Lean and mean

That’s my motto for 2020. It satisfies my goals for the year.

Lean. I am aiming to lose 70lbs this year. I’m not going to go crazy with some unattainable diet or lifestyle. I’m just going to cut down a bit on the weight-gaining foods and drinks and try and move a little more instead of sitting here reading, watching, typing and listening,

Mean. It’s kind of connected with lean in that eating and drinking less means I spend less money. I’m intending to save more and spend less. That surely can’t be a bad thing can it?

2020 Vision

Let’s get that one out of the way. Everyone is surely going to make some reference to it. My natural eyesight is no longer that good, if it ever was. I used to be longsighted but over the last twenty years or so, I’ve needed reading glasses.

I don’t really make New Year resolutions as such but I do set some goals, most of which is never reach. The sprit is strong but the flesh is weak you know?

Ealing Beer Festival

We’ve been to the Beer Festival before, but this is the first year that we volunteered to help out behind the bar.

Pulling A Pint

We initially vounteered for two afternoons, but ended up doing a third as we enjoyed it that much! On Friday too, we had an ulterior motive as one of favorite local bands were playing – the Good Ol’ Boys.

Inbetween our sessions behind the bar we got the opportunity to sample a few beers ourselves. There were over 500 to choose from!

We will certainly be volunteeering again next year!
