And now for something completely different...

Thank you for all the lovely comments about my blog. It's great to know that people have been following my 25th Year project.

If you're missing the daily photo please take a look at my latest blogging adventure, Ladies Who. Expect lots of girlie Britishness from myself and the rest of Comms 4!

I really should put some thank you's on here for all the people who helped with my 25th Year blog. So thank you to -

My long suffering boyfriend, Stu, for being patient and pulling the car over for me to take pics
My Mom and Sheila for motherly support
Lisa, Dyl, Bethan and Tom for featuring in so many of my posts
Silversongbird, Where is Marc, Mattie, J and many others for following and commenting
Comms 4 for support and suggestions
The Guides for giving me plenty of subject matter

I hope I haven't forgotten anyone!

This blog has been hard work, at times thoroughly enjoyable, at other times a burden. I think if you look at the photos from the beginning I have acheived what I set out to do. My images have improved, I see potential subect matter everywhere and usually have my camera at the bottom of my handbag. I also have a very thorough diary of my year, to help me remember everything.

The same but different.

It's my 26th Birthday tomorrow so this is my last photograph for the project. I decided to replicate my first photograph as I thought it would be a good way to illustrate what's changed this year. The house keys are for different houses to the keys in the original photo, the train pass is for a different city, the battery is for a newer camera. I still carry a glasses case but I actually wear the glasses now. The provisional driving license and the business cards are new editions to my bag, as are newspaper cuttings and fliers which I accumulate at work.

I'm sure there will be other posts on the blog, I want to post an evaluation of the project and also a thank you list for all the people who have helped me complete it. But for now, I'm going to enjoy going out without having to take a picture...

Possibly the nicest birthday card I've ever had, plus a fantastic collection of bits and bobs from Claire's Accessories. Oh and homemade birthday muffins too. It's not even my birthday yet!

This gingerbread man really made me smile. I was very impressed that one of the Guides had thought to use the hundreds and thousands to make eyelashes.

Cube - round the corner from the office.

The building on the left, which they have just started cladding, was a huge hole when I started this blog.

More fun with Tom, Beth and Lisa today.

Tom spent the morning using 'the force' on me.
