Today’s lesson from moving house. Make your lunch before the removers start packing up the kitchen! 😂

What perfect album came out when you turned 16?

Last week of living in our home of 30 years. Lots of empty space as we have gotten rid of some furniture. Doesn’t really feel like home anymore. Looking forward to moving though. This home has fulfilled its purpose and now it’s time for a change.

Right, that’s coffee done, now time to clear out the shed before it rains.

Word of the Day is ‘catchfart’ (17th century): an obsequious individual who sucks up to the boss and always follows the political wind.

When we told family and friends that we were moving 200 miles to the end of a Cornish lane at our time of life (late 60’s) quite a few said we were mad. Have just spent a couple more days in the area prior to moving we’re even more convinced it is the right thing to do. Don’t give up on your dreams.

Has to be done. Tiramisu.

The reality of downsizing? Opening a self store unit as you are not sure that everything will fit in your new, smaller home.🙄🙂

That time of year again. 🍁🍂🍁🧹

If you have not watched it yet, do yourself a favour and watch Once Upon A Time in Space (BBC iPlayer). Yes it’s about space but it’s really about what it is to be human.

Another week, another #SaintsFC manager (hopefully quickly).

Probably my last #Saintsfc game for a long time, and what a pathetic performance to finish with. Sport Republic really have mismanaged the club for the last few years. I see very few positives to take from the last three seasons.

How can they punish Hamilton but not Verstappen? Verstappen drove him off the track!

Our house move might actually be happening (exchanged contracts today after a prolonged period of no logic at all delays). Celebrating with a glass of champagne.
