    I always fancy a walk before work but never find the time even if I get up early! Well done!

    Thank you :)  I haven't today as I've got a busy day but will try and squeeze in something later.

    Looks like July is going to be your best PAD month so far.

    Creeping up with that PAD total!  I managed a survey cashout yesterday.  I still have a fair bit pending.

    I didn't go for my walk this morning as I really want to finish a document and I have a day full of meetings.  Hopefully I can squeeze in a walk or a workout later.

    I do enjoy doing a short week!  I saw a job that interested me yesterday, however it was part time and min wage.  Working with a charity.  It's the sort of thing I'd like to do when I get to the point that I 'retire' from full time work.  I think even if they change the retirement age, I can still go when I planned, as I expect to be working anyway, so as long as I can live on a lower wage, it will help tide me over until I can take my pension.  If they don't, I'll probably take it at the first point I can to ensure I don't get affected by any other changes.
