APRIL FOOLS OLD BIRDS AND ALL!

OR LETS DREAM OF THE GOOD TIMES THAT WILL COME AGAIN.

Solo travellers unite!

As I look back at the last couple of years of April fool pics I am reminded of the abosolute wonder of the world and also notes of what I should have seen as warnings from my time in Asia. When I actually went to China its unpleasant underbelly was exposed to me so I don’t know why I’m surprised they are opening their vile animal trade all over again in their markets with the same bats that “apparently” started this all.

SOLO TRAVELLERS AND FITNESS

OR HOW TO APPROACH THE DREADED GYM.

I’m going to say this once and once only. You have to be fit for travel at any age but it’s VITAL as you get older. I sin in many ways, and love it, I do, but on returning to London I get back in the gym and always find it easier than I thought and the buzz after doing exercise is euphoric. It removes the winter blues even when you walk back home after in the pouring rain. It makes you feel, erm, smug and self-righteous. Nothing wrong with that old birds, nothing. I intend to do this till I’m at least 80!

I worship you oh nature in your beauty.
