The Retirement Thread

[ebikeerwidnes]

Will struggle with the last one as I went to an all boys school.
And NO I didn't fancy any of them.

And was there not a girl from the nearest girl's school that .............

or one that lived nearby

I clearly remember one that seemed to like me but I was too shy and clueless to do anything about it

not even any idea of what her name was - but her twin sister was called Julie - fraternal twin as Julie was thick and "the other one" was intelligent and prettier

sigh

The girls school was maybe 1 mile away. I grew up so innocent/ignorant.

Have been for a walk, during which it turned surprisingly sunny.

Never seen one in real life.
Seen adders but never a slow worm.

We used to have loads of slow worms here. Fascinating creatures. Then we got the chickens and they eat everything abd anything they can get down their necks and they decimated the slow worms we now have very few. I can't remember the last time I saw one.

Well my kitchen is now finished. Very pleased with it all.

Same here. I’m just back. It was still feeling slightly chilly when I set out so put a fleece jacket on. The sun suddenly broke through and it got really warm. I was glad to get back in.

Dam right I would

Let us know when you intend to do this .Perhaps we could arrange a coach trip to see this momentous event.Perhaps arrange a tandem as an escape vehicle completely with an escape peddler🚵‍♂️

Been a busy day. Going to have a quick power nap.

I fell asleep. ZZZZzzzzz

I fell asleep. ZZZZzzzzz

I was desperate for a kip earlier but the kitchen fitter was here. Too late now but will need an early bed later.

Do any of you retirees suffer from lack of motivation? Every time I want to go for a ride, I find an excuse for not doing so. My last one was one week ago and I have only been out twice this month. I can't blame the weather as it is perfect at the moment. I don't have an indoor trainer like Mo so I have to go out. This month, I am 130 kms down on May last year with only 11 days to go. I must give myself a good kick up the a**e and take that bike out . I am a lone rider so can't rely on someone else to motivate me.

My get up and go has disappeared for a while now.

Is this in the right place?

What can I say accept I am a rebel

You could say I am sorry, it will never happen again.

Done walking, I saw a slow worm

Did it overtake you?
