The Retirement Thread

[Drago]

Was warm and sunny when me and Bruce went out at 0730hrs. Now it's biblically raining.

RIght - just time for a cuppa and then we're off

apparently we have to go the a hotel where SWMBO's son (I first met him when he was in his 30a - so calling him my step-son sounds wrong!) and his girlfriend will be getting married nest year

Apparently we have to go for an organised look around

no - I don;t understand either but apparently it is important

took several goes to find out what time we are supposed to be there as we only got "I think it is about" eveyr time we asked
finally got an answer this morning

sounds like something that people will be stressing about for no reason

I just hope the grand kids will be there and want attention and I can get away from what ever is going on!

Waste of good space that could be used for better things

in my opinion - which is worth naff all

but at least it stops people building on the place - which "they" want to do on one of the golf clubs near me
and another one - that hasn;t been used for many years as the ground as found to be poisoned - seems to be eaten up by solar farms (if that is the right term???)

Beautiful and well used here so definitely not a waste of space.

Been back out for a while. I’ll leave syncing the Garmin until later to see if I can nip into the lead and not get passed again. I’m not competitive, honestly!

I have just been and picked Pam's car up from my sons's where it has been since Christmas, that was a bit emotional, now I have to decide what to do with it, just seeing it outside on the drive is hard. Right now I best get cleaned up and off to see Dave, no doubt we will both update you later.

I repaired my microwave, I went into the kitchen and the microwave door was open, I closed it but it would not clip in place
I went and goggled, it is quite a common problem, there is a spring to keep the two laches down and the plastic clips that is at one ends breaks,
but it's an easy fix after removing the inner plastic frame there is a steel frame where you can hook it to I used a piece of steel wire and hooked it to the steel frame and the other end back onto the laches, all back together and all up and running.

If you ever get a chance to meet Dave7 in person do it, a great guy with a great family, thanks for the beer, coffee and grub guys.

You might wonder how I recognised him, we agreed before hand that he would have a pink carnation behind his left ear, to be honest it was not a colour that suited him.

P.S. Got there first Dave.

What did you use for Dave7 to recognise you?

To be honest - base don "another thread" I am getting a bit worried about Dave's dress sense overall!

Finished up with 180,000 steps for the week and a new pr for 45,200 in a day. I’ll either sleep like a log tonight or not manage to sleep for achy legs/feet
