Yep, it's a fresh start alright - maybe I should have called it that, not "travelling on" :rotfl: too late now, but the thought is there.
Unbelievably, the SB for the Norwegian holiday have tracked, though the Wilko delivery hasn't ... since Norway is about a million points (I exaggerate) I don't really care.
Three year railcard has been renewed :eek: I didn't get the benefit that first year, but since then it's been invaluable. My current one expires tomorrow
I was in London yesterday - another British Museum exhibition, which was *so* interesting. Bit too blowy on the street, though, it did occur to me to worry about gusts blowing roof tiles and then queuing at A&E ... not a useful way to go, after all! But window shopping at Heal's was worth the wind :rotfl: some very lovely things were seen!
Today ... more work on the border at the front, that's exposed by the fence being blown over. And my accounts

It's just over 2 years until I can get one - can't wait!
If your dreams don't scare you, they're not big enough
YouGov survey done.
An hour's work in the front border done - because its so easy to access, thats much more effective than in the back garden, hurray.
I'm currently admiring the Trespass sale - it's all a bit different from Primark :rotfl: but I might as well buy quality for Norway - there won't be any easily accessible shops in most of the places, after all
Liverpool Derby on TV tonight. Both teams have fans within the family....

We have only done 1 cruise, ship only 700 people, a Baltic cruise and we loved it, had hoped to do a Norwegian Ffiords a while back, but they would not accept me because I was under investigation for a health issue, had a couple more since then, so hoping that later this year the latest will be resolved and we can book (fingers crossed smiley needed:D)
I hope the fence repairs not too expensive, blustery, but no damage here:D
Good quality outdoor clothing that is fit for purpose = essential. Go for it
Mortgage neutral achieved August 2020 - 7 years early!!!
Great to read your plans - so lovely to hear you feeling you have the energy to do some of this. Enjoy, have fun
Haha. I used to live in Liverpool, the derby days were always a good time.
