The Retirement Thread

[SpokeyDokey]

Finally finished my all singing all dancing Heavy Rock mix on Spotify - has taken me ages to compile.

Lovely Wife not a fan so it's one for me to belt out when she is not around.

Had to (possibly obviously) be titled after this track:

24 miles on the trike and made these beauty's before I went out chicken and stuffing pies

Wimbledon? I can get quite into it once I get started watching.

Got no interest in tennis at all.
Bargain Hunt, Homes under the Hammer and Escape to the Country however..............

I won’t even ask who has eaten a bit!

On this occasion you would be wrong. It was one of my grandsons what ate it.

Brian will be getting worried he won’t get a bit......youngsters are usually good at demolishing food!

I've resigned myself to a few days of daytime television.

How wonderful
Cant think of anything I would rather do.

The problem with those home hunting shows is that (whenever I read a preview) the budgets are all £500K upwards.......nothing for the average couple oop north.

That's a cracking pair.

 

[172traindriver]

Just crawled out of bed.
You know when you get those days when you ask "where has my energy gone"?...........well thats me today, very lethergic.
Hopefully a cuppa will sort me out.

Think of Welshie
That should get you up and going

 

[172traindriver]

Yeah - been here before.
Need to be as immobile as possible for a few days to avoid further spasms and to allow the muscle to stabilise before I think of doing any physio.
The muscle spasms absolutely pole axe
me and frazzle my brain!

I hope it settles down soon and you can get back to normal as soon as.

 

[172traindriver]

And you still manage to run and cycle?

Shes a tough cookie

 

[172traindriver]

Yes, but it's a struggle. It seems to have affected the power in my legs. I run nearly 2 minutes per mile slower and cycle roughly 2mph slower for the same, if not more effort. Frustrating and a bit demoralising, but I certainly don't want to go down the back surgery route if I can avoid it so I will just keep plodding away the best I can.

At least they've binned Jeremy Kyle
