Just read online that some lucky chap has won £24.5 million on the lotto. My very first thought was “ooooo if I won that I wouldn’t have to work and I could run everyday in sunlight”.

Safe to say I’m addicted 😂

If I were a rich man,

Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum.

All day long I'd biddy biddy bum.

If I were a wealthy man.

I wouldn't have to work hard.

Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum.

If I were a biddy biddy rich,

Yidle-diddle-didle-didle man.

I'd fill my yard with chicks and turkeys and geese and ducks

For the town to see and hear.

And each loud "cheep" and "squawk" and "honk" and "quack"

Would land like a trumpet on the ear,

As if to say "Here lives a wealthy man."

I know I am going to be made redundant in the new year and one of my first thoughts was oh good I can run more!

Unfortunately I will not be able to buy any new kit but I have shoes with plenty of miles left in them and lots of old clothes for all weathers so I am set.
