The Retirement Thread

I’ve resorted to watching Miss Marple until Countryfile comes on at 7.

As we all know, the word 'icicle' is a portmanteau of 'ice' and 'testicle'!

Nah - not enough L's or Y's

I lived in North Wales for many year any self respecting town/village name must have a LL or selection of FF's W's and Y;s

if it is really good they signpost it off the A55 just to annoy tourists - e.g.
Dwygyfylchi

Today's ride - put it off due to forecast snow
which turned out to be very wimpy
then grandkids came round (with their Dad because 8 and 4 year olds are not allowed to drive)

went out after they left - wife said it was a 'brave idea' and 'be careful'

thought it was concern and love speaking - apparently she doesn't want me falling over and breaking an arm because I was a pain in the 'neck' (other anatomical areas are available) last time

Anyway just did 14 miles round main roads - partly due to slow puncture that needed pumping up 4 times in just 14 miles
on a puncture resistant tyre with goo in it
either goo doesn't work as well in freezing weather or there is something sticking through the rubber and re-opening it

Guess I know what tomorrows first job is
