New Year's resolutions

[husoi]

Now that the year is near the end I decided to make some NY resolutions.

This is new to me, I normally don't give crap about NY resolutions but this year I will make a change.

Going go increase my rate of exercise.

From Jan 1st I will:

1 - press the buttons on the remote harder so I exercise my thumbs and fingers

2 - Will scratch my behind more frequently and harder improving my flexibility

3 - Will take longer exercising my jaw by chewing for longer and more frequently, facial exercise

4 - Will drink larger, heavier cans of beer and won't put them down on the table. working out biceps

5 - Will buy more stuff at supermarkets so I carry more weight from the car to the worktop, good for leg exercise.

6 - Change deliveroo to take away so I will have to go to the chippy. And won't go to the one in the village, will take my trailer to town.

7 - Will make more homemade mayo by hand, well using the hand blender, the damn button is quite stiff so I'll burn a few calories with it..

That is some list and will take a lot of stamina and self control to accomplish.

Best of luck

2 is just scratching it  

8, 9 & 10 would require using my brain.

Now, we all know that there is little exercise in doing so

Pay off the bank loan for the Bike this year. Ive doing quite well so far with overpayments. I took out a 5 year loan and am almost half way there after 2 years: I owe £6,300 - I borrowed £12k. I remember considering PCP, had I done that I would have another year of payments and only have paid half the value. so glad I decided to buy the bike outright. It was a great choice. I should really do a long term review at some point.

Have a couple of those.

Boiler will be paid by Feb

Then a couple other loans to be done with by end of 2021 if not earlier.

then will be left with mortgage and the car, but car is a 0% loan so in no rush to pay that one  

Once the loans are paid I'll be increasing the overpayments towards the hoose

Why an earlier one?

it's because the F model has spoke wheels and i think that type of bike looks better with them (not slagging yours off by the way)

I think so too......it's just that the F model is getting on a bit now and things like the dash etc are very dated now compared to the G.

Much better front end on the G in terms of headlights, mirrors etc.

But you know the G wheels are not cast alloys as such don't you?

They're sort of interlocking bars.......

Much smarter than buying an F and messing around with exploding water pump seals and all that misery.
