Just thought I would share today with you all, It was five years to the day that I woke up to the first day of my early retirement. I was in a very fortunate position and an industry with decent pensions to be able to leave the rat race at 53. I don't know where the past 5 years has gone but I wouldn't change a thing. Was…
As a person with under active thyroid issues I have learnt a lot about the condition and I thought some others might be interested in this campaign. It's not for everyone but it has certainly helped me. https://www.change.org/p/itt-campaign-group-improve-thyroid-treatment-for-millions-of-people-stop-the-withdrawal-of-t3
Chronic overcrowding in some of Europe's beloved tourism hotspots is fuelling an angry backlash, from polite protest to "Go Home" graffiti and even physical intimidation.

Yesterday I took my caravan into the dealership to have failed fridge sorted. Whilst there I walked into the sales area. Dianne, one of the sales team was there and and before I had crossed the 20 feet to her she said 'Hello Alan, how is Fliss (OH).

For most people, bitcoin is a black art- it is for me- but having seen the present bitcoin price of over £2,500 pounds each, its blacker than I thought. When I first became interested in it in 2013 it was £45 per bitcoin!!. The financial gurus that I consult say it's nothing like too late to buy it- one saying that it will…
We are all well aware that many Motorway Gantries have lane Speed Cameras located on the rear of them for obvious reasons.

We are going to St Agnes caravan site on Sunday and just wondered what the weather is like at the moment.
Whilst it's raining thought I would keep amused by really looking at the surrounding area. We can see a small fishing boat on Loch Creran, clouds spilling over the tops of the surrounding hills. Chaffinch, wagtails, dunnock, robins and sparrows fliting around CL. In field in front of us Greylag, Canada geese grazing whilst…
I am sure some of you are aware that Photobucket, the photo web hosting website, has stopped people using it's service to post photo's on third party websites like E-Bay. Many people used it to post photos on here before the forum changed. They want to charge people $400 a year to use their services for such purposes. You…
