The Retirement Thread

[Paulus]

Good morning all.
I awoke to the sound of heavy rain beating on my bedroom window.
Today is a house tidying and domestics day. MrsP has invited one of her friends around for dinner this evening. Normally I do all the cooking, but tonight is MrsP's turn.

Morning. Overcast start again but we might get a little sun by afternoon. It’s turning much colder end of next week. I can see the heating going on earlier this year. At least I’ve built up a good credit so don’t need to worry too much about the bills.

The same here, I've reduced the payments the last couple of months and according to Martin Lewis I probably have too much credit sitting there, but all should be well, even with the coming increases in energy prices.

Good morning, a hacking cough woke me early so I came downstairs for some cough medicine and lay on the sofa for a while. Up now and entertaining granddaughter, we have her for a couple of days while her mum recovers from Covid.

Same here, have built up a credit of several hundred over the summer with the Solar and battery. On target to either break even or make a small profit this year.

Morning all

More touristy things to do today with my cousin and his wife.
Might go to Cleeve Abbey.

Massive listeners to music here and also fans of all things dance too.

Morning!

Cool, windy and overcast - no rain though.

Mixed bag week here:

Daughter secured her dream job this week complete with whopping rise. Global luxury cosmetics business - she is absolutely buzzing. Me, I am very proud as she beat a large field of other candidates for the role.

Grandson secured great job to train as a lift repair engineer - will take him 3 years. He is chuffed to bits. About time he got into gear tbh so I am very pleased.

Flipside - we have found out that one of our friends has a very nasty cancer to deal with.

Life - peaks & troughs!

Have a good day all.

Have you tested, it is all over the country again now.

Morning all, woke up late as usual to find the burglar alarm is making a noise outside, I tried everything to get it to stop, the only way it will is if I have it alarmed with all zones off, very odd.

That is very odd!

Maybe time to scrap the system and get an XL Bully instead? Much more reliable.

If you think I am moving Drgao in, no way.

That would be excessive
there is probably a group of psychotic Lions available that would be a less extreme guard system
