    Strewth! I thought they all vested eventually...

    Guess my plan B of joining a hip young Shoreditch where they all have !!!! beards, skinny jeans and thick glasses frames was a bit premature?

    Edit. Profanity filter contents can be guessed by anyone who watches GOT.

    Approx. 12,500 steps today - not exactly sure how many as I dropped the pedometer down the toilet this evening :doh::doh::doh:

    Looking on the brightside, I had scrubbed the bathroom this afternoon and we weren't yellow-mellowing :rotfl:

    Fingers crossed it will work when it drys out...
