The Retirement Thread

[Dirk]

It took some effort, but I managed to get the screw cap off......

 

[screenman]

Well, this retiree is about to cook tea for my 5 year old retiree of the future.

That is work.

 

[Dirk]

That is work.

No invoices or payment involved......so, nah!

 

[Drago]

Lazy day today. Slept bad on my shoulder so no ride. Intend to chill, drink some Nespresso, watch the F1 and enjoy a long walk with Lemmy.

 

[Dirk]

Long walk on the beach with the JR terror, clean a couple of bikes, wash the car, spot of lunch, catch up on UCI World championships, then F1, cut the lawns, check over caravan, fix leaky tap and some lifting wallpaper.
Phew!

I'll be glad when this holiday weekend is over and I can get back to normal.

+1 for that

At Christmas the pubs are full of amateur boozes spoiling it for the regular drinkers.

At Easter the roads are full of cars blocking everywhere up and gangs of cyclist who are pretending they are professionals.

Is this p1ss soaked, lavender scented, blue rinsed thread still alive?

Unlike the main protagonists.........

Jealous? Moi?

 

[screenman]

Chilling.

 

[stephec]

This is turning into a mundane news/tea thread for the blue rinse brigade.

 

[Dirk]

Chilling.

Interloper.

 

[Drago]

I tell you Dirkie, the sooner these Workies are back down the pits and up the chimneys, and pushing bicycles laden with Hovis up step hills, the sooner we can have our thread back.

 

[hopless500]

300 exactly? Are you ticking them off daily?

Yes she is!

As you get older and deeper into retirement you may find that you can't perform the reverse screwing function any more - maybe time to start practicing knocking the top off on your doorstep (or similar)?

I'll use a vice and make an adapter for my cordless drill.
We have the technology.

Eeeee, the older generation, that's the spirit that saw us through the blitz.

You youngsters don't know you're born, in my day, blah blah blah.............
