The Retirement Thread

[Mike Ayling]

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.

Get rid of that iron.!

Sat in conservatory now listening to "tracks of my years' with Tim Booth of the group James.....very interesting

Coooooeee. A chilly start of 7 drg, but bright and sunny so I think it's another nice day for us.

I'll be making a lamb casserole later.

Said before I like lamb slow cooked so the fat melts away.

Good morning all.
The sun is shining and the sky is a clear blue.
The washing machine is already doing it's stuff.
A few things to do today, the usual dog walk, it looks like a good day to cut the grass a bit later on and our daughter is calling in. She is dropping off one of her suitcases for us to look after, whilst picking up an empty case, for her wedding dress and other parafanalia ready for the big day in under two weeks time.
I must make a start on my Father of the bride speech. I have quite a few ideas but I must start writing them down.

I use chatgpt to give me a start and then tweak it to suit, it has really made writing things easier for me and saved a lot of time.

Morning. I was up, quick cuppa and out the door at 5am and had a 25 mile spin. Reasonably enjoyable, but I’m not loving the cycling the way I used to. I think I would rather have been running.

I just went up through Comrie and St Fillans and stopped at the foot of Loch Earn to admire the view and have a drink before returning.

I'm up ....just

Morning all

Nice day in prospect. Some gardening to do, some tinkering in my workshop and the Superbike TT to watch.
Not going out for lunch today as the racing is on.

Of course as a fairly recent retired you still have plenty of spare time.

 

[Drago]

I have risen!

Knackered from last nights gig. Bunch of piss heads.

Casserole is now in the slow cooker along with potatoes, carrots abd onions with lamb stock cubes.

I forgot it earlier, it wasn't until Mr WD got up that I remembered it.

Good man, as once you stop ironing your repect for yourself goes down
