The Retirement Thread

[Flick of the Elbow]

Good morning, a bit dull but still warm, another day of 20° forecast.

I didn't watch it. I haven't watched the rubbish for 30 years.

It's about time it was dropped for good.

We’ve just had a cheese and onion omelette for breakfast.
It may, or may not interest you to know, as the fancy takes you, that the onion was home grown.
We also had juice and coffee.

Out on the motorbikes this morning, about five of us meeting up for breakfast.

It's def cooler than it has been and it's a tad overcast as well.

I see from the news that the UK effort on the euro vision came last.

I wonder how much we paid for that embarrassment ( the loss and the performer) .

Going to enjoy my coffee, tidy up, then I've half hoir of parish council emails to get through then I want to do some work on the Volvo.

Years ago it was enjoyable but not now. "Dross" is putting it mildly. I didn't bother switching it on.

Actors and their stunt doubles.

Morning all. I just woke up, it's a bit of a lie in today.
Bright and sunny outside.
Did anyone see the Northern lights again last night? We stayed up for a while to see if they put on a show but didn't see them.
I'm going to clean the carpets again today, they were really dirty when I did them a few weeks back, and once they dried off the still looked a little grubby.
My twit of a next door neighbour called yesterday afternoon to ask if I could repair his punctures. He thought animals might of had a go at his bikes! Got one done yesterday evening it was a Thorn causing the puncture so that was the problem there, the other piece of scrap he has got seems to be the valve not holding the air. So I will replace the tube on that one. I think he gets these bike out of skips, generally the frames are as heavy as could be, the tyres are shot to pieces and he doesn't know the first thing about maintaining or repairing them, and won't use the LBS because they would cost him money.

Fix a puncture for him and you allow him to go for a ride on the bike.
Teach him how to fix the puncture and you allow him to go for a lifetime of rides on his bike.
