    Andrew arrested!

    This is the real issue at the moment. There seem to be quite a few non Americans being named, but all the big US names are not being revealed. This is a mixture of diversionary tactics and self preservation by those currently in power IMHO. How long they can keep this up for I don't know, but...

    Best wet/cold weather gloves

    I've used MacWet, Footjoy Rain Grip, Golden Bear Rain Grip and Dunlop Resin Grip. All worked for me. I'm not convinced paying more will get you a better performance. My hands get wet and it never bothers me (until I need to pee then you remember how cold they can get! 🫨😲)

    Retirement

    I've been asked if I would consider consulting. It's not something I'm going to actively chase, but if somebody asked, it would depend on the fee. Very unlikely though.

    Retirement

    Bloody annoying but apparently it's because we had a company wide blanket third party only insurance.

    Retirement

    That's it. As of 1st February I am now officially retired. I passed 67 in January and did my last day of actual work on 28th January. It was a busy week as I drove from Glasgow to Worcester on Monday, carried out the last bit of training in Worcester on Tuesday, drove to Crewe on Tuesday...

    Traitors UK 4 - probably spoilers

    I watched the celebrity traitors but never seen any of the others. It's not for me, a programme that rewards people that lie and cheat. Just sends the wrong message IMHO.

    Random Irritations

    We have a call blocking option on our landline through Sky so it only accepts numbers we recognise. However, if somebody else calls and wants to speak to us, they are put on hold and we can decide whether to accept the call or not. It works really well and we get no cold calls. For my mobile...
