Ooh, now there's rumours that several other of Red Bull's top men are considering following Adrian Newey out the door: sporting director Jonathan Wheatley, aero chief Enrico Balbo, head of performance engineering Ben Waterhouse and technical director Pierre Waché are also considering their options.

Good morning Richard, thank you for explaining everything. I hope it all works out for you in getting back behind the wheel and on the road again. You treated yourself to a new car, do have fun |

Good morning all,
Sadly being on the equator, we didn’t get to see the northern lights. Tomorrow I am seeing the vascular consultant surgeon to discuss the latest MRI results, then in the afternoon it’s physio to improve the legs and back. Wednesday, eye specialist to check on cataracts and on Thursday we are seeing the skin specialist who wants to do an all over checkup for skin cancer. One of the downsides of being here is the high altitude at 6,000 feet and 10 months of sunshine during the year. Last time I saw the dermatologist, he offered a chemical peel all over the face and the top of the head. He claimed he could take off 30 years! A cream is applied deeply and the dead skin falls off or has to be cut off taking all of the lines and wrinkles away and for a while, the face is red raw, scabby and painful to touch. The chemical peel is not cheap at £400. We have a neighbour who had it done, her face and head was red raw with the peeling for a few months. I will decline and grow old with dignity We thought we would get our health appointments sorted before flying to the UK. What is everyone up to? |

Morning all, A cloudier day today with a nice breeze, I'll take that over the two days heatwave. Thunderstorm warning out from mid afternoon.
Blimey! they've been taking pics of the northern lights in Bolton & sent them to the Bolton evening News & I missed them https://www.theboltonnews.co.uk/news...ured/#gallery0 I'd be with you Phil & will grow old gracefully rather than endure that procedure.

I'm of the same opinion, chemical peel . . . . err, no thank you! If you fancy it just dunk your head in a bucket paint stripper, be cheaper
Hazy sun here, bit of a cool breeze. There was a thunderstorm warning in place for later on here but it seems to have been lifted, still rain forecast. |

It's still due here but the thunderstorm forecast now is three hours later than previously. Boy has it been muggy today even with that breeze.

The skies have darkened & looking stormy now, I'm hearing rumbling in the distance. I've just been out to get the washing in off the line & close the garage door & shut up the greenhouses.
I've seen a few young bluet!ts around the garden lately & when I went to close the greenhouse door I saw a young bluet!t in there, I went up to it & put my finger out & it jumped on it like a perch & let me take it outside to fly off.

Evening all, been a glorious day here, managed a nice doggy walk and a paddle, then got the bike out and enjoyed the sunny devon B roads.
Very pleasurable, weather looks rubbish for the coming week though. Sent from my SM-G780G using Tapatalk
