Well hello and happy new year.
Some of you may remember me. I’ve dipped in and out of the SW threads on here for a number of years.
I was a target member at SW meetings but covid struck and the NHS asked me back. I’ve happily been un-retired ever since working 4 weekday shifts a week.The good news is that I’ve stayed in target range but I am a lapsed member so if it’s ok, I’d like to join you again.
I’ll weigh in at work on Monday to see what the Christmas/NY damage is and then I’ll be knuckling down as its 9 weeks until our 1st holiday of the year in the canaries.1 -
Thanks Beanie 😘😘
