The Retirement Thread

[12boy]

Enjoyed my walk to the library and back. It's a little over 6 miles round trip and I vwas able to stroll along fairly well and did the miles in 21 minutes a mile. This is my 4th day walking and I feel am getting back into the groove. Listened to reggae and Motown my Ipod while trudging along, which I enjoyed as well.
The pic is the little valley I live near, looking south to Casper Mountain. We still have a liitle snow.

Morning. Looks a bit slushy out with last night's sleety snow still lying. Not sure whether to walk or jog. Today's excitement is blue bin day.

 

[Drago]

I have risen!

Lol. I saw the trailer and had a little chuckle!

Going to watch Marcella at 9.

God knows what Molly is up to. She’s opened a drawer in the kitchen and stuff is getting rattled about.

May have told this before but years ago a group of us went to Chester zoo. Among us was a young woman who's surname was Beaver. A lovely 'girl'.......in her 30s at the time.......but very naive.
We were all looking around the gift shop type place when she saw a T shirt with the logo "I enjoy beaver diving".
She was all for buying it but one person was brave enough to explain things to her

The "relicts of auld dacency " or as the english would say ..a well bred young lady of discerning taste .

Good morning to one and all.
Why is it so BLACK outside ???? Dark, yes, I get that but it is just black.
Re Covid......on the local news it said the numbers in Liverpool had DOUBLED over the weekend......that is scary.
I am due at the opticians in town at 0900. 2 things.........
1. Get the aunties (lost) specs replaced.
2. I got new specs a couple of months ago. The left lens keeps popping out. The 'screw' keeps coming loose and it is sooooo tiny I struggle to get the screw driver in the slot. Expensive they were and just IMO not up to standard.

Good morning peeps.
It's misty but not cold outside.

The highlight of the day will be a bike ride to the market to get some Seville oranges for marmalade making. I've not tried making it before but I want to give it a go.

Dog walking across the muddy fields now that the snow has gone.

Another busy day in paradise beckons

 

[Drago]

Leg workout done. Just relaxing with a Clooney's while my legs stop trembling.

Its quite foggy here. If it doesnt clear moderstely quickly therell be no ride for me. I can't delay the ride too late in the morning as I need to be back to collect Mini D from skool.

Good morning folks, dark and misty this morning, I really should stretch my legs this morning but my mojo is still awol.

 

[Flick of the Elbow]

Good Morning All, very misty here too. About 1 degrees, forecast high of 3. The snow is gradually starting to recede.

Morning all...It was dark and wet when I got up at 7 to empty the dog, back in bed now with mug tea. Sudoku and codeword done, a walk and a bit of TV catch up later.
Enjoy your day folks!

According to the app we are at 7° which, compared to -2° at this time yesterday is rediculous

The crime drama The Bay is on tonight at 9. I see it's the second episode so must have missed it last week. Anyone watched it?
