The Retirement Thread

Riverside trail walked. I was actually glad to get under the shade of the trees. It’s 22 degrees here and not much breeze.

Check what’s in the middle and report back!

There is nothing worth buying. Tomorrow is change day, and I did not check to see what specials they were changing, either.

I am just about to go for a swim at Jubilee Park, Woodhall Spa, if anyone wants to join me, they would be very welcome.

18.3kg our suitcase weighs. Not bad for two people for a week. I may not tell Mrs P........there's always the risk she'll want to add an extra 3 kg to hit the limit!! 🤣

Anyone know what plugs work in Croatia? Are they the same as standard European?

Weather couldnt have been better today and had a treat on my ride home from Golspie- 2 white tailed eagles being mobbed by 5 kites! it was quite a raptor party. They came quite close overhead at one point and i said 'hello eagles' hee hee i spose its because its not something i get to say very often

Good evening all.
Current I am on the train back from Cardiff to Paddington.
I have been over the border just for the hell if it. It's long time since I was last in Cardiff, and it has changed a lot.

According to Google, they use "Type F" plugs. Which, to be honest, means nothing to me.

We visited Croatia and Slovenia, some ten years or so ago, as I recall, our "normal" UK to EU plug adaptors worked.

Enjoy!

Standard European adapters are the ones for the job.

I'll be in Woodhall Spa next weekend but swimming isn't on the agenda!
