The Retirement Thread

Countryfile was wrong.......I got soaked!

Took it nice and easy and enjoyed it apart from getting soaked through and a bit cold.

A wee bit bleak!

Bonjour hommes et femmes. This morning, the repair man is coming to put a new diverter and pump on our boiler and then walk Molly. After that, a bike ride is called for as this is supposed to be the best day of the week. I am also expecting my new chain to arrive so I intend to fit it this afternoon. At 3.30 , I have an appointment at our local tip to get rid of two bags of garden waste before filling them again when I cut the grass and small branches I cut yesterday. Busy day ahead for a change.

I'm sure Classic will be along to ask you why the repair man is walking Molly so I will save him the bother!

Bugger, I'd just spotted that one.

Good morning, clear sky, sunshine not a breath of wind. The guys are meeting at the top of my road at 9.30.......and I'm decorating. Think they did this for a laugh. Bastards!!!! 😢😄

EVERYTHING that needs moving from the front room is moved. Furniture covered. Next job is to clean skirting in the hope it won't need glossing, same for dado rail. Mrs P is onboard with this plan, to my delight and surprise.

Then:

1. In to town to buy paint and new roller
2. Rub down window and door frames
3. Wash said frames
4. Gloss window and door frames
5. Repair chip in window frame
6. Dust sheets down ready for emulsion on Tuesday

If that lot gets done I shall clean the bike in preparation for Wednesday, the inside of the car as it will make me happy and cut the grass before I have to make silage from it.

You beat me to it.

When I read it again, I realised what I had done. Well spotted. I must be more careful in future and read it back before I post it.
Right, off to walk Molly now.

Mr WD wants to do the shopping today, so I am off to the Metropolis.

Is there someone on the far side of the tree, against the wall?
