The Retirement Thread

[Mo1959]

I've just made a syrup cake as I had nothing to do, unlike you lot most of you have loads of things to do, I suppose it's down to owning your own home and having gardens ect

Nope, I’m still lazy and avoid doing stuff around the house and garden.

Neighbours both sides and across the road are all doing DIY or gardening. Tempted to stick ear plugs in and have a siesta!

My house is too big, my garden to big and I like it all kept tidy, I feel I am becoming a slave to it,

I have been shopping this morning and came back and tidied the garage, cut the lawns, now I have just walked into the drying room and found a pile of washing that needs ironing.

Ask Drago to come around, he seems to enjoy ironing

I can see that, I suppose if you have the finance you get someone in to do repairs and gardening, but the way they charge today you'll have to be well heeled.

Pizza today. The same pizza we were going to have yesterday before Mr WD pulled a fast one with the fish and chips in town 😆

And it's gone dull here as well.

The hanging baskets and tub are filling out nicely

I employed quite a few people from when I was twenty until I was 32, I then made a vow to myself never to employ anybody again on a permanent basis, I was the world's worst boss, I would get in before my staff and do their job for them, I would help them all day long and then work late into the night to do mine. If I employed a cleaner, I would put the vacuum around and tidy up before they arrived. I may have to consider a gardener and give in to myself.

Exciting news, the ironing is finished and I am off to the gym for a couple of hours. Enjoy your evening.

Salut. I am absolutely p***** off. The second part of the chest of drawers came early this afternoon so I started putting it together. To my disgust, on one panel, the holes don't line up !! I assume this one must have been made on a Monday morning although I can't see how it went wrong as they are drilled on a jig. Anyway, I emailed the firm and explained the problem and now wait for a reply which could take a few days.
I hope I get better luck when I start on the bed tomorrow.
