The Retirement Thread

Coooeeee. 10 deg and a misty start here but it's going to be another nice day I think.

Pottering is planned. I should pick up Mr Wd tablets from the quacks but it's market day in Mach so I won't bother.

Stay safe peeps

I'm shocked Welshie😮 that the long suffering Mr Wd is having to wait for his meds, it's a good job that us men are such stoics when it comes to pain and ailments!

Morning all, just woken up here, the blinds are still down so I have no idea what the weather's like. Clothes shopping for me today, I have lost two and a half stone over the last few months, so everything I own apart from shoes, socks and ties is too big for me. Enjoy your day.

I really don't know....you may well be right.

Nurofen is just a brand name. The active ingredient is Ibroprofen. You can buy ibroprofen tablets for a fraction of the price of nurofen. You can also get ibroprofen gel to rub into affected joints or muscles.

It's suddenly got very misty out there. Some people would call it foggy. Once it burns off it should be a nice day.

Just done a slow 3 mile jog with Bruce. Already very humid feeling, hoping that means a warm day ahoy.

Does he not mind you riding on his back?

I really should get out of bed, you guys are making me feel guilty.

Morning all

Water butt to install in MrsD's 'bird garden' this morning and I've got to jet wash the decking.
Going for a 'dash & splash' on the train to the Quantock Brewery at lunchtime.

He gets a string of sausages to eat at the end, so he puts up with it.

Have you tried Wet and Forget, brilliant product Lidl sell one that might be even better.

I have lost two and a half stone over the last few months,

What’s your secret? I seem to lose a couple of pounds then keep putting it back on again. I really need to lose a stone minimum to feel good.

I just had a wander round the park since I will be going back out in a couple of hours, then nipped along to Aldi for a couple of things while it was quiet.

Porridge and blueberries time now.

Good morning all, cloudy but a scorching 13° here and set to rise even higher. This has been the first morning of the year without putting on the CH. Will celebrate with a bike ride.

Peloton done, dogs walked, breakfast consumed. Shorts and t shirt weather today.

Surprised to read just now that there are 47 mechanical signalling boxes still in use on the Scottish rail network, the sort with the big mechanical levers that you normally see TV presenters trying out on heritage lines. And not just in the north of Scotland, the biggest is in Stirling. And they are not planning on replacing them any time soon, plans just published aim to reduce the number to 10-12 over the next 20 years.
