The Retirement Thread

Smacked my good elbow on the windowsill. Made me turn the air blue. Now have a big bruise and it's swollen. FFS.

You wait to you get our age, things hurt before you even wake up in the morning.

Always hurts when you hit the funny bone, although it's not funny.🥺

Not always. I am 73 and , touch wood, nothing hurts. Still in my prime ( so I keep telling myself).

You must have had an easy paper round then. I think genes and luck play a big part in what you end up with.

I have had a tough day today, so here I am hoping for an easier one tomorrow, night all.

Good morning all.
Not really good as it's p*ssing down and so dark I have the lights on.
Had a pleasant couple of days at my sons pub with daughter and SiL. Met up with Screenman and we had a pleasant evening.
Have a good day all.

Morning all, it is raining extremely hard today in not sunny Bardney. I have nothing planned and will just take what the day gives me.

Good morning all, a sunny start but rain due by lunchtime.

Good morning all.
A cloudy, grey start to the day here in Barnet. Rain is on its way later on this morning.
Sainsbury's are delivering the weekly goodies, mostly fruit and cleaning products this week, but they had an offer on wine. 25% off if you buy 3 bottles, fortunately some of my favourite reds were included. 🍷🍷🍷

Morning. A bit overcast but dry here. The rain is due to arrive here this afternoon.

I got out for a 22 mile bimble. It was only my 5th ride of the year. Just a few years ago it would probably have been my 50th! Amazing how you can fall away from something like that. Quite enjoyed it though as the roads were quietish going early and anyone that did pass was careful.

Morning all

Had a lot of rain overnight but it looks like it's stopped now.
Still.....the gardens need it.
Got to book the CRV in for its MoT today.
Apart from that, there's not much happening here.
Next week will be busy when we've got our six best mates all staying for four nights.

I am still in bed, unusual for me as I am normally up and about early, a lack of enthusiasm is to blame.
