The Retirement Thread

[Drago]

Managed to get an opticians appt for tomorrow. It's been about 2 years since my last eye test and I've been getting some grinding headaches. They were happy to accept me being an on call SAR volunteer as essential personnel, so off I go.

Well that was an interesting day. 2 miles from my daughters place and my chain snapped, first time that's ever happened to me in all these years. Fortunately there were 3 LBS's nearby, unfortunately none of them could fix it for me. That will teach me to go out without any tools. So I had to call international rescue to get my son to drop the Brompton off in the car, and take the road bike home. Apart from that we had a good ride around an almost deserted London, even got a photo of a fake number 10 .....

He is about half the age of some in here, he should be rushing around making us all tea.

Never actually stopped raining yesterday and today looks not much better. Forecast best day is Thursday when I have an appointment in the morning which mucks up my attempts to get out cycling in the dry.
Bread rising as might as well do such things on days when I cannot get out for long.

He is a psuedo wheezer. Not sure if he shaves yet. Definitely not a full on wheezer though. Welshie has bloomers older than he is

You mean he's actually younger than those legendary Y-fronts?

Morning all. Wow, that was the best sleep I've have this year, didn't wake up until 9.30. Out with the dog shortly and then some fettling to be done. 🌈
