Day 5949 (17/04/2026)

It was a busy day, did some work in the office in the morning, then I had to pick my old car up from the garage and although they changed lots of bits and charged me £500, it wasn't much better but was OK enough to drive to WeBuyAnyCar and sell it, after owning it for over 6years. 


Then we went to have lunch at The Worlds End, which was very nice. 




I went for the New Yorker, with chicken bacon & BBQ sauce. 


While Mrs Smith had a Tuna Mayo. 


All very tasty. 

Then we popped in to see my parents, then went home a booked a holiday in Amsterdam. We weren't very hungry in the evening, so didn't have dinner. 



Day 5948 (16/04/2026)

Working in the the office and no gym today, as I was giving an online presentation today, to a bit of an international group. 



It seemed to go quite well, but went on a bit longer than I was expeting as they did 30minutes of questions at the end. 


We finished the pizza off in the evening. 





Day 5947 (15/04/2026)

It started as a nice sunny day but by lunchtime it was pouring down.  I was doing some work in the office, then took my wife to work in the new car, so I could go to the gym but charge the car opposite, for the hour I was at the gym, which was just enough to get it all the way to 100%.





We had pizza in the evening. 





Day 5946 (14/04/2026)

My wife was out visiting friends, on a girls jolly, I did some work in the office, and went to the gym.



I had a tasty sandwich when I got back, and so in the evening I didn't really fancy much, and my wife had  had a nice lunch out with Karen & Sarah, so we just had a cheesy scone each, which was nice.

Day 5945 (13/04/2026)

We finished off the Chinese when my wife came home.

Day 5943 & 5944 (11 & 12/04/2026)

The weekend, not great weather but time to relax a bit and to catch-up with some things in the office. 


We had a nice brunch. 



And I set up a type of security camera. 



In the afternoon me and Thomas went out for drive in the new car and tried a bit of charging at a couple of different places. 




Then in the evening we had a nice Chinese. 





Sunday, I tried out the charging at Tesco's, then saw my parents for breakfast.


Then home to do some work and then made a nice pea risotto in the evening, with a nice caprice salad.









All very tasty, with a nice chilled glass on pinot. 









Day 5942 (10/04/2026)

Another early-ish morning, taking Thomas to work, then dropping off my old car at he garage, then off to Drive Green to pick up my new (well second-hand) electric car.   




We stopped off on the way back at a garden centre, for a late lunch (a nice tomato & basil soup) and a look around. 



Then I picked Thomas up and we sorted out a few of the settings in the ca\r. 

Then home and my wife made fish & chips. 





Day 5941 (09/04/2026)

I was up early to take Thomas to work, as we are still waiting to get the cars sorted, then I had another busy day in the office. 


My wife, still full of a cold, made a fairly mild but tasty curry in the evening. 







Day 5940 (08/04/2026)

We were both back to work, even thou my wife has a bad cold. I had a lot to do so didn't go to the gym. 


My wife didn't feel like diner in the evening, so I did some cheesy toasties. 






Day 5939 (07/04/2026)

Another goodnights sleep at the hotel and up early for a nice breakfast.





We met up with Lee at theirs for a while, then started the drive home, stopping at Chichester Marina, for coffee and a cake. 



Then home, to c\tch-up with Thomas and have pie & chips. 





Day 5938 (06/04/2026)

We had a nice sleep and had to get up early for breakfast at the hotel. 





The breakfast was lovely but I think its true to say we much prefer a nice lie-in and brunch.  Anyway after breakfast, we went for a nice walk thru Worthing, and along the beach-front, which was a bit windy. 



Then we met up with Lee and went off to Brooklands, for a walk around and a coffee and a cake.  



Then we went into Worthing and ended up at Spun Records, a bar / shop, with a live DJ playing 80's music.  



We went for a Thai meal in the evening. 


The place was a bit of a dive and although the starters were nice and tasty, the food wasn't great. 


I can take hot food and chillies but my meal was so unbearable hot, so I couldn't eat it.
