The Retirement Thread

[Mo1959]

Good morning. Perfectly calm without a breath of wind and the sky looks clear. A ride is planned. There's a small amount of tidying up to do before the new summer house/shed arrives.

The sub-woofer on our sound bar isn't working. I must set up the new one we got "free" with the new telly.

Sub-woofer?? What? Eh? I have never understood what on earth a sub-woofer is.

Good for explosions in movies!

Well the wind has gone

and Traitors is over!!!

anyway - I'm up early due to back ache - woke up at 5 something but couldn;t get back to sleep as every time I rolled over I got a pain
I would drift off - then move and wake up again

gave up about an hour ago and got up to have some ibuprofen and hope it calms down and I can go back

maybe

Good day to all.
Paulus, enjoy your break.
No real plans today. Daughter and SiL are back from a short sunshine break so will catch up on that, I actually enjoy people's holiday stories (am I weird?).

Very.

Do they ask you for proof of age, WD?

I think I'm long past that.

 

[welsh dragon]

Morning all

Clear blue skies and no wind at the moment. Forecast is good for the rest of the day. Might venture out somewhere nice.
Neighbour's just had 2 wheel bearings done on his ancient Peugeot 106 - £384! That's more than the cars worth. I could get a pair of bearings for less than 30 quid, so they must have charged £350+ for labour ... and it's a back street garage. What a rip off!

I refuse to you self scanner check outs and the hand held one
When they start paying me to do their job I may change my mind

Couldn't agree more.

As I understand it, a woofer goes woof woof, a sub woofer only goes woof.

You could be correct as I am not very technical.

Morning bloody cold here

 

[Drago]

Frosty here in Poshshire.

You feel really ancient when the barmaid offers to carry your drinks back to your table. DAMHIKT😮

I’d feel more ancient if she offered to carry me back to my table.Probably enjoy 😊 it though.

 

[Drago]

Oh dear. I've got the morning after pizza farts.

 

[Mo1959]

4.5 mile wander done. I’ve had more pleasant ones. Started and ended in sleety rain and the trail was puddly and covered in small branches and twigs but no actual trees down apart from one on the other side of the river.

Somewhere there's a jackhammer nibbling away at the ground.
