End of October we'll be spending a week cruising in the Med. December I have a course on oil portraits from photographs, February will see me on a Chinese Brush Painting Portraiture Course. I'm a great people watcher....
If you have some free time during the week there are courses run by the local council on things like photography, painting, drawing and so on. I need to retire as I could go to one or two classes every day!
In two years time I'll get my NHS pension and will do a round Britain tour on the motorcycle of my dreams, probably raising money for charity. We could always meet then - gives you plenty of time to think up excuses LOL+LMAO!! This also applies to anyone else wanting to suffer my company!
Life's too short not to bite its' bum!

LOVE your post and I will be HURT if you don't swing by good old Lancashire!!
I have been thinking a LONG time about taking a photography course-as you said..life is too short! I need to stop trying to figure out WHAT I am waiting for and just do it!!
Thanks Paul and CONGRATS on your nearing pension! The tour sounds absolutely fabulous. I've got a cousin the USA who is an avid motorcyclist (lives in Washington DC) and just took a whirlwind spin from there to California-then headed north to Las Vegas and back home.
Sounds like a WONDERFUL plan!!
Cheers,

Hi Paul!
OK, now that I jumped into the middle of your thread with a 'me me me" post-I would like to say that your post gives me Loads of hope!
And I agree-the tool is still there. YES-we are human and we are very likely to dabble in the food. The surgery didn't erase all from our brains. We may gravitate towards familiar places and behaviors.
I know I have done it myself. What is amazing-is the moment I clean it up-WOW-I start to shed those extra fluffy pounds! It's not about whether or not we will stray or even gain some weight. It's about what we DO about it.
Either I can slide into the "Oh-I broke it. I did it wrong..might as well keep on the fail trail"-or "Oh-right..I see the scale inching up-time for action".
YOU win! And congrats!
Peace,
T
