Misfits Mid-Life Crisis Adventures In East, Central & South West London, Essex and Northamptonshire.

Week 381, Saturday 2^nd until Friday 8^th October 2021.

This week’s ramble will be short and sweet.  I am spending the weekend at mum’s house and have left my tablet at home which has all the various drafts and lists on that I use to assemble and write the blog.  Thank you, Hel, for letting me use your computer to type this.

Usually at this time of the year I am moaning about getting another year older.  Not this year, my friend MOZ made sure I had the best time.  We did plenty of things that basically took my mind off the fact that I had orbited the sun once again.  Thank you so much MOZ for all you did, it really was a wonderful few day.

If I think about the next 365 days, there is a lot that I want to achieve that’s another reason this ramble should be short and sweet.  Some of my future plans depend on other people and bureaucracy going my way.  Others really are in my hands, I need to stop just talking about “doing this or doing that”, and actually put things in to place.

I am not big on b’days, when I have lived on my own or abroad it’s not something I usually did not bother with.  But living with my friend, it’s always an occasion, which I am so grateful for and about.  I am another year older; age really is only a number.  I need to stay positive and happy and try my best that’s all I can do.

That’s it’s for now.  The TV/Film, Radio/Podcast lists that normally appear at the bottom of each week’s blog will be added when I return home and have access to my tablet.
