Thank you all...I have had a great day so far.

Had lunch out but still managed to do more work on my projects ...it being wet means it is cool and I have to seize the opportunity to take advantage of cool conditions to move forward..the pad for the electrical shed is close to completion so I will be able to instal the 24 volt system very soon...anyways I am doing what I choose to do and that's what it is all about really.

I have decided to celebrate my birthday I will buy a new guitar, another amp and effects pedal and a zwo mono camera , the new flash one, with filter wheel with filters and oag plus a guide camera and maybe a couple of new tshirts, although new clothes is probably going overboard...still I will see what they have at the Salvation Army Store.

Happily my spider returned last night having been away for days..who could ask for a better birthday.

Other projects...this morning early I connected my water tank such that I will collect my own rain water which is a big step forward and in time I will re plumb the van so as to instal a pressure pump and have running water...life is just so good.

Thanks again for the kind wishes these are very important to me ...it is so good to know that there are some kind folk in the world.
Alex

Thank you Nikolas I had a great day ...sorry to be so late in thanking you.

But every day for me is a great day..if I am fit I say to myself how lucky I am to be doing stuff but if I am having a bad day leg wise and have to lay around in bed I say to myself how lucky I am to have a valid excuse to take my foot off the gas.

On my mug it says "Enjoy each and every moment" and that although simple says it all.

Success is not about money it is about attitude...even better when you have a good attitude and all the cash you want...and no need for booze or make believe...no fear of death is my lucky one given most fear death.

Funny thing..all last year I thought I was 74 ..not sure why ...so it is like I have got a year for free...you see right up to Xmas I am thinking 74 then someone asked how old I would be this birthday and before I could give a wrong answer my daughter said 74... it is funny nothing has really changed but I feel as if I am a year better off and that has made me so unexplainably happy...it's all in the head admittedly but that is where the game is played.

Happy belated birthday Alex, I’m glad you had a nice day, and found an extra year up your sleeve....I turn 50 in a few days so hoping very much that it’s all in the head, because there I feel 18!

Best

Thank you Hemi.
I retired at fifty..medically unfit...but as I got better life really openned up...became a father again and that was so rewarding being there all the time and I had to mask the pain and stop complaining which has turned out to be one of the best skills I have. Anyways it is much better than you think. ..But dont waste time..get what you want now..dont put anything off.
Make your main goal retirement from working on other peoples stuff and start working on your goals and dreams.
Go for it.
Thanks again.
Alex
