    Really? I'm hopeless at that.

    Me too. I'm more into colouring in than words and numbers.

    Last train: minimum three more weeks has also had me looking to stretch my to-do list. Why not look back for inspiration?


    So far I have...

    Painted a room.

    Watched crap films (deniro in Frankenstein, as bad as it is excessive)

    Made pinball videos.

    Dusted and hoovered.

    Built Lego.

    Dusted Lego.

    Alphabetically organised the videos.

    Seriously considered purchasing a super hang on video arcade console.

    Talked crap online.

    Been slightly disappointed in my progress in what feels like a literal month of Sunday’s.

    Missed riding my bike!

    Worried I’m getting to fat for my bike.

    Drank.

    Ate.

    Put ‘work out fitness regime’ on the to-do list.

    Lay around in the sun with my shirt off (highlight, I should do this more).

    Done all my school work.

    Drank.

    Gone on a motorbike forum, knowing I can’t ride my bike anytime soon despite the Most glorious weather to grace the mediterranean let alone the UK.

    Googled ‘essential travel’

    What no mention of you finishing your garage/american diner project ?

    as for your points above:
    2 - Ditto
    4 - Ditto, downside is now she knows that i can operate the hoover, bugger !
    7 - Ditto found software for this called DVD Profiler (free but i paid for a licence - nice app) also did my CD's using Music Collector by GSOFT4U (freeware)
    9 - no change for you there then
    11 - Ditto, in fact i think i have forgotten how to ride, not that i knew in the first place
    12 - to late for us both mate
    13 - Ditto, can recommend animus red from aldi 4.99 getting this is an essential journey as is getting any alcohol which covers your last point
    14 - Ditto, see point 12
    16 - As point 12


    good that that you have recovered from the sniffles you had

    lol, cheers Trev yeah both me and the wife feeling better. My pinball/diner/garage is the painted a room, though it did take about a week with a bunch of coats - fair warning; it’s not a time to order anything from homebase, they seem to be swamped!

    Hope your all keeping well
