November start of month eleven and the clock have gone back ....

November, start of month eleven and the clocks have gone back.... 

Thank you all for the continued comments and likes that you all have contributed on Facebook and Instagram it has really been the driving force that does really keep me going.

I have had more enquiries about a book with all photos more on that next month when I will look into costs etc. Also I have been approached about calendars I will definitely be doing these it could possible be for the year 2018.
I have also been thinking about what I will do at the end of the year after I have finished, my wife Elaine has said do another project 365 but im not sure if I could stand the torment of looking for a photo every day again but who knows.
Keep all the Likes and comments coming see you in December.
Thanks John
