Introduction

Good Evening to all you lovely people at the Great WA Family, as always do so hope that you are all keeping both safe and well.

It has been a week of contrasts, but one that has been very interesting to put it mildly, hopefully I will remember all that has happened an be able to relate it to you.

Amazed to find that I have ranked as 40 all week, did not think that I had done anything special.

The Last Few Days

After an interesting morning visiting the local Squadron of the Air Traing Corps at their annual open day, a Squadron which I joined some 66 years ago, seeing a lot of people whom I know, including the Lord Lt and the new Chairman of the local Council, who is as an old friend, not forgetting the MP who is without a post at the moment due to the election.

It was interesting to see how things have changed sine my day, was given a young cadet to act as my ADC during my visit, she proved to be very interested in my RAF career, as she wishes to join when old enough.

Spent the afternoon not believing what Derbyshire were doing against Yorkshire at Chesterfield, many years ago when I was the skipper of the RAF depot side, an ex-professional told me to always put the other side in at Chesterfield when you win the toss, what did ours do today? chose to bet, almost certainly has lost us the game.

Watched the England game, the best that can be said is that we won!

Found a training programme amongst my old bits and pieces on adding bonuses to your product, it really was very interesting and taught me a lot.

Have continued to add more ebooks to the pile, each having at least the first four pages done, when I checked one, which I had decided to write two books on, then found when I did some reseach, that I had not two, but at least four possible books. Have now decided that this will be a decent size tome, instead of two smaller ones. Unless of course I make it four parts, but I will have to see.

Have had a very useful week in the garden, spending an hour most days sorting it out, in fact I had nearly three hours in there yesterday, did suffer a bit today. Have completely sorted one path out completely, just two more to do. Started work on the bottom patio, which enabled me to pick some more raspberries, and appear to have even more to pick. The rain I think, has made this a real bumper year. With luck maybe able to sort the raspberry bed out in the next few days.

Did nearly have a major problem, decided to fire up the weed burner, cleaned a gravel path with it, which was full of dead leaves, then set light to some dead bracken on a fern. Big mistake, as the lot went up, fortunately I had been watering so had some water left in the watering can, was able to put out the blaze before it caused any damage.

The Next Few Days

All being well will continue to work on the products and rain permitting will work on the garden, as I appear to have found a system that works, the only problem that I can see is that the light is now fading in the evening.

As I have no cricket to go and watch this week I am hopeful that I will get quite a lot done this week.

Conclusion

Enjoyed my trip down memory lane, very pleased with what I have achieved in the garden, also what I have done on the business front, especially the training.

Hope that I can know continue in this vein.

Be Happy, Healthy and Wealthy.

Please do stay safe,

God Bless,

Stuart
