It seems to be the place to visit at the moment and I only wish we lived closer. <br /><br />My mileage for May is 143 making a total of 585 for the year. We've been blessed with good walking weather lately; bright and sunny but not too hot. Had some long days out on Dartmoor and still doing plenty of walking into the local town to do our shopping. Happy June walking everyone.

Despite that, somehow, I've lost 12 pounds in the same period. Will try to do better this month.<br /><br />Never use the self-serve checkouts or cash machines either. I stand in line at the checkout, in the post office and the bank. I worry that self-serve is taking away too many jobs. In time there will be new jobs that we can't even imagine but for now I see a lot of people who still need to work. Not all of the current workforce may have the training or interest/ability for the new jobs either. I'm retired and have plenty of time so I don't mind standing in line to be served. :) Joan, Michigan Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-79410318212761187922017-06-02T03:05:16.528+01:002017-06-02T03:05:16.528+01:00I did 41.46 miles in May, for a total of 92.72 mil...I did 41.46 miles in May, for a total of 92.72 miles since March 5.

The other packaging nightmare is those plastic cartons of hummus or fresh soup with the stupid 1/2"bits of plastic under the lid that you are supposed to snap off to enable you to open the carton.
