Undoubtedly one of the leading forces in 1990's pop, STEPS are hailed as one of Britain’s best loved bands. From their first hit, 5, 6, 7, 8, STEPS went on to have an amazing 14 consecutive Top 5 hits.
Memorable chart toppers included Tragedy, One For Sorrow and Heartbeat. Their first album, STEP ONE was certified five times platinum, cementing their position as the UK’s biggest pop sensations.
Their next album, STEPTACULAR, featuring smash hits Love’s Got A Hold Of My Heart and After The Love Has Gone, helped the album go four times platinum. In total, across 4 albums, STEPS sold an astonishing 15 million records...and now they're back.
Steps have come together once again for a reunion tour kicking off in April 2012.
It's a very striking building. It's one of those places it's actually hard not to come away with at least one picture you like. :o)

Bedruthan Steps
The "steps" are a spectacular series of rock stacks stretching across Bedruthan Beach. They first became a tourist destination when nearby Newquay became a popular resort in the Victorian period. Legend tells that the steps were built by a giant named Bedruthan, who used them as stepping stones to traverse the bay. Unfortunately for students of Cornish folkore it seems that the legend was invented by late 19th century residents to tell their awestruck visitors.
Still another element of confusion surrounds the name "Bedruthan Steps". There is no certainty that the name refers to the rock stacks at all; it may equally well refer to the steps cut into the cliff that allow access to the beach.
One of the rocks is named Samaritan Island, after the ship of that name that wrecked upon the rock in 1846. Visitors are warned that treacherous tides make swimming dangerous.
There are wonderful walks along the clifftops between Bedruthan and Carnewas, and the National Trust has built new steps into the sides of the cliff for access down to the beach. The steps are closed in the winter.
The area around Bedruthan is also rich in prehistoric sites; within 2 miles there are no less than 6 Bronze Age barrows and 2 cliff castles dating from the Iron Age.
There are no mistakes. The events we bring upon ourselves, no matter how unpleasant, are necessary in order to learn what we need to learn; whatever steps we take, they're necessary to reach the places we've chosen to go.

I chose this picture for two reasons. First, Danaan started walking independently, so this is a photo of her first steps. Second, it is the last image of Cannonball alive. We found him dead the next morning under the coffee table. The vet believes it was heart failure. He was only 12 years old and had appeared to be in excellent health. I miss my beloved kitty.
