Re-generation…

Yesterday was pure magic. A wonderful day out at the Buxton exhibition where I met Michael (of Chandwell) in person after virtual conversation surrounding his contribution to the last Ribbons. We enjoyed looking at models for a few hours before escaping to the pub and having some energetic conversation…

Sprinters rest at Buxton. What an end to my journey, my favourite unit, windows open, charging uphill to the spa town terminus. Magic!

It’s the sort of day that goes beyond restorative benefits, I feel re-generated. 

Meeting Michael, sharing and trading stories, ideas, energy I felt, for the first time for a long time that I’d found someone who gets what I do, how I do it and most importantly why I do too… Talking about this reminded me of what I can be proud of and what I still want to achieve. Things easily forgotten and sometimes difficult  to rekindle.

Beyond that, I travelled by train - always a good experience for my well-being - and caught up with a few good friends, met some customers, blog followers and generally felt very fulfilled, mind that could have just been the pub afterwards… 

If you’ve not come across Michael before I warmly recommend his YouTube channel, and his wonderful article in the second Ribbons.

Until next time, more soon…

What of the show? I’ll attach a few photos of things I enjoyed or that caught my eye, but if you want a full write up this isn’t it!
