I haven't looked back for a second and in the last 5 days I walked 4 stretches of the SW Coastal Path in Cornwall, attended a gig in Exeter, visited a friend in Devon and walked in N Somerset today and helped a friend improve her Spanish this evening. Advanced German class tomorrow, up to Cardiff to see City on Wednesday, visiting a friend in Devon on Thursday and probably watching Yeovil on Saturday and heading for a campsite thereafter to do a walk in Dorset on Sunday.
Life is finite and I'm cramming it all in before the Grim Reaper shows up.
Really pleased that retirement's working out well
