The Retirement Thread

Morning gang .
How are things with you.
OK Dirk ?? How's it hanging this morning?
Up early again, listening to Tony on SoTS.
Just enjoyed coffee.
I may get a walk in later.

An update on MrsD (if I may).
We are discussing a wheel chair. No one wants that but with Spring arriving but if that is the only way then so be it
Shame really......in 6 months she has gone from a healthy, strong woman to one that can't walk.....I've said it before but this virus is a real bastard.

Re the projected wheel chair. Look for large wheels. Some have small wheels and are a pig to handle.

Dull grey morning so far but dry with no wind.
Bread making day and generally hanging around the house I think tho' may venture out to do more rubbish removal from the garden and sheds. Problem is that whenever I throw something away I discover a use for it immediately after it has gone. Cannot win.

Not the first time I’ve got rid of something then had to buy it again later!

Speaking of Aunt Bessie's her Yorkshires are highly recommended. Be sure to buy the pre-booked ones.

Breakfast was fried egg on toast, sausage and beans with a dash of brown sauce
This meal contains no Marmite 😄

No problem just buy another shed , you can never have too many sheds.

Crikey is everyone else having a lay in? Morning Daves. Morning Paulus. Grey and a bit dismal outside. 4⁰ already though. I notice the birds aren't singing. What do they know that I don't?

I'll do an hour's jigsaw shortly. Probably pop out to buy a new track pump but might ask for CC recommendations first. My good one is nackered and the replacement I bought 5-6 months ago is shite.

Not much else to report. More coffee ☕ I think.

Oh yes. Forgot. The world has gone mad. Utterly crazy. The first ever "tweet" is up for sale in an online auction. The current winning bid is $100,000. Apparently the tweet belongs to Jack Dorsey and is locked in a secure digital vault.

You couldn't make it up. Who are these fruitcakes? I'll happily accept $100,000 for my first ever CC post.

This one from the 11th July 2007!

well don't suppose anyone will remember me

Are you sure it was a sausage you cooked

 

[Dave7]

Blimey..... you of all people should know.
Hendos = Henderson's relish.
