The Retirement Thread

[Drago]

I've eaten what would have been a nice picnic lunch in the van today. Egg may rolls, pork pie, scotch egg, crisps.

We have thunder here. I wasn’t expecting that. Looks like it might be a spin on the Wattbike rather than go back out.

Probably my entire calorific intake for the day, there.

Expect a windy afternoon/evening in poshshire after all those eggs.😳

Quick bimble to the Air Ambulance charity shop to drop off a few things plus back home a longer way round before it started raining again 🚲

5 bar gate sorted - got a nice even 1 cm gap down the centre. so they swing open freely.
Whilst out in the garden I heard a lot of croaking from the pond. Went to investigate and saw at least a dozen frogs in there that weren't there yesterday. Where did they come from?!

Had to go to the Pharmacy to get some stuff this morning

On the way back I walked (still not allowed to drive!!) past the old Bus Garage - it has been abandoned for years ever since the local LA bus compnay folded
apparently it has the largest single span roof of any bus garage in the country - or was it Europe???
just thought you might "like" to know that


Anyway - I noticed that one of the ground level boarded up windows had been pulled off and the window behind was open - probably broken
so anyone reasonably fit could climb up and get in
and then do whatever

Anyway - I decided to be a good little boy and report it to the Police

so I went onto the web site and all seemed well
until I started to report it

I had to locate the place on a map THREE time - no idea why
I had to give details of the victim - didn;t know what to do so I just gave the details of the building
obviously I had to give my details

but in the end I must have gone through 10-15 screens of fields to type in

when all it needed was 1 sentence plus who I am

no wonder people give up and don;t bother!!

Did you not have to give an undertaking to appear in court and give evidence, in the event of a prosecution, and, provide dates when you would be available to do so?, if not, think yourself lucky you do not live in Northumbria Police District 🙂

Mrs D has gone out on a girls night so a pizza delivery for me and Mini D is in our near futures.

Apart from a stinking cold I have another problem

for the last few months I have not really had much exercise
I was either ill, busy or banned from going out on my bike as it was freezing and my wife doesn;t think ice cold air into a headwind it all that much good for asthma

anyway - as i have not been able to drive for a few weeks I have been walking to the shops
and since my bike was freed from prision when the landscapers left - cycling to places at time

and my legs are complaining
they are fine at walking
they are fine at cycling

but they are moaning and asking me to make up my damn mind so they can decide which muscles are supposed to be getting fitter!!
in the meantime - they are all aching

Pizza was nice. A half slice may have fallen in Bruce's tummy. He thanks me now, but won't be so chuffed when I reduce the size of his next meal to compensate!

You cruel heartless man!!!

he is a growing doggie and needs his dinner
(and being a lab - anything else he can get hold of I presume!!)

 

[Drago]

I got great praise from the vet as Bruce is one of the few adult labs he sees that isn't overweight. I take great care with his diet and exercise.

The pain will disappear, in time.
