The Retirement Thread

Good morning all. Another sunny and warm day beginning. Will take Molly on the beach later on and then .................. ??????? see what my wife has in store for me until turbo time about 4pm. It is my daughter's birthday tomorrow , she will be 42. The Card Factory shop is closed so I will have to buy one from a supermarket.

It does for everyone I tried it on, apart from one on here who I guess is wired up wrong

Couldn't do it. Arm and leg went in any direction they wanted to!!!!

Sit on a chair with your right leg hanging and make clockwise circle with your foot now draw a number 6 in the air with your right hand.

Just did that. No problem except the woman opposite me in the bus station was giving me some strange looks

Nothing new then. Everyone gives you strange looks.

Morning all

Will be firing up the CRV this morning, for the first time in a week, to nip down to my local brewery for emergency beer supplies.
Finished in the front garden yesterday, so we'll make a start at the rear later. Just doing an hour a day to stretch it out.

Could you video it so that we can all see. Right leg and right arm.

Morning all.

After a another dreadful night’s sleep I intend to give my new knees an airing on the bike today!

The forecast is slight winds and 17 degrees here today so a slow bimble and see how far I can go.

 

[Drago]

I might design my next tattoo today.

@Dave7 buy the pie, make the chips and gravy, forget the peas.

The trick is to let some gravy on just a few of the chips which you eat first. The rest can be dipped in the gravy one gob full as a time.
I cant stand the thought of gravy on fish either.

Well I've been up since 5.00am. A second coffee is needed.

Weather is looking great again though I can see a breeze in the tops of trees. This will mean headwinds when I get to the top road. I'm fed up with wind!! 8C at present.

Not sure what the rest of the day will bring. Not much I suspect.

How did that get past the pre-posting @classic33 filter?

Busy busy busy this morning .
0730 is the Aldi dash
Back home and get on the exercise bike
Take food to aunty and get her to sign a form (which I will pass through the window (thats an open window Classic)
Then, its pie shop time
They do a pie, mash, peas and gravy for £4.00 but not sure to have that or make my own mushroom & onion gravy and throw a few frozen chips in..........what think the mass ???
I will report back later.
Have a good day all.

I'd advise cooking them first, or at the least, defrost.

 

[Dirk]

I like gravy on chips with plenty of vinegar.
Gravy on fish is a definite no no.

Morning all. Happy St George's day.....@Paulus I've been trying to work it out how many years ago that we did the FNttC to Bognor, that was on a St George's day. One of those dates that sticks in your mind.

Not a lot on today, just a doctor's telephone appointment at 9.30. I'd better get up then!

A happy St. George's day to you John. 🍺🍺 and all on the forum.
Looking back through the calendar I think it would of been 2010 when the 23rd was on a Friday. 10 years goes quick.

Good morning peeps. Cool here. Might drive into town to give the car a bit of a run. (Shut up classic).

Duly noted, for use at a later time.
