The Retirement Thread

[Exlaser2]

Have to say I do love proper coffee and drink far too much of it , tea is ok too.
On balance i would say I like most drinks other than Gin, Tomato juice , Sauvignon blanc and after one camping holiday, any cheap French red wine. 😀
And I don’t mean in the same glass, which is what a barman once asked me when I asked for a rum and coke and a vodka and tonic many years ago . 😂

I know but why buy coffee from there when I can do my own with coffee pods. 😆

True . It’s just I like to do both. 😀

Home safe. Me and Bruce are exhausted - we need a holiday to recover!

Thats what I use. I have occasionally been known to forget to put the cup under the spout.

I did that once . Made quite a mess on the countertop

Showing my usual ignorance......exactly what is an artisan coffee ?

An expensive one

There is an article that says coffee beans that have been through the butt of a cat are good for you?

What puzzles me is “what made someone actually TRY that in the first place, to find out?”

Back from our Friday meet up, Halloumi wrap with chunky chips and a couple of pints of brewed on the premises NEIPA 🍺🍺. Mrs Tkk is struggling with a dodgy knee following her fall after tripping on a raised water meter cover several weeks ago. ☹️.
We're making the most of the sunshine, with mutterings about a possible " garden room " in the offing🤔.

What is this retirement you talk about.What a day.Sandpapered down all the filler on the ceiling and on the walls,what a mess it makes.Then coated said ceiling and four walls.Cleaned the floor so dusty even with sheets down,i am cream crackered.Mrs P has had to go help her dad.He is not good.She will be back sometime Monday.We are decorating this room so he can come and live with us.Tea tonight has been ham roll two slices of black pudding and half a pork pie.Puddings yes more than one.A Magnom ice lolly.two choccie biccies and a mixture of jelly babies and liquorice allsorts.I do eat some rubbish.Laid on the bed because i cannot be bovvered putting the room back together.Later on there is a pint of Hobgoblin waiting in the fridge.I do deserve it.

Apart from the liquorice allsorts I  could eat that lot for tea but I definitely wouldn't.

Sold my non running BMW this morning

It made a bit more than I was expecting and the chap picked it up really quickly so pretty pleased it’s now gone.

Volunteered in the workshop this afternoon and then a cheeky pint in the pub garden.

I want to know what the person thought they were doing when they first milked a cow.

Copying the calf.
I want to know how they worked out they didn't have to copy the calves.

Knackered.
