Topic of the Month – May 2017

Topic of the Month – February 2017
Posted on: January 30, 2017This month’s topic is ‘Longing’, which seems a good way to start a new year. Or maybe it is the absolute worst way to start a new year. Quests, quotes, wishing, plenty of ‘if only things were different’. A topic full of wist – but at least it’s a Trump-free zone.
