The Retirement Thread

[GM]

Morning all... Another very frosty night. Just unloaded our Asda delivery, can't believe how much stuff we go through in 2 weeks

Our daughter has found a new flat, so she'll be moving out over the weekend. Looks like it might be Dad the removal driver as well as my other duties.

Have a good day folks! 🌈

Oh! Just realised..........
Yay! It's Fish Friday

However, I shall be having one of MrsD's homemade pasties and a pint, or two, at the Dirk Arms.

I would delete that.You might get a visit from constabulary to close you down🤪🤪🤪🤪

Dave........relating to your lack of appetite......did you ever try the Floradix liquid? I find it increases my appetite.........usually when I don't want it to!

Hi Mo. Yes we did try Floradix. Tried several things tbh. Our appetites are gradually coming back eg yesterday we had a piece of toast for brunch and chilli, rice and a shared jacket potato for late lunch.
Today will be toast breckie. Late lunch will be a ready meal cottage pie with broccoli and carrots.

A gin question for you.
I put this on the 'food and drink' section but I know there are gin drinkers on here.
On impulse I bought a bottle of Spice Apple & Ginger gin.
Q. What do I mix it with ?
Q. Anyone ever tried it ?

Not tried it, but ginger beer might be to strong. I would go for the standby, sprite or seven up. Makes it a light drink to have

Ta.
Its the actual Gin that is called Spiced Apple and Ginger.

I'd still go with sprite or seven up. Goes with all gins and makes it a light drink.

When my step son and his wife were returning to America they had a box of Xmas crackers in their luggage they had them removed as they were described as an explosive.

Some of the fireworks being let off here were seriously loud, I haven't heard bangs like that since I saw an army display and they were firing the guns on the tanks.

the "orange idiot" seems to be losing the plot entirely , my goodness , you could not make it up . He could do with a good early morning bimble or figgin !! to cool his jets , but he is more in tune with the sex pistols " friggin in the riggin ". I am half afraid and half fascinated to see what he will do next.

Trouble is nobody has ever said NO to him before.He is used to getting his own way.This has come as a shock to him.

What I find equally worrying is that many Americans still want him as President.

Back from the supermarket, quite quiet, no apparent shortages of anything, loads of toilet roll. Was quite dense fog down near there but back at the house now the mist has just lifted to reveal a clear blue sky and

To be honest, Biden is no better. He doesn't like the English and would love the EU to be able to stuff us. And he is just as big a crook as all the rest of them.

Maybe, he could furlough the staff?

Mrs Tenkay and I have been on the Brommies up to Wimborne. I took "Badger" so I could check out my basket fettling. The combination of wire shopping basket and grey hair means that motorists give you a wide berth.
Mrs Tenkay went to " Spill the Beans" to get some organic dried fruit and pulses, while I went to get bread and cake from the "Artisan" Baker who's just installed some new wood fired ovens.
I reckon that must qualify us for "Hipster" status 😎😎😁
