I bet you enjoy it... you're reaping the rewards now of working so hard for so long.

Lovely set of images there Charl. That oncoming lower prom looks superb. I've been following it on GONG, it is developing interestingly and your image almost tempts me to battle the darn clouds out there now. I'm not sure I have the strength to do that today though! Oh dear, it's really clear out there now...

[Davey-T]

Nice images Charl and cat, which one took the selfie ? cloud here, I used to work 8 days a week 26 hours a day to keep my family in manner they were accustomed to, retirement is good just wish I was as fit as I was then

thanks Dave,  I use to have to sleep in a shoe box and could only afford to eat conkers, but we had a gas tv . I took the selfey, smegul was more interested in using my goaty for a brush. hope it cleared for you. charl.
