Watch match of the day after a pleasant evening at the Adam and Eve pub quiz. Don’t set a six o’clock alarm call, turn over and enjoy a lie in, and get used to taking it easy, if the wife will let me.

I doubt Jimbo is interested in trains but I'm sure he has hobbies he could pursue

Didn't he say he liked to watch the camel racing in Dubai he could become an amateur jockey

Camel jockeys used to be six year old kids, but nowadays are remote controlled robots. The camel owners are driven alongside the racetrack in shoguns whilst operating the r/c.
Not many openings for thirteen stone jockeys.

Put in an offer on a very run down bungalow in a very nice area (yes they do exist in Lincoln!) a real doer upper, should keep me occupied for six months.

Down here bungalows go for a fortune.

Two people I know have been looking for one to buy (cash) for ages.
