The Retirement Thread

[Dave7]

My daughter and granddaughter have just put a Christmas tree up for me.

Mine will go up on Christmas eve while I mumble "humbug" under my breath.

 

[Flick of the Elbow]

None?!
Are you sure?
Yet must be able to do some practical stuff.

Nope, not at all. I’m not bad at recognising birds from their calls and songs if that counts at all. And I have elementary map and compass understanding.

No doubt you will have a pair of Y fronts hanging from the top

Why have you got a pig under the tree?

Born 1964, I have no mechanical or practical skills whatsoever. Most of my working life was spent on the phone looking at spreadsheets.

I was similar, in my working life (Software Development), but, developed my “ I can fix this “ attitude in childhood / youth. A bit a necessity helped 😊

Why have you got a pig under the tree?

It was Sue's money box pig. She always said she felt it was staring at her.
I quite like it.

Neither do I. Haven’t put a tree up for 28 years.
