That's good progress, Jambomo. You are definitely out of the starting blocks!
McGoo - When I was that small (before every holiday seemed to be bloody camping) we actually stayed in a HOTEL in Ramsey, not a boarding house ...a hotel! It was called The Peveril. As for the pic, somewhere near Ramsey I guess - my Auntie Dorothy (who wasn't a real auntie) was housekeeper for an elderly lady who had a HUGE house with an equally massive magic garden. Or so it seemed, I'm not sure I can trust my sixty year old memories, and there's no-one left to ask.
Liebling would need a HAT of course unless she was being me. Hats worn by all adults on all occasions in the 1950s.
Our kid looks like Little Lord Fauntleroy. Very posh!
IoM has a bit of a joke reputation but was a very popular holiday destination for Mancs and the like. Especially us with lots of rellies in L'pool. Are you sailing? The crossing can be quite rough!

I need to get my own Starts going. They mainly involve training with a view to doing the Indoors next Jan/Feb. I'm planning on 200, 60m, HJ, Lj and shot. I've only ever raced one other indoors 200 (they're very different form outdoor ones) I MUSTNT lose my nerve.
Another start is my illustrated story book. But I can't count it yet.... because I haven't started. Now I have mentioned it I will have to actually commit pencil to paper and paper to scanner and scan to Photoshop....

We're sailing but we have a cabin booked so Liebling can have a lie down

Not even 7am yet, and I've already done something towards project new job - replied to an email about a potential apartment in Brussels. It seems too good to be true, though, so I'm immediately expecting it to be a scam or something.

I have been giving this a lot of thought 
I think one of my ‘things’ is going to be a (Re)Start Something In September- I got into quite a good habit of going to the gym at work for half an hour at lunch time to do some weights or core training. Then I got busy, and lazy, and haven’t been for ages. I shall re-boot it (Tuesday and Thursday are usually good days for fitting it in, just so people know what I should be doing.)

After a week of over indulgence on holiday - some 'dry' days are in order.

Am on holiday from Saturday for 2 weeks but would love to join in if I can.
Need to think what though - have just brought a kayak but wont be around to use that.
McG - went to IOM earlier this year for the first time, boss lives there and shout if there is anything you need to know. It is such a beautiful Island with so many lovely walks.

I’m rolling back a few years and I’m going to start running at least twice a week before work. I have really struggled with getting up early enough to run and am totally out of the habit. Day one shall commence tomorrow.
Thanks for the inspiration Sharkie.

And daily stretching of at least 10 mins. It’s something I should be doing daily to protect my dodgy back but I probably do it a couple of times a week. I’ve just done today’s.

Also been giving it some thought. Finishing 1-4 things I put off every month. I finished the quilt we’ve been working on yesterday the next step is finishing ebaying a lot of stuff I have hanging about and finishing booking an appt with the doctor I’ve been mulling on for over a year. Eventually this is going to take me to finishing conversations I’m avoiding.
Also 20 squats a day in September. I might add or swap something in October
