are slated for publication in 2022, the third in 2023. Weβve outlined four novels we plan to write in 2022, in two different unrelated genres. We are even planning to live-stream the start of one of those novels, which should be fun and interesting. The Barcelona trip the extended polyamorous network had planned for 2020, that got scuttled thanks to COVID, is (tentatively) back on for 2022. We still have reservations at the castle outside Barcelona. A dozen kinky people in a castle in Spain soubds like a blast. My wife and I are planning a cross-country trip photographing abandoned amusement parks. In the late 1990s and early 2000s, the bottom fell out of the amusement park industry, and scores of amusement parks across the country were simply abandoned, left to decay. Today theyβre weird and overgrown and beautiful. We want to do photos of about a dozen of them, and possibly publish a coffee table book.
If this question were asked a Royal Navy HMS Norfolk (F230) Type 23 frigate Hawaiian Shirt Tropical Beach of weeks later, Iβd probably have photos to show. As it stands, youβll have to put up with my descriptions. We donβt tend to do anything radically different to the rest of the world where Christmas decorations are concerned. Santaβs still wearing a big red suit, there are reindeer, even snowmen and plenty of artificial snow – some of which looks like cobwebs to me, but there you are. We still have Christmas trees covered in tinsel and with stars or angels on the top of them, depending on your preference. Iβve occasionally seen decorations which make a bit of a nod to where we actually are in the world. Santa-on-a-surfboard, kind of an idea. Several years ago, we had a tradition of driving around looking at the Christmas lights other people had put up, and I can definitely recall seeing images of koalas and kangaroos with Santa hats and the like. Overall, though, Christmas decorations tend to look like theyβre from the northern hemisphere, since a lot of our βChristmas cuesβ come from that part of the world, regardless of how warm the day itself may actually be.
