I'd be doing all the things I said I was going to do when I retired, instead of spending my time either browsing here for lost hours or out with the binoculars and camera that I never used to carry everywhere with me before, looking at everything and anything that comes my way. I wouldn't be watching those of my friends who aren't wildlife crazy (still have a few, but the invitations are dwindling
) go glazed in the eyes as I wax lyrical about the solitary bees that are nesting in their gardens or the merits of log piles by the pond.
And as others have said, I wouldn't have learned so much and enjoyed so much interesting debate and conversation. So thanks everyone - especially Stu of course - for the fellowship.
