Blog ≫ 2026 ≫ You say you want a resolution

Whoosh, another year gone by. See what I said about new years resolutions last year. Probably the same every year isn't it?

  1. Dryanuary - did it before, will do it again
  2. Five days a week not drinking - seven days a week not drinking in January, then allowing it at weekends again from Feb onwards... pretty much did it, slipped a bit at christmas and holidays
  3. Runuary - did it, and seeing as I've already done January 1st will surely stick to it again
  4. Purge / declutter - haha same clutter is still in the same rooms... I was particularly referring to old comics, and they're still there, still unread
  5. Replace the socket in the study - not sure I really need to do it, is working
  6. New running shoes - must have done this, my running shoes are good
  7. New kitchen - err no, maybe this year
  8. New bathroom - crikey, actually did this one, because we had to
  9. Extension - unlikely, but we did the bathroom... think I'd be favouring a shipping container prefab thing in the garden now instead
  10. Move house - If the premium bonds come up, otherwise no chance

Sunny intervals and a moderate breeze, 1 - 6℃.
