The Retirement Thread

[Dave7]

Woke early this morning. Tried to get back to sleep but eventually gave up.
Sat in conservatory right now with a coffee for company.
2 things to do .........
1. Get MrsDs car booked in for MOT.
2. Go and root in the outside recycle bin. It would appear that I threw the detergent powder scoop out with empty box. I assumed you got one with each new box but apparently that is not so

I have risen!

Dry, but blustery, out there. A bit like my Y fronts in the summer months.

Good morning all.
It is blustery and cloudy outside this morning.
I think one of the cats found a dragon at the bottom of the garden first thing this morning. A horrible screeching sound which had the dog roaring down the garden behind the shed and growling .
The other little black cat came straight back and the big tabby male wouldn't go out at all.
I will have to get the cat back in to see if there are any wounds.
A quiet start to the day

Good morning folks.

Morning. Was in earlier but it was very quiet. Had a 4.5 mile jog and just finished my cereal. Cuppa now. Dry but blustery here.

Morning . Dark. Damp. Dank. And rather moist here, just like Mr Dragos Y fronts.

Shopping day for us today. How fab.

Stay safe folks

I wonder which is worse..........your y fronts being permanently damp or when they get to dry out .
I imagine being damp would conceal the odour to some extent.

I have cereal, cornflakes with a sprinkling of dried mixed fruit and chopped mixed nuts, washed down with a glass of orange juice.

Good morning. What can I say? It's blowing a hoolie. A ride is planned for 9.30. I'm not going to bail and unlikely my buddy will. This is going to be tough.

It's a flask and sarnies ride today.

Nothing else planned and somehow I doubt there will be major surprises.

I've abandoned my planned ride this morning, going tomorrow.

I would but I've a target to hit. Myself and today's partner targeted 7500 and 10000 miles respectively for the year. We've five weeks left as we hope to complete on December 18th for cake at our favourite cafe!!

I need 132 miles/week to do the final 638 he needs just short of 200/week to hit 10000.

Daft but we're pensioners. 😄

No target here, I'm at about 4200 miles so far this year, I haven't got time to do much more mileage than that.
