Good afternoon all you rum refusers, Champagne shunners, Guinness give uppers! No dodgy dances, either Friday or Saturday. But I could have joined them. I had a pneumonia jab during the week and talk about half knocked me out, during a couple of songs I honestly thought I was going to faint. I could see stars and I was sweating like a tap had been left on. Fortunately, a few minutes later, I felt better, but not hugely but sufficient to feel like I could remain vertical throughout the rest of the performance anyway. Always a bonus. anyway. 17 today, please.Now a gainfully employed bassist again - WooHoo!7

Another evening ticked off. 15/20Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became
In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!4
