Try, try again
Irrespective of whether you “fall off the wagon” due to choice or circumstances, all you can do is dust yourself off and climb back on. Back to basics, back to the grind, winning your health and fitness back one meal or workout at a time. So here we go….

Air Max 90
For years I have coveted a special pair of these iconic shoes. It felt like a missing piece in my collection, and it has taken 2 years to find something that I love in my size. These fit the bill perfectly 🙂

Preview
After 4 years in the house (and a year’s delay due to you know what) the living room’s transformation has now began. The net effect won’t be clear until the room is put back together but the flagship artworks are mounted. Love them 😍 The vision for Squirrel Lodge has taken another great leap forward…

Boat has a home and gym is restored
It wasn’t fun but it was necessary: my garage has been extensively rearranged to accommodate my boat ⛵ I’m not sure it looks as good now but it is a garage, functional has to come first. I’ve had to move a rack full of 🍾 into the house. Actually looks pretty sweet in its new…

There’s always room for hope
For the last 4 years America has performed a rectal exam on itself, in full view of the world’s media. Unsurprisingly it has not been pretty, but I hope one day we can look back and see it as necessary. “Business as usual” is the fundamental reason America is coming apart at the seams, it…

A cold strange day in Worcester
Yesterday I had to deal with the annual unpleasantness of my vehicle MOT. Because nothing was open I couldn’t head to a cafe and carry on working as I normally would. Instead, I dressed for the cold and hit the streets for some exercise. Worcester was like the set of 28 Days Later, eerily quiet…

A bit more snow, a few more outings
The winter freeze has been a treat and I have ventured out as much as possible. Back to work tomorrow, I’m prepared for the worst and hoping for the best.
