The Retirement Thread

Will do......I was looking at left over mushrooms as well. I'm reckoning the honey will take away the slightly tinny taste from the tomatoes but I'll be adding a bit at a time to avoid over sweetening.

Moroccan food is delicious but can be a touch on the sweet side.

Just checked
We sometimes do a slow cook Moroccan stew with similar ingredient but not the honey. The apricots make it sweet enough.

I declare it to be officially Autumn - I saw my first geese of the year this morning, a glorious honking V wing heading south over West Lothian, about 60-70 of them. I always enjoy that first sighting

Morning I feel fine today, still not had the results as yet, but I don't think I have Covids

Your coronavirus test result is negative. You did not have the virus when the test was done

If you're using geese, it was autumn in April down here.

Well done. Glad it was negative

Were you really expecting something positive from Numbnuts?

Aaaargh... Dodgy roofers have been taking horrendous risks at a house down the road!

I don't want to catalogue the things that they are doing wrong for fear of jinxing them, but, oh FFS - I can't look!!!

And now they seem to have cleared off having thrown a load of old slates and ridge tiles down from 30 metres up... Let's hope that it doesn't rain before they replace them, but there are only 3.5 hours of daylight left, so will that actually be today? (Assuming, of course, that they don't decide to continue in the dark!)

Now you mention it......

My glass is still half empty on a positive note I can go shopping tomorrow

Good afternoon all.
I have had a busy day. An early start walking the dog and then went down to our son's place to help him clear part of his garden. It was quite overgrown and he has plans for planting bulbs and then new plants next spring.
Then out for a late lunch with him and MrsP.
I feel an early night coming on .

A little "bimblette" (a neologism describing a bike ride that's not in the same league as Mo or Welshie)
Out to South Queensferry, had a spot of lunch in the "Ravenous Beastie" Spicy carrot soup, cheese Toastie, apple pie and ice cream 😋

Nice colour brommie

Nice colour brommie

That's "Jennifer" Mrs Tenkay's blinged up Brompton.
Mine is a more manly Orange and Black which reflects my Zen like stoicism.
I also have a red and black Brommie as it's a scientifically proven fact that red bicycles go faster.😁

Mrs Tenkay has good taste.

And of course you have go faster stripes.
