The Retirement Thread

[BoldonLad]

Back from thr surgeon.

It's not the big C, thankfully.

It's something else, although at present not quite enough to justify the risk of operating on. Pain relief, more supportive underwear (no more Y fronts!) and rest (chance would be a fine thing.)

Best wishes and Good Luck

Thanks Mr Lad. I thought I'd remained pretty chilled but still got the shakes when he told me it wasn't the Big C.

It's still moderately serious, but manageable for now with a clear route forward in the event that it worsens, but it's not at all likely to end me.

Good news!

Luckily being in the middle of nowhere and it being sheep farming land as well, we don't tend to get firework displays around here. We hear the occasional whizz bang and that's about it.

I used to live near Welsh sheep farming territory

They had other activities around this time of year up in the hills

there were always strange arrangements of sheep bones around the rocks if you got well away from the tourists places


and not all of them were teenagers messing around!!!
(although some were!!)

I've never heard of anything like that

I've never heard of anything like that

Probably couldn't hear a thing over the sound of all the BBBAAAAAAAAAAAAAA's!

I've never heard of anything like that

Maybe depends on the area - this was Bangor - so quite close to Druid country

and when I was training to teach some of the Welsh people mentioned "activities in the hills that maybe we shouldn;t mention"

no idea what they were going on about - but I heard it mentioned several times over the years

They never invited you to take part in these activities?
