The Retirement Thread

I have risen!

Good morning all.
It is drizzling at the moment, although the forecast didn't mention the possibility of it.
Dog walking shortly, then a gardening day, just tidying up..
I'm also hopeful of getting out on the bike later on for a while.
Sounds like a plan for today.

9 mile walk done. Weather was a bit weird. Went out at 5 and it was glorious, then it clouded over for an hour, then the sun came back out and blue skies and now it’s cloudy again. Wish it would make up its mind.

Up and out early on the bikes, over to Malvern this morning with a few pals, quick caffeine hit in Moreton in Marsh, sun has also just come out.

Morning all

Sold the two strimmers I picked up for free yesterday. 80 quid in my pocket.
Got 3 more in the workshop to tinker with. Keeps me busy and prevents useful stuff being dumped at the tip. How green is that?!

To be honest when I saw the original photo I thought " Dirk's a Detectorist " 😎 took a while for the penny to drop that they were strimmers 😁

Good day. It should be raining. It isn't. Yeah! Mrs P is asleep. She was awake at 2.00, 5.15, 6.00 to my knowledge. We have family coming for lunch as it's #1 son's 38th birthday tomorrow.......how did that happen?

So. I have one working leg and one working hand. I'm now going to attempt getting on with stuff that needs doing. We shall see. To be honest I've done bugger all for the last month, time to make the effort.

I have just had my 1st ever bed bath, quite good.
1st time I have ever had my bollox washed by a black guy from Ghana

At least it will make sure you don't try to make saucy jokes to the nurses, oooh, then again....

Was it a pleasurable experience? 😉

The same here, bed by eleven ish and awake for 5am. I do not do the TV watching bit, a little to painful at the moment.

Early to bed early to rise makes a man healthy wealthy. and wise..Too avoid being sexist applys to the ladies to.
What a load of old rhubarb

Very true . It’s always worrying when a regular goes quiet for a few pages. 😀

To be honest I still miss Dave R imput to this thread too .☹️

I also miss his posts
