The Retirement Thread

You ever been hit with a shovel or a chair, they can hurt.

I get hit with them every week if I don't do as I am told.

And they tend to be still usable.

On my TV Mexican peasants with shovels and chairs are beating bad men with six-shooters and rifles.

Yep.......just watched it.
Only seen it 15 times
Eli Wallach......what an actor.

The man who said “ I’ll be back “ before Arnie .

I've had decent day, out on my bike for a couple of hours this morning, watching rugby this afternoon and evening, a bit disappointed at the England match but Wales France this evening was entertaining.

In July last year, we were due to go and see " Les Miserables" in Birmingham but because of Covid it was cancelled and rebooked for June this year. I got an email yesterday advising me that it is cancelled again for the same reason and is now rebooked for August 2022.
We might get to see it one day.

I believe in " All quiet on the Western Front" there was a discussion on how effective shovels were in trench warfare. BTW, "if God did not want them to be shorn He would not have made them sheep."

Shorter handles and smaller blades.

Brrrrr. We are currently at minus 1 but hopefully warm up later.

It is a certain green dragon’s birthday today. 🍰

Good day people. Ah ha! I see I'm the first up, it's been a while since that happened. Looking out of the window I'm not surprised you're all still tucked up in bed* - misty, murky, miserable here.

* @Mo1959 is, I'm sure, the exception and will already be wandering a heathery Scottish hillside.

Terrible sleep. Unusually for me I couldn't get to sleep. Downstairs till 2.30 before finally getting to bed and asleep. Woke at 5.45. I will be snoozing later.

Today? I have to put the plans for restarting club rides to the committee for approval. Probably this is why I haven't slept. It's a lot of work and I'm always slightly nervous about such things even amongst friends. A bit like the night before a business pitch.

In other matters I'm looking for an ever decreasing circle to join. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

I don't know, there I am busily typing away while imagining you wandering the Scottish hills when in fact, like me, you're skulking around here.

Good morning people, slept through to six this morning, got the early call from my good lady and have now gone back to bed.
