Still Sunday where I am. And Mondays have got a lot better since I retired. I forget what day it is now unless I've got an appointment.

It flies past once your in your 50s. Mind you by the time you get there the gov will have put the retirement age up to infinity.

I'm actually anticipating that, I'm saving my pocket money from working to build my own self sufficient oasis. I'll have a dwelling that's completely off grid so one day I can retire without the need of a pension.

I can say red lorry yellow lorry fairly quickly and reliably. I can also sing skiddly-i-del-i-del-um very quickly and reliably. It comes in useful for singing "Rare Old Mountain Dew," which is great for showing off.

Who's good at yodelling? I can do it a bit but it needs work and I have to be careful what key I do it in. It's popular in bits of the Deep South as well as in Switzerland.

As a smoker of almost 20 years I wouldn't even try.
The end result would be "yodel de de do*cough my guts up for half an hour*"

I smoked for decades but for some reason it didn't mess up my lungs or my voice. Don't know how I managed that. Still, I suppose there's time.
