July was a month of travelling to new places and revisiting my very earliest haunts (not that i remembered them). It started with
a trip up to Merseyside and tracking down the first house i lived in when i was a toddler. There was also
a return to the Stratford Canal.
Mid month i headed
to Berkhamstead to
visit the castle, and also
to walk the canal there. In doing so i also visited
Milton Keynes for the first time in years. I explored around
Birmingham's railways including visiting Marston Green station, the first time i've been to the station in the place i was born (though to be honest i work a mile away these days so its not exactly a lost world).
Finally at the end of the month a visit to
Cheltenham and Gloucester and especially
Gloucester Docks. I shall be exploring more of the South West in 2017. Song of the month was "precision" by The New Division.
