Isolation Day 18 – Starting Retirement

When I took early retirement I wrote down a list of jobs to do. Today I finally got round to one of them – sorting out my digital photos. I think I have about another 2 weeks work sorting them all out. I may not be able to complete my walk along the Liverpool to Leeds canal, but at least I might get one item ticked off the list.

The down side is that occasionally I will pause on a photo that makes me daydream about the places I love to visit.

Looking at the other jobs I wanted to do was putting some of my records on to computer. Copying my records – just getting rough copies will take a month. Probably will not get round to it during the shut down – a bridge too far.

My nose was still burning this morning. Really must improve my hand washing.

Spent a few hours chasing up a train delay refund refusal. They had calculated that arrival at 19:58 on a journey planned to arrive at 19:28 was on time. I suppose if you round to the hour that might be right.

I heard the coronavirus advert by Prof Chris Whitty while I was looking away from the TV. I thought it was Simon Cowell for a moment.

I hear Mic has finished his first toilet toll – so he posted on Facebook. Wondering if this is another ploy. You need to take care with these so called innocent Facebook posts – people can be looking for personal information if you post replies. Now he can scan the replies to his post to work out which of his friends admit to having a large supply of toilet paper and make good targets.

But on a serious note – there are currently loads of social media posts asking you to complete a list. Before you start to fill one in ask yourself – is there information I am putting in this post that is the answer to a security question on an internet account (for example your favourite colour, or the name of your first pet).
