Week 4 of the Stuff I Love: Top Ten Edition promoted by
dreamersdare This week's theme is Relationships in our media, but as it doesn't particularly appeal, I've gone for general stuff I love, again in no particular order.
1. Reading physical books
I do like an actual book I can hold in my hands, and this year I'm probably going to consume around 80 of them.

2. My Library
And to that end, I love my local library and despite the above picture of my books for the year, about half the books I read will be from the library.

3. Audiobooks
Because there are times when physical books don't work, so when I'm doing chores, driving or crafting I like a good audiobook.
4. BBC Sounds
I also listen to quite a number of radio programmes via BBC Sounds - mostly Radio 4 Extra and Radio 4, with a bit of Radio 3
5. Cross Stitch
My favourite form of crafting

6. Knitting
My second favourite form of crafting

7. Enjoying nature locally
Wandering around the local footpaths and along by the canal.
8. Leger Battlefields Tours
I go on these with The Daughter, and it's always fun to be away with her. It's not so much the actual battles, but the people behind the stories and everything that goes into the events. It's hard to explain, because I do find it fascinating.
9. Recording what I'm doing with photos
See above - I work in a very visual way, so the photographs I take are a snapshot of an item or an event which means something to me.
10. Sir Matthew Bourne's productions
Yes, I did list a number on Week 1, but I don't care!
