The Retirement Thread

I like my leccy blanket too. I don't leave it on, but I like getting into a cosy bed.

Haven't used our electric blanket since we moved to Devon 16 years ago.

Another bright sunny day and temp when I got up was -4.8C. Showing signs of clouding over and sleet showers forecast for later in the day.
Went shopping yesterday to the useless coop and already shortages showing. They blame it on panic buying which I do not believe at this time of year.
Taiwan is taking the new variant covid very seriously. Son has arrived there and has to quarantine for 14 days as before but not allowed in a comfortable hotel. He must stay in a government facility with massive fines if he steps outside to door. It appears to be some kind of prison and he has sent pictures back to his HQ who are horrified at what looks like a prison cell.

Not a grant, but, if of interest, just heard an advert on ClassicFM, British Gas, new boiler, interest free credit.

Buying on credit is plan B

I’m listening to 60’s gold on internet radio. It’s nice actually being able to recognise all the songs.
