Happy New Year

What do I hope for the New Year?

Here is my list, in addition to health and happiness to all:-

That all those people affected by the floods can get their back into their houses and the insurance pays up
That we have some respite from the rain
That governments think about how to make peace not war
That we seriously think about stopping more damage to our planet
That all religions focus on tolerance 
That cruelty to humans and animals totally disappears

and of course

That blipfoto goes from strength to strength!
