The Retirement Thread

[classic33]

Sitting on my balcony after a siesta, surrounded by clear blue skies and mountains, off out for a bit of people watching shortly followed by dinner in a couple of hours. I wrote this a couple of hours ago.

What happened to the nights?

What happened to the nights?

They are spent rehydrating, it is very important to do that.

Good morning folks. Seems to be a bit brighter today.

Good morning folks. Seems to be a bit brighter today.

Supposed to be a bit drier today.
Then it seems like back to the rain for a few days

Morning all, I have a 50 mile ride planned for today. The weather looks to be favourable. I hot the grass cut yesterday once the rain stopped, the sun came out and as it was breezy it was nice and dry.

good morning folks, we have a house full, two sons and a granddaughter, Stepdaughter and stepson round later, breakfasts under way, granddaughters tucking to a full English, I'll make a brew when the kitchen's empty, suns out and the washings out, rain later.

Morning all, suns out but it ain't warm, still it's not raining so I can go out for a spin

You finished all the packing now?

Had to unpack again as I lost my passport.

Arrived yesterday afternoon. Blimey, everything is expensive. Never done b&b in Spain before. Bar and restaurant prices are crazy compared to the Algarve. Even burger n chips is €10-12. Fish n chips is €18 minimum. We are going to the main town today, maybe it will be more reasonable.
At least it sunny and hot.

Rubbish weather here in North Wales for last two days. Hope it will improve by tomorrow as we are planning to go to South Stark on Anglesey to take pictures of puffins and have lunch somewhere. Fingers crossed.

You will need a VERY big lense as, sadly you cant get near them. Look out for the Choughs.

Painting fencing all day today while we have a dry day.
We did eleven panels on thursday(only thirty one to go)
The weather looks rubbish after today so god knows when we will finish it.

Off for a doggie walk on the beach in a bit, then having a stroll down to my local for Sunday lunch.
Haven't been in for 3 weeks, as we've been away. Hope the landlord still recognises me.

Nice morning here in Anglesey, arrived back from our “Tour de Eire” on Friday, recovery day yesterday so as it’s sunny this morning time to wash and check the bike.

A good trip, four riders with a combined age of 259 years covered 200 miles in four and a half days with only one puncture and a couple of mechanicals. Had to ride 40 miles last Tuesday in pouring rain, the excellent Guinness made up for it though.

The biggest lens I have is 300mm. I can always crop the picture afterwards if it is sharp enough.
