Strange question I know but after many years away I have returned to the place I spent my formative years in.  Indeed my family home is only a mile away from where I am.<\/p>\n<p>From the age of about 2 to my late teens I spent my time in this area.  I know most of it well and cannot walk a street without a memory of some sort related to it.  It&#8217;s a kind of comforting feeling despite the fact that many years have passed and so have some of the people I knew and loved.<\/p>\n<p>But for me there is nowhere like it.  I never left home and did the university thing or took time out to travel the world and when I was unable to stay in the area and had to live within my means I missed it very much.<\/p>\n<p>So to be able to return some years late with Alex was wonderful.  I never take a day for granted as I look out of our windows over rolling heather covered landscape.  Simply watching the sun rise and set over the hills from our windows makes you feel alive and lucky.<\/p>\n<p>Alex and I Try to walk whenever we can.  We spend hours sat on our backsides at the PC&#8217;s and rarely take advantage of the wonderful countryside right on our doorstep.  <\/p>\n<p>Just walking in the fresh air is enough to lift your spirits<\/p>\n<p>With the sun beating down as I walk across the open field with the birds singing and the butterflies doing butterfly things I feel at peace and to be honest quite randy.  Does that seem strange?  To be feeling aroused whilst out walking is a tad unusual I know but that&#8217;s me, and  Alex is at work so I can&#8217;t release all that libido just yet.<\/p>\n<p>I continued my walk which really did take its toll by the end I was sweating heavily a combination of the sun and my pyrexia due to the infection.  By the time I got back home I didn&#8217;t so much feel like a bit onanism but a shower and a rest.  Lol<\/p>\n<p>As the days pass and I feel better I&#8217;m hoping to take advantage of this new found locomotive arousal.  \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I wonder if we humans instinctively have a homing instinct?
