The Retirement Thread

I'd prefer my tea made with tea leaves in a tea pot, my Good Lady won't have that, wants tea bags made in the cup, so thats how we have our tea.

Pleased to see you won that arguement (not).

Assert your authority tea leaves in the teapot. No sleeping with your bikes in the shed not pleasant this time of year . Maybe compromise tea bags in the teapot .

A sobering topic to change the mood {sorry}.
About 3 years ago a cyclist vanished on The A82/A85 somewhere. He was last seen late at night passing through Tyndrum heading south and then probably east on the A85.
In another place I notice a report on BBC news that two men have been questioned but not charged and there is extensive police activity around a farm. There has been much speculation in the past but a resolution may be near.
Edit . The men were arrested but released pending further enquiries

A hiker disappeared here about 23 years ago. 3 yeats later his body was found behind a hedge on a narrow lane. No suspicious circumstances. Shame he died alone and in a hedge

We get bodies washed up along the coast fairly regularly.

You can get transparent glass teapots with a built in perforated stainless steel reservoir.A friend of ours runs a Cafe and she has several, inexpensive ones that she got from IKEA. We have a tea spoon with a sort of perforated cage for herbal infusions.

Could be worse.
Could be a nude dead body.

Goes to show how varied our topics are.

You either have a tablet or a phone, so no problem not having a telly

And in other news, we just got our Christmas post delivered today, 8 cards, 3 magazines, a parcel, and 3 other letters, all clogged up in the system since before Christmas.

And a partridge in a pear tree

I'd like to join the LRE but of course no one likes us. If we were not such racist fascists we could have a NAU or even a AU. Perhaps when California secedes from the Union they will join the EU.
I make one cup of coffee per day and it's gotta be good. For me that means french press or my new to me stainless expresso maker. If my pulse hasn't gone up to 140, my hands are shaking and my eyeballs bulging it ain't worth doodley squat.
I've got to get more active outside when it's a nice day like today, -10c wind chill but sunny. Roads are pretty much dry so maybe the Brompton which I avoid for snow and ice.
Be jolly and wise....
