The Retirement Thread

[screenman]

Should UPS have dropped a parcel off to you?

I'd rest awhile, too much thinking early in the day has been proven to make you tired earlier in the evening.

Yes on the UPS bit, they deliver most weeks. I will take on board your advice on the resting bit, once I have done the housework, fixed some dents, been shopping. been out on the bike and been for a swim. Have great day.

I'm not well again I even have a temperature of 101, last night I had bouts of shivering and hot sweats and had a weird dream
I was trying to find Graham Hill in the fog before he crashed........crazy.

Bonjour. Hard labour for me this morning. We have a 15 square meters lawn at the front of the house and we want to remove it and cover the area with slate to match the parking space for the car. That will give us parking for 3 vehicles for visitors and no more lawn cutting either. I have done half of it and that's it for today.
Had a shower, going to have lunch shortly and then settle down for the TdF later.

I had another 3 mile walk before lunch. Had a couple of slices of lorne sausage to use up so had that with some scrambled egg.

It’s getting warm now so I might just stay indoors this afternoon.

I was quite surprised when I checked the fly by on Strava and saw that a cyclist I passed was the son in law of my old neighbours. He isn’t from this area but must be through here for some reason. Small world.

Hope you're feeling better sooner than later, and should you go looking, you find what you're looking for.

One reason why we bought a house with a long drive - at a squeeze we can get 6 in a row on it.

Good luck with your project!

I would like a house with a shorter drive, two ton of gravel needed each year just to keep it looking tidy. I could not say how many it could fit in, too many is my view. I promised my sons I would not put the house on the market for a year, I am counting the days down.

Come to think about it, where does the gravel go?

I have two baby seagulls on my garage roof and it is driving Molly mad.

I am off out for a swim, may even do my fortnightly visit to my much older brother, have great Friday evening everyone, the weekend starts now, not that it makes any difference to us.

You're simply returning it to whence it came. Two tons a year isn't much when you consider the size of the earth.
