The Retirement Thread

[Mo1959]

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

Maybe it’s your turn for a lazy day……it’s allowed.

Thank you Mo, not something I am very good at though. I am up shaved and showered so moving in the right direction now, still no plans, which is extremely odd for me, I think I have run out of positive energy.

Just tried to book a dental check up but my dentist has retired due to ill health. The practice assured me I would be kept on the NHS list and will be in touch when they get a replacement. I really don’t want to start paying for private care if I can help it.

I have been back to bed for a 90 minute kip.......think I feel better now but not sure.

Morning everyone from a very damp Coventry.
Not really got any plans today other than a trip to the supermarket , no volunteering sessions today , no gardening ( too wet ) and no cycling to day either ( too wet ) . If not that I have a problem cycling in the wet, I don’t . It’s just I hate bike cleaning afterwards 😀.

Anyway, the bike ride yesterday went well. It was only 16 miles but at least I got out there.
Below is a picture which could explain why my weight loss is not going as quickly as it could . 😂

Got a 5 mile walk done. It’s getting very overcast now and the wind is picking up. Think I might be done for the day.

Not sure I fancy the cycling as it’s a flat stage so might try and catch the last few miles.

Yeah, but what one, still raining quite hard now.
Cottage pie for lunch made with Moo Cow.

The rain has stopped and its brightened up here.

I'm not very hungry today so I'm having sausage and egg for lunch

I nearly had that too, but changed my mind and just had a tin of tomato and rice soup with bread.

Picked up another free lawnmower yesterday.
Had to dig it out of a hedge where it had been dumped about 18 months ago.
An hours fettling and it's starting and running well.
Quick pressure wash and put it on Facebook for £30 - sold within 5 minutes!
Well....that's paid for Fish Friday.

I have spent the morning in my office chasing paperwork around the desk; I am very pleased with what I have achieved. I have eaten half a kilo of Ikea biscuits since Sunday, but now they are all gone I will not be eating any more of that tin.

They are currently excavating the largest known dinosaur tibia to date.
Apparently it’s a real shin-dig.
