The Retirement Thread

[numbnuts]

Statistically you should by now weigh approx 3.75 Kg . But I hope you dont.

No 80kg, but I look like a super lean machine now

I think I'm OK.....just

Would you recommend it as a good way to lose weight?

Retired 6 years ago after 14 years in the RN and 35 years working offshore and abroad. Last job in Vietnam. Thought I'd miss it. Really?
Down in France at the moment. Did a Pre lunch 30 miler and tried yet again the only climb around here that's beaten me. Failed yet again. Ah well.
Is there an e bike in my future?

Dont let @welsh dragon know that as I may still be in with a chance there and cant afford competition.

Lunch report:

Excellent Sunday roast at the White Hart in St Keverne.
We had the 'small portion' option at £6.95. Roast beef, Yorkie, roast taters and six veg.
Don't think I could have managed the normal sized one!
The Guiness is excellent, as is the Skinner's 'Porthleven' IPA - albeit a little pricey at £4.00 a pint.
All in all I'd give it a 9.8 out of 10.

Looks good. As you say £4.00 a pint is pushing it....... I walked passed a Marstons pub today and the sign outside read "draught bitter £2.75 a pint all day every day".

No definitely not, and I'm still not right and the doctor doesn't know why I lost so much weight

I'm cooking roast chicken thighs, boiled spuds and mixed veg for dinner, our kitchen smells wonderful.

What's good about it......it's dismal out there! Lol. I've been out for an early jog though.

Has it got any better Mo?

Just in the last few hours. Roads are drying up now. Sun has stayed out of sight though.

This may split things, the Boat Race on tv today.

Whatever rocks your boat

I must admit it's supposed to be a nice day here but it isn't. I was trying to be positive.

2 women on here and both moaning.....theres a surprise

Grey and windy this morning; a bit like me.

Been on those mushy peas like Dave and Welshie
