This year's title comes from the lyrics of a Leonard Cohen song - Dance me to the end of love. I don't know the song, but its lyrics are wonderful.

This is me, my hopes and dreams - honest and with little hidden. As always, no hiding, no flinching and no compromise.

It's now four whole years since I started this. There is no-one doing PAD who has achieve 4 years of continuous daily photography, either with or without a diary attached. Just because it's a diary first and foremost, don't be fooled into thinking it's not a valid PAD. There were only three people doing PADs when I started and all of them stopped at some point before reaching the four year point. This is not a PESO, just a daily record of being me.

Last year's diary is here! and the previous years - 2005 here then 2004...and the one from 2003 here.

.....*******STOP PRESS****** 2008 starts here!
