Absolutely, the blackberries were grown up a trellis I put up in the first lockdown, sort of completes the circle ?

One of our members was involved in a serous RTA before lockdown. Spine fractures, pelvic fractures, multiple rib fractures head injuries etc. Was in JR until today and now transferred to the Royal Berks today so getting better slowly.

I posted about a fundraiser last week and how I was trying to raise £500 for a ward at my local hospital.
Well thanks to the awesome generosity of people we are now over £5000 and we’re leaving it open until at least what would have been Ash’s 37th birthday in January.

I know very few of you know me and I can be a tetchy little bugger when I want but please read my JustGiving page and if you are able to throw a few quid into the pot, you’ll be making a difference to young people cruelly afflicted with cancer.

Just spent an hour+ with the builder/project manager for the new house. We will be getting the keys on Monday morning. They've even managed to do a couple of kitchen tweaks Mrs Hobbit threw in a couple of weeks ago. Only thing left to do is for the cleaners to go in tomorrow. Finished 4 days early.

I'd come round to help you toast moving in but sadly Covid means my Christmas month over there is knocked on the head (the Alfaix site is still closed

And the guy that owned the restaurant just outside the complex has now got Meson Verfran's in Los G. Not sure how long he'll last there as he's got tourist prices in a Spanish country village.

Thats a shame - Verfran was one of my favourites. Was great food at brilliant prices.

Finding out there is a new series of This Is Us on Prime...in fact (for me) two new series. Happy days.

Forever or just for a break? I have 1 full week then off for 4. And that feels like I am retiring ?
My last working day
You'll hate retirement. Sitting staring out of the window watching people going to work in the rain, wishing you were with them. Sitting with a pot of coffee, reading the broadsheets. Walking around places of interest, midweek, when there's no one there - not being jostled by snotty screaming kids - there's no buzz.
You'll be looking for a part time job within weeks... maybe...
Enjoy it, its fabulous!

Being made redundant but all those 'rainy days' that I've planned for are about to pay dividends. Built up enough reserves to retire early. Big day on Tuesday, getting my car remapped!
