The Retirement Thread

Tonight I have paid good money to look at a large expanse of grass for 112 minutes........if I was brass monkey and I've been in big trouble.

A Brass Monkey wouldn't have been looking at field of grass.

Can't sleep.

Night night all .
I am not even in bed yet . I only start thinking about not being asleep if once it’s gets to about 3am, then I listen to radio for a bit and that normally does the trick.
I will be up at 8.15 how ever much sleep I get . I’ve always worked shifts and just don’t worry about sleeping or not sleeping . Think I’ve been quite lucky that way. 😀 Sometimes the more you worry about not sleeping, the less sleep you get.

Hope you all get the amount of sleep you need and see you all in the afternoon.

NHS has a 3 tier banded pricing structure. You are having Tier 3 treatment which is the highest band.

Your new top teeth should be matched to the natural colour of your bottom teeth - which they would be after a routine polish. This is usually included in the £26-ish, 6-monthly routine check up, scale & polish.

No one naturally has bright white teeth AFAIK.

Not even Jurgen Klop ????

Little known fact.
The Brass Monkeys in Chorley are a different breed to the average Ones and have a fetishism for fields of grass.
Google it, you will see that I am correct.
BTW, I wouldn't lie about such a serious question.

Yep, just drinking a big mug of decaf and browsing but I’ll head out for a wander soon.

Good morning all from a misty, murky Barnet.
A mate of mine is coming down so we can go for a walk with the dogs a little later on before we retire to the Mitre for an escape committee meeting at lunchtime.

Bit foggy here in the Northern Lowlands of Hamtun..
It was clear early yesterday evening for a good view of Mars, Castor & Pollux before the mist formed.

Morning all

Off to Bideford this afternoon to pick up the Bantam I've bought.
First time I'll have been back to North Devon since we moved two years ago. Will feel strange.

Good morning from a sunny but chilly Dorset. I forgot to mention that our Tuesday walking group usually go for coffee and a natter after our walk. Three of the ladies go to the Methodist Church hall ( Tea, Coffee, £1, includes biscuit ) a further two ladies go to the Turkish Cafe ( Coffee " reasuringly expensive " ) but the bulk pop into 'Spoons ( tea, coffee £1.25 unlimited free refills ). I almost always have a pint of one of the guest ales, on Tuesday I had a pint of Hobgoblin, it was on offer at £1.49 🍺👍
Off for a run soon, then will finally get round to insulating the loft hatch.

Bonjour from sunny, blue sky North Wales although the temperature is only 2 degrees. ( outside that is.).
Taking my daughter in law to physio at 9.30 and hair cut at 3 pm.
I ought to carry on with the decorating but we are baby sitting again till 3.30 so will leave it till tomorrow.
We are having new carpets fitted throughout the house on Monday so I need to finish all the painting before that.
