The Retirement Thread

[classic33]

The trouble with test results it's "on the day" what happens the rest of the week.........month ect
it's like the MOT on the car valid for the day.

True enough.

I retired yesterday. Today is day two. The trouble with doing nothing all day is, you don’t know when you’re finished.

Welcome to the club, getting used to nothing all day takes some getting used to !

It takes a lot of practice to perfect!

I handle it by sticking to a strict weekly routine, otherwise I'd never get anything done.

You are retired, you are your own boss, you are finished when you want to be. No more rules, no more schedules, you just do whatever you want, whenever you want.

Well, that is the theory, there may be a higher authority in your house, to whom you must defer.

Congratulations on your retirement.

Tonight's dinner was jacket potato, beans and grated cheese, washed down with a beer, perfect.

I am part-time retired, does that qualify me to take part in this group, I do keep trying to go full time but it does not seem to work for me.

You need to get into Find It, Fix It, Flog it.

Different episodes on three or four different channels daily, you won't have time to work. I watch it on catch up cos I don't have a TV licence, so could spend all day perving over Gemma Longworth watching it.

That is what I do and get paid for though, find it fix, it and get paid for it, I really do enjoy fixing dents. I have cut my hours down to 4 days retired 3 days partly retired.

Odd that, I was going to put some chipolatas in the air fryer and the phone rang, by the time I got off the call the spud was done, so the chipolatas are still in the fridge, toad in the hole it is for them in the next few days.

I once caught my chipolata in the air fryer. Never again.
