Since I got the convertible the commute is my favourite part of work.

End of a difficult day, remembered i had a virgin* bottle of gin in the larder (*unopened, not alcohol free).

Poured into a favorite glass with good memories.

Its very acceptable.

Gateway to a weekend of sailing and shenanigans.

Lymington to Yarmouth ferry.

I sometimes get teased about sailing being posh or elite and I push back.
But right now we have an opera singer 'entertaining' us.
So I give in.

I always enjoy being by the river. Town Wharf on the Thames this evening.

"Age yourself with a film that you saw at the cinema"

Vaguely remember going to bugsy alone with my family aged 10 or so.

Clearly remember going to see Jaws with a few school friends maybe a year later.

Bus there and back, no adults, pretty scary movie, different times.

Something good happened on threads. Sharing it here as a public service.

On a holiday park today. Why have a boring 10 mph limit ?

Totally bizarre moment today, someone I hadn't seen this century recognised me in the HQ canteen.
Clearly I haven't changed a bit.

She was at school back then so I didn't recognise her obvs.

Had a fairly yicky session at the dentist. Asked if I could play music from my phone through my hearing aids. Good idea.
Thank you Piano Man, I hope it hadn't ruined you for me.
