    Taskmaster

    Season 4 was my favourite. Noel Fielding, Mel Giedroyc, Hugh Dennis, Joe Lycett and some other 'comedian' who's name escapes me.

    Running

    A pretty tough Herne Bay/Whitstable 10K on Saturday. Heavy rain and wind gusting up to 37mph. Didn't do sub 55 which was disappointing. Crossed the line in a smidge over 57 minutes. Alton Towers 10K this Saturday. Hopefully better conditions!

    Mortgage Question

    As you're only 50 you shouldn't worry too much about it. March 2020 when Covid hit and the economy went into freefall, my pension pot did what yours did; lost over 50% of it's value. Last month it went above where it was in 2020. Took just 3 years to recover. I'm 58 and will be retiring in...
