The Retirement Thread

[Duc gas]

Morning all, hope everyone is keeping safe? My task for the day is to bake a Bara brith, the dried fruit has been soaking overnight in stewed tea and sugar and tastes lovely. First time I've made it, so hopefully not a disaster.Have a great day 👍

Here it is, a definite success 👍

Yummee and no calories, what could be better.

Anywhere along the north coast from Minehead down to Newquay is nice.
South Devon is busy, as are the honeypot harbour villages on the south Cornish coast.
We like the Boscastle / Tintagel area - handy for the coast and close to Bodmin moor.

And the "Beast of Bodmin".

I got out for a ride this morning, 55 miles, out through Baginton, Long Itchington, Broadwell and Sawbridge to Willoughby, I did a circuit of the village and turned through Grandborough and onto Sawbridge where I picked up my route out, I got to Bubbenhall and turned through Ryton and Wolston to ride into Coventry through Brandon and Binley Woods. By the time I left the house it had turned grey and cold with a stiff cold breeze, the sun made an appearance riding through Long Itchington on the way back and I had sunny spells all the way home. A good morning out on my bike, fast and fun with the wind behind me and hard work when it was a headwind. I'm getting used to 50-60 mile non stop rides now, I was only a couple of miles from home today when the legs started to fade.

I did a chicken and veg casserole last night and late lunch will be............sliced chicken, a bowl of veg casserole (thickened gravy), a few chips and a slice of bread n butter.

How were the radishes? (Or did I miss that one?)
