I've been working outside for nearly 5 hours. It beats the kak out of being holed up in my indoor office.
Yeah me too chopping down vegetation and strimming undergrowth.26° topping up my tan nicely.
After 18 months of nothing Toyota Europe want me to go to Malmö Sweden.
I wouldn't mind topping the war chest up but think I can do without the travel malarky etc.
11 pm curfew here now from today and restaurants opening as well :)

Travel should be fine for you as you can transit through EU. Think you will just need a test....

Business travel is exempt from the ‘normal’ rules.
Get to Sweden and top up the war chest.

Having not done anything for them for 18 months and earnt next to nothing I really feel that I don't need the stress and hassle of it all.
Got things happening here now but we will see.

If they offer enough €€€’s you’d be fool not to.

I get you phil. Since retiring I’ve worked nearly every day renovating this house and have mostly enjoyed it. A friend of my Mum wants a 3 storey townhouse renovating which I said I will do as it’s a good earner but I’m trying to delay it to end of September start. Would you feel more inclined to go to Sweden if it was after the summer?

Good Morning all.
I have slept on it and still not sure to be fair.
My days are full here with renovation and my workshop is well on the way to becoming operational and I have another restoration project looming this weekend.
At 59 I think I have had enough of the full on rat race and I can have a nice balance of everything from home.
During the Pandemic they really weren't interested in me and now they are.
Stay Safe all.

Hello everyone!
I have my camera set up to track the clouds immediately in front of the sun whilst the eclipse happens behind them. Hopefully there'll be some breaks in the cover and a reasonable timelapse may occur.
HapPea Thursday! x

Sounds like your mind is made up, Phil. I'm not sure about the relevance of the slowdown during the pandemic (which hasn't quite gone away yet), but if you don't want or need to do it then chapeau, mon ami.

Anyway, are your lot going to let holidaymakers and half-wits visit France in August for Le Mans then, or not?

Morning, all. Another day of grafting away on the buttons from my garden table office.

They were speaking last week about pan-European travel for holidays. Don’t think it includes us though.
