The Retirement Thread

[welsh dragon]

I have painted another section of ceiling that's 2 down and 1 to go. I'm well over this painting lark.

You might be over it but haven't finished it.

You might be over it but haven't finished it.

Don't remind me. It's the ceiling, maybe if I don't look up I can pretend I don't need to do it.

I can hear bagpipes. Must be playing over at the graveyard for a funeral.

We had the grand kids overnight again

I am beginning to think we have adopted them!

Anyway - took them for a walk in "The Deep Dark Wood" (Spike Island for those that know the area)

and half way back through the woods the little one wanted a wee - he is just out of nappies

anyway - his Mum and Dad are a bit "Oh you have to do that in a proper toilet"
and his other gran is even worse


so it is down to me to introduce the fine art of weeing in the woods

anyway - I found a sheltered spot and he happily weed over all the nearby nettles with great accuracy!!


so proud!!


(for the Ladies - it's a man thing - you may have noticed!)

I'm pleased to say I should hopefully be joining this thread properly in April. Huzzah!

I'll be droning on about life on a narrowboat, writing, photography and trips on the cycle mainly I suspect.

Do you live on it full time?

 

[Oldhippy]

Yes when it is finished.

 

[Mo1959]

Seems like a sensible budget. I can go for a wander now.

You should fit in!

How much are you selling your knee for. You might get some offers if it's reasonable.

I'll do a swap with anyone who's interested.........you might need weekly physio at £60 a go for a few more weeks......

 

[PaulSB]

I want to know how he'd be able to arrange a viewing. Pictures can be so misleading at times.

No. No. No. You really don't want to see images of my knee......even now, 19 weeks on, it's still not a pretty sight.

Anyone expecting their pips to be squeaked today?
