The Retirement Thread

I imagine I have the body of a fit 30 year old guy.

Imagination is a wonderful thing.

Just don’t cook your full English in the frying pan if cooking in the nude.Hot fat on sensitive areas of the abdomen can have severe consequences.😖😖😖😖

Cooking in the nude is no big deal, you tend to be more careful, it is just like when I was a Blacksmith, treat everything in the shop as being hot, then you don't get burnt.

I KNOW I have the body of a 30 year old.
Problem is some b*stard has stuck a 70 year old skin around it

Naughty daddy 😂😅😇

It’s allowed . She’s 23 and back home after getting her masters at uni. Think I am allowed a little piss taking in return for the pain she has put on my wallet over the last 5 years 😂😂😂😂😀

Just realised, a few more weeks and its 4 years since I was last at work, although the official anniversary of my retirement isn't until Octover. That's frightening really, 4 years of my life with nothing else positive achieved, although if I'd not retired its doubtful I'd have managed anything positive there either.

Sod it, I'll just carry on taking each day at a time, honing my skills for a Last Of The Summer Wine remake.

Serious question - were you a nude blacksmith? Would have been a pretty good USP.

It's just turned very dark and the rain is hammering down. No thunder yet.

Got dark to the South, threatened rain. In the end up, we got a five minute shower.

Maybe you just need to get the iron out and iron your birthday suit again.

There is none left......we have had it all.

Tucked up in bed now, nice and comfi and it is chucking it down outside. Glad I did 22 miles on the bike this afternoon as it doesn't look promising tomorrow.
Bonne nuit tout le monde.

What is too hot for you folks? Just curious. I too have had cramping , feet, calves and thighs but not all those at once. I put it down to not drinking enough water. Whichever muscle it is shrinks down to half its normal size and gets really hard. Frequently comes in waves. Other than water any ideas? Praps we'll have breakfast for dinner..huevos rancheros. This would be a couple of fried eggs on corn tortillas, pinto beans and chunky little potatoes roasted to a golden crust and floury innards covered with a handful or two of grated sharp cheddar and the last of the red Chile pork chops and their red Chile sauce. Then some chopped tomatos, onions and lettuce. Those tortillas, beans, spuds and one slice of whole wheat bread will be my carbs for today. I will enjoy them, to quote Beldar Conehead.

I have acclimatised to the east coast of Scotland, so I now find that I melt at 21. 16 to 19 is just right.

I had an awful vision of him standing by his forge with his rod of iron in his hand glowing with a bright red tip.
