You’re right Jane. We had faith that the shutter was designed not only to work, but to be repairable.

With all that’s happening in the world
 it’s nice if we can keep one thread really cheerful


and, with that in mind
 my cheerful news is that I’ve just finished a walk with an elderly friend
 and neither of us was out of breath as we stumbled back home

It’s been a while since she’s been able to do that, so today’s success has lifted her spirits. :+1: :+1:

Partner passed CT this afternoon with flying colours. Just one small advisory, the rubber on the brake pedal is worn, but I don’t know how, I hardly ever use it. :rofl:

Plenty on top of this part of the Pyrenees currently which has made it a lot colder than last week. Hope it stays up there, do not like the snow very much.

an excellent result



IDFS, you mean

Is no one taking the sleazy British shysters to court over this? All we get here is the bad news - that gets handed out to us but nothing good does.

I mean, France is not going to help, whilst they quite correctly help only those for whom they are socially responsible - so who does the UK think is going to provide the extra help needed by those they remain socially responsible for?

What’s the situation for UK state pensioners in that other tropical EU country to the South of us ie Spain? They, too, have overseas territories in hot places or the winter-sun Canary Islands at least.
