The Retirement Thread

[screenman]

It is not a good idea to try and attend a coffee afternoon in the local church when it involves walking through the graveyard. I bottled it at the door and walked off. Now, if the door had been open, it might have been slightly easier to go in, the organisers missed out there.

It were a local one then.

Yes.... we don't allow any of them foreign Robins here. Coming in, stealing our bird seed.....no way.

Great news.

My daughter has got me a supply of Fortisip (energy drink). If I can just stop upchucking bile I will have one of them.

she passed all the exams - mostly at "Higher than expected"

so we took her climbing as usual today and then we are about to take her to a local place for "tea" as a reward

well - when I say "we" took her climbing
SWMBO is out of action for the weekend because 2 girls are bashing a fluffy ball around a lawn this afternoon (just finished) so I had to take her on my own

and tomorrow 2 blokes are doing the same
and then 22 other bloke are chasing a leather bag full of wind around a field for a while

so she is staying in all weekend except for tea this evening

(she doesn;t want to watch the cycling - thinks the Ladies Final is more important
the things I have to put up with!!!!!)

• Headache
• Muscle aches
• Difficulty breathing

• New loss of taste or smell
• "Brain fog" (feeling less wakeful and aware)

Entitled little beggars aren't they.
Here's my bottomless food bucket from a few moments ago.

Looking through the kitchen window from the end of the outhouse gutter - works (nearly) every time, soft-hearted fool that I am.

Edit: I thought Bardney folk always leave the door open? Are you not from round these parts?

Robin has watched and learnt; this pic was from a couple of minutes ago.

And yes, s/he did get some suet pellets.

I have not got a clue where you are, but is there anything you need?

I've changed the name of my Ring doorbell.

If anyone visits now the notification says, "There is someone at your Anus."

How long before Mrs D notices and I get a good thrashing?

And she's noticed. She rolled her eyes and tutted, but I'm still here.
