The Retirement Thread

[Drago]

Its 20hrs P/W as a railway ticket fraud inspector villain catchy person. Money is a bit crap and wouldn't be a decent crack full time, but as something to give me a bit of purpose, structure and cocaine money it should do.

Nice uniform, authority, petty fascism...right up my street.

In that case I am not working.

You say that you provide a service.
You say you earn money.
If you are invoicing and receiving payment for the services you provide then there must legally be a contractual agreement between yourself and your customer.
If any such arrangement exists I'm not too sure HMRC would accept your definition of 'not working'.

Humpty Dumpy would have been proud of you.

You should respect my diversity Dirkie.

Nah! Stopped respecting anything once my livelihood didn't depend on it.
Diversified to death at w***.

Right, just going to finish this Nespresso then I'll be up to the Forest for a quick lap before the off duty Workies get up there.

 

[Dirk]

Suppose I better get up.
Got to get a few comestibles from Tesco. Waste of time trying to fight my way through the Grockles in the car, so shopping on the bike it is.
Might extend the route a bit - only need another 12.4 miles to make the 100 for this week.
Very busy down here. Constant stream of caravans, motorhomes and campers yesterday. Traffic backed up on main road through village for some distance. Weather looks set fair for the weekend - so I'll be avoiding the beaches and the Tarka Trail.

This caravan was moved on Thursday and will move again, one day.

Flaming Workies cluttering up then forest trails. Why aren't they up the chimneys earning their gruel?

I guess a few minutes a year cluttering up the landscape with their wally wagons, pooing into a bucket of chemicals, takes their minds of the mindless drudgery of their work ruled existence

Not heard the term Grockles since I worked at the Royal Devon and Exeter back in a the early 80's. . Seem to remember they were called Emmets or something similar?
