The Retirement Thread

[PaulSB]

I was meant to meet the guys this morning but 60 miles in pouring rain? Really?

Forecast is much improved from tomorrow onwards and my club has rides on Saturday and Sunday.

I mentioned my friend who's having a tough time, hasn't ridden for a long while. Well I'm getting the bike shortly, I shall TLC it and we will be back on the road together for the first time in too long. Very happy about this.

Good morning folks

Wotcha!

Cooler here today which is nice as we plan to walk into Peurto Pollensa, not too far.....approx 3 or 4 miles there and back.
Set to be hot later on so a few hours around the pool (with a beer) maybe on the cards.
We are debating an upgrade from b&b to A/I for next week. It will cost a fair wedge but eating out is very expensive so, by the time you add drinks there is not much difference.

Yay! It's Friday!
Beach walk with doggie this morning, followed by a stroll down to the village for a few pints of wallop and fish & chips...............not that I'm a creature of habit...........

Do you mean old town Pollensa?

Poppies along The American Road on the old D Day beach assault training area across the road from me. Quite apt considering this week in history.

You were too late with your towels on the sun loungers, again.

Priced up a job......... ............Nice being retired.

I think I can spot a dichotomy there..........

I need to do the odd job. It keeps me out of the pub.
