My contribution to Climate Change and the promotion of electric cars.
This may appeal to your sense of humour.
My contribution to climate change and the promotion of electric cars - race slot cars.
I am now into my 7th decade since I starting to race these little projectiles but It is as much fun today as it was when I first experienced the sport back about 1960. As a non-contact sport it is very ACC friendly.
They use no petrol except to get to events, provide endless hours of fun whether you are retired or not, encourage innovation and construction skills and get people off those dreaded video things.
Recently one grandfather brought his grandson along to try racing for that very reason.
As a retirement activity, while not as energy intensive as table tennis for example; they keep you occupied, intouch with a great group of like-minded people as well as keeping your body and mind in good condition.
They also promote the electric car revolution although that may be stretching things a bit. You only need to look at the media however to see that electric powered racing is taking off across the world.
Hope this at least gives you a laugh. I attach a photo of my just completed project prepared for a proxy event in Australia. Also one of the full sized but far less environment friendly vehicle.

Bowen Therapy for injuries? Of course.
I love results like these!
The fascia release done with Bowen Therapy can be so effective after injuries.
It seems to reduce the recovery time, it seems to reduce the pain, and it gets people back at work, doing their best, in very little time.
Need some support with an old or recent injury yourself? Reach out to discuss your situation, or book in at a time that suits.

Without a bridle or a saddle, across a thing, I ride a-straddle. And those I ride, by help of me, though almost blind, are made to see. What am I?
