MISSED
I've been away from this blog for a few days as I felt that I'd been neglecting THE WINE GUY blog so had to write a few new posts.
I've also been a bit busy with things around the house, some seaside activities, gym, bike-riding and I attended a PROBUS meeting yesterday . PROBUS is a social group for oldies (I was the youngest there by at least a decade). It's a bit like ROTARY or LIONS but without the community commitment - fundraising etc.
They have, once a month, a guest speaker and one of the group (there were about 60 people there), has a turn to tell a bit about their life. It's gentle and caring and I can see the benefit of this to people, particularly those who have lost a partner. There were a few of those because, quite frankly it's kind of a holding pen for the cemetery.
I haven't been away creating and writing on a "new higher echelon of blogging".
I don't have a need to "sound a bit special" even if some people think so.
I note that my absence of a few days hasn't gone unnoticed with 100% of the readership writing posts on this obviously strange event. It's nice to be missed I guess.

Glad you are in PROBUS. I have clients who tell me about it. They get out and do and see some really interesting things.
Yes, us old retired people need interesting things in our lives. It's a pity that with your beliefs you won't retire this side of being 80.
