2017 was a tough aul year. (Trump has a lot to answer for)
So this feel good list courtesy of Amy O'Connor couldn't have come quick enough.
Last year, I compiled a list of my favourite moments of the year. Nice things that either made me laugh, warmed my heart or brought a little tear to my eye. 2017 was somehow worse than last year, so I'm doing this thread again! Settle in.
