    Best thing about not working for me is that I don't have a routine. If I want to stay in bed reading until afternoon I can. If I want to get up early(ish) I can. I usually go for a walk some time during the day (and am now doing 2,000+ steps a day). If I choose to eat out I can - usually mid afternoon to get a table.
    Do you mean 20 000 steps? I can do 2000 steps just round the mansion!
    Corrected that for you.  :D
    Lol, running round after my three year old granddaughter doesn’t take much doing!

    I meant 2000. I mentioned earlier that I have had a problem with my ankle so that is an improvement.

    Sad - I thought finally I had found someone who did similar to my 1k a day and 3k on a good day :(
    I think....

    Oh, I’m so sorry, I didn’t see that. Well done on getting up to 2000 though.

    I married little miss chatterbox. I am really suffering with it now in retirement. It's constant. I have requested that she let me know when she is going to say something that I need to listen to.

    I feel your pain brother!

    Just record yourself saying ' Yes Dear' and download an app than after 3 seconds of silence plays the recorded message. Then pop in your headphones, turn on TMS and away you go.

    Had my 2nd AZ jab yesterday morning: zero issues, which is good!
    Boiler? Those old ones might be inefficient, but they can keep on going: good luck!
    We had ours the 18th, bloody took long enough, no one our age has to wait so long now, only 8 weeks (we are 60 and 65).  I have a sore arm, worse than last time, but do think they used a bigger needle than last.

    My other half uses his fitbit in the garden, and he routinely gets very high step numbers as it counts his chopping, clipping etc as steps.

    Mind you he used it chopping nettles in a no mans land over the fence and lost it.  There's another 75 quid gone, but cheaper than a gardener i guess.  He got another from me to replace it this week.

    My husband likes commenting on everything, so i wish he would be silent.  Maybe we should rename as little mister grumpy chatterbox.
