Thar' She Blows.

 The wind off the Pyrenees that is. We appear to be in the cold period. It was two degrees today. But not in the wind. That was about minus 85. I forgot how cold it could be.here when the wind is from the South. I had a shirt, jumper and thick winter fleece on and it still got through to my skin. No snow yet and we rarely have some here but I suspect it will be close by. I think I need a fourth layer.

New Year - New Life

Well here I am.

January 1st and I have posted already, a 100% success record for 2021.

So, this new life malarkey. It's not a change of location as we like it too much here, but as of midnight last night The Magnificent M has retired and I am cutting right back to just some consultancy work. We are going to start enjoying living in the South of France without being tied to the house everyday for 6 months. A chance to go to the coast and lie on the beach in the summer. We haven't done that since our last holiday out here in 2014. And we can go on holiday when we want, or spend 6 weeks in the UK, or many other things you can't do when you are on call 24/7 from April to October.

And a new look to the blog. Just for a change of view.

But no new resolutions.
