Have you ever played the guitar? I tried too and I was hoping to get the hang of it but couldn't get on with the chords and reading music was too difficult for me as well. |

I have been on small fishing boats etc, also went on a few ferries to go from England to Calais (France). Although I would like too, I haven't been on a cruise. |

I try too. But for the listener, it's very painful for them. |

Have you learned anything new this month? One of the great realisations of getting older, is that you never stop learning. My wife has a car that she has on lease for three years for her mobility needs. She can't drive, so I get signed in has the designated driver for her. Up too now, these cars have been reasonably ok to understand, particularly with the modern technology that these vehicles have. A few weeks ago, she had to give her older car back as the three year lease had ended and she was offered this modern keyless car. Every part of the dashboard is digital displayed - never seen anything like it in my entire life. Cameras looking forward, backwards, to the sides and even looking down. It's taking me some time to get to understand all these new things. I am almost feeling qualified to fly (Not quite lol). |

I bet you're going a good job. One of the scary things about this car is that it prompts me of the current speed limit to the road speed limit. The horrible thing about this, is that it flashes on the display if you go slightly above. My wife, who sits beside me keeps telling me off when the displayed signs keep flickering. Another skill I have learnt this month - I am now professionally paranoid of both my wife and this car telling me off with this modern vehicle. |

I love all animals but my favourite animal would be the wolf. We did actually walk with a pack of them once - A real experience that we will never forget. |
