    Congrats to those joining (or planning to join) Team Unemployable 🎉
    .
    We treat the garden as a free gym….less into organised classes - last time we went to a yoga one a few times - ended up injured (perhaps trying too hard 🤪).  I enjoy cycling - managed a sublime 40m on a sunny day around half the Isle of Wight on Monday, before the rain & winds set in.  Have a 4 day camping/cycle mini-adventure with a pal in Devon in a couple of weeks, so I needed the practice….
    Walking is also good for keeping fit/mobile, I believe….

    It’s interesting to me how some like structure.  For me, a key joy of not having a day job is the flexibility to be a bit more random.  
    Sure, some things take planning, and we are into a bit of a groove on some holiday things, but I love the ability to make snap decisions without having to refer to a manager!  Key is having an online diary we can both check & access - makes it easier to book shows/gigs etc when you can quickly check you are free.  Google calendar is a free one that works for us.
    We also have a shared calendar- very useful for planning gigs and getting away. My garden is also a free gym with lots going on there right now.
