The Retirement Thread

Just finished a Zoom chat with friends, we do this one every Sunday. Zoom switches off after 40 minutes. Works well.

Spoke to our neighbours this evening. Both are frontline doctors. Admissions are rising again in Blackpool. ☹️

Doesn't surprise me. The pictures on the evening news on beaches and parks was scary. If people are going to sit in crowds close to each other, they would be better back at work where employers will ensure they are better distanced!

Yes, 100% with you Mo. Blackpool is a very socially deprived area. Once it is gets "in to this community" (locally we understand exactly what this means) we're in big trouble to paraphrase a doctor.

Goes back to this morning's comments. I know I'm not going to catch this terrible disease but.........

Was Mr Beer the headmaster then?
I remember Mr Galley and Mrs Goldman.
Where did you go after that?

Maybe he had to lie down for a while after you left.

Is that where you got your habit from, " Mi Beer, Mi Beer".

Morning all, enjoying my second cuppa - off for a ride soon before it gets too hot. Nothing planned today.

Yes Mr Beer was indeed the headmaster, well remembered ! My own memory is pretty rubbish, I don’t remember the names of any of the other teachers, or fellow pupils come to that.
My secondary school was Sharman’s Cross, whose only notable alumni I understand was Mandy Rice Davies.

Morning all, looking good out there again this morning, more sawdust making today.

Morning. Another almost sleepless night. Maybe when it cools down later in the week it might be easier to at least get a few hours.

Looking forward to my early walk while it's cool.
