The Retirement Thread

[Paulus]

Morning all, MrsP is off to work shortly, I will be out with the dog shortly and will stop at the cafe on the way for a bacon sandwich and a mug of tea.
A few domestic things to do and then maybe a pint or two in the Mitre at lunchtime. Anyone else watching the tour during Yorkshire? I shall spend the afternoon watching and then I shall cook up some gastronomic dish for tea tonight. That seems to be my day planned

Good morning. It is Bank Holiday weekend so the weather is sh*te. Very misty, and lots of rain. . Have a good one folks.

Weather is predictable as its a bank holiday and getting cold

Yep. Hope you haven't packed your fleecy lined ones away yet as I think you will need them this week.

They are on standby should they be needed.

Morning all .
I need a coffee. I take a herbal anti cancer medication (Esiac) first thing each day and must wait a short while before eating/drinking anything.
Off to a funeral this morning. Our neighbours for many years had 4 sons. Eventually the dad died (he was a heavy smoker tbf) the lads all moved on and the the mum sold the house. Now she has died. Funerals are always sad but I hope to chat with the lads afterwards.
Then we will see what the afternoon brings.

You certainly have a good knowledge about Mrs D's fleecy ones

Mornin' all.
Doggie walking on the beach first thing.
Back home to sort out a new contract with Plusnet; shouldn't take long as their customer service is very good, I've found.
Long way around walk down to the village for lunch and our usual Friday lunchtime Grockle watch from inside the George. Should be a busy one today as it's Bank Holiday.
Will report back later on rate of Grockle ingress.

Not toooo much. She showed me the pink lacy ones, the black ones and the dark red ones but I have not seen any of the others.

I just tried to put a picture on for you but it wont fit in the space.

It’s like bleeding winter out there. Stopped to chat to a lady on my early walk and got absolutely frozen. Just thawing out now. Blink of sun now so it might warm up slightly....or at least get less cold!

Temperature seems to be actually dropping here. I have just put the heating on.
