Butti's Journey: A matter of loaf and death
Comments

I do have travel insurance. Not convinced it will cover it as I wasn't spurting arterial blood or having a heart attack! It is the reason I wanted a credit card with a decent amount of headroom.
It should cover it. It's the reason why Travel Insurance to the US is so expensive.Right.....it's a nice day so I'm off to cycle the Golden Gate.

They have all sorts of helmets for all sorts of heads these days.
Some are more stylish than others.

That's good. Some people were complaining of the rain there - after several years of drought. Some people are just never happy...So just been for my New Year do. Why did nobody tell I was 24 hours early?
What's the problem? Have another one. De ja do.
In case I don't speak with you, have a good new year, and peace to you and yours for the New Year :kisses3:

Happy New Year everyone.
Happy New Year Mr Zed (the States seems to think I am sending messages from the UK and be over compensating! ) Not able to send any!!
Not very well last night.
Resisted the $400 urge to visit the docs and went to bed instead saving about $100 at least I think. New Year obviously doesn't have a special place in my heart at home or anywhere!Debt LBM (08/09) £11,641. DEBT FREE APRIL 2021.

Oh, don't worry about that. It's a small fortune to send texts from abroad, and you're supposed to be moneysaving... :money:Not very well last night.

Well perhaps that should be one of your New Year Resolutions: Plan and plot to make the next time different (and enjoyable).
Get well soon. Probably more :beer: needed. But not the American stuff..."Follow the money!" - Deepthroat (AKA William Mark Felt Sr - Associate Director of the FBI)

I think I'll go for health and wealth aims;
1. Complete house purchase
2. Complete building course
3. Clear all credit cards
4. Reduce mortgage to under £88k
5. Learn to swim strokes other than breast stroke
6. Train for a 10 k run.
I think that will do!
That was 2015.
Pretty good. Managed them all apart from 3 & 5.
Will put up a new list next week.
Will focus on things this year that de - stress me. Seeing the family has highlighted the issue for me. Also going to try and get a better grip of my chimp - this should also de - stress me.
Keep pondering Internet dating but more likely to annoy me? There seems to be a lot of examples around me of guys my age going out with much younger women.Debt LBM (08/09) £11,641. DEBT FREE APRIL 2021.

So what was the reason for not doing number 5? Or do you just believe "breast is best"?Will put up a new list next week.

So what does de-stress you? Apart from burning effigies of family members during Bonfire night...Also going to try and get a better grip of my chimp - this should also de - stress me.
Of your what?Keep pondering Internet dating but more likely to annoy me?
I keep thinking of that "when I move". I'm just wondering if they'll still have electrons when that happens...There seems to be a lot of examples around me of guys my age going out with much younger women.
And do you view that as a good or a bad thing?"Follow the money!" - Deepthroat (AKA William Mark Felt Sr - Associate Director of the FBI)
