The Retirement Thread

[Exlaser2]

Evening all . Just spent a lovely day with my better half celebrating my 58th birthday. We didn’t really live the jet set life, just brunch at a farm shop we love and a walk round pitsford water so I could test my new toy, I monocular. Also a nice bottle of fizz might just be waiting for me in the fridge too.
We were going to go out to our favourite restaurant on Saturday but lock down 2 the sequel has rather stopped that.
Here is a pic of some of my birthday presents just to prove what a sad old man I am lol😂

Any damage? I have repaired a lot of hail damaged cars over the many years I have been fixing dents.

It seemed to be millions of tiny hailstones rather than thousands of golf-ball-sized ones! They melted away pretty quickly. I don't reckon that they would have caused any damage.

I was out on my bike on the local hills one summer and a hail storm blew in. The hailstones that time were painfully big so I took cover in a bus shelter. The road was unsafe to ride on for 15 minutes after the storm passed over until the warm road surface melted them.

Turned out nice here. Pleasant donder along the usual trail. View attachment 556074

Loads of leaves down now.

Getting confused I am easily confused Not sure now if l have been for a bimble a donder or my usual pootle 🚴🏿‍♂️🚴🏾‍♀️

I see no one has asked the obvious question. You say these were bondage handcuffs?

I just wondered how you're so sure of this? 😄

Just looked in the draw their not Mrs Ps

Bimble and pootle are cycles but a donder is a walk.

Half a Mo!
Just back from a 5k bimble which works out at half a Mo as she ran 10K this morning
I've found several items when out running, often on my early morning Sunday long runs. Over the years I have found, in no particular order:

• A £10 note in the middle of a field.
• a £1 coin
• A roll of wallpaper, still in its plastic wrapper lying in the middle of a pavement.
• A set of car and house keys on a trailway
• Numerous children's toys that were probably thrown from pushchairs

This mornings run puts all those in the shade as I stumbled across a pair of Bondage Handcuffs lying at the side of the road They looked to be quite well made and I was momentarily considering picking them up and taking them home to see if Mrs Tenkaykev might be interested😄 On further thought I realised that I am quite attached to my testicles and I'd like it to stay that way.
I can't be the only forumite to have come across the odd item when out and about, so what's the oddest thing you've found?

Err I think hand cuffs go round the wrists and not that part or the body you mentioned 😱😱😱
