That does look lovely, and it was a really fab day today to enjoy the view.
The best thing about retirement is the ‘let’s just do it factor’ smile

Or in my case, semi retirement! Today, I decided to get a sea fix. Living in the centre of the country, this is so much easier to do now that work is only undertaken on the occasional day. I had no plan to do this until this morning, just took myself off to a part of the coast I had never been to before. Had a wonderful day, walking along the front and along the coastal path, stopping frequently to gaze at the views and having lunch in a cafe, then coffee and cookie in the best motorway services (Gloucester). Sheer bliss! Anyone else done something on a whim just because they can now they've retired?
