The Retirement Thread

[Deleted member 1258]

Morning folks and folkesses.
An interesting day for me. At 13.40 I will be in hospital while a specialist shoves a camera up** my John Thomas and into my bladder, then waggles it around (the camera, not my John Thomas) to check that the big C has not decided on a return visit.
**as I will be on a bed maybe, technically, he will be shoving it down ???).
I have this every 6 months and although I have shown clear for 4 years its still squeaky bum time.
But....... what a nice day . I will just have time to do a few bits in the garden then, assuming the camera is clear, a pub meal and a couple of drinks.

Good luck, hope it's all nice and straight forward. I had it done about forty years ago, growth removed then three check ups.

It's OK till you get to the first P afterwards.

Why?

They say I will be on the camera for life as it was the most aggresive type of tumour with a high % of returning. Every 6 months and if he decides it, it goes to anually.

Why?

coz the first pee after the procedure feels like pissing broken glass, well it did for me

Doggie walked on a dull and damp Croyde beach.

Finalizing our route to Ghent, leaving early hours of Tuesday morning, Driving down to Dover, leave car there jump on a ferry to Calais. Ride to Ypres for lunch then onto Ghent, spend two nights in Ghent, then ride to Brugees for lunch then back to calais for the evening ferry home. Looking forward to the Belgium beers and food, a bit of sight seeing along the way. 230 miles over three days, it's been a year since my last boys ride adventure, am really looking forward to it,

It was the same for me after I had it up the front, I still remember it forty years later.

I got a cheeky 51 miles i this morning, cold and misty at first but warming up nicely as the ride went on, went down Purley Chase on the way out and climbed it on the way back, it looks very pretty with the bluebells in the wood.

This came up on my facebook page and gave me a chuckle.

Welcome fellow retirees. I am sunning myself in Boa Vista one of the Cape Verde Islands. I hear that the weather at home is a tad cool .
