The Retirement Thread

[Drago]

Off to Devon tomorrow for a few days. Not taking the bike though but taking 6 year old grandson.

How many miles a day do you manage on him?

Cycling in to Barnstaple this morning.
Eyesight test at Specsavers followed by a trip to the dentist for a filling.
Should be a fun filled morning.....

If your eyes are bad and you cant read the Specsavers sign......its the one next to Boots

Morning campers.
A soggy day here (must change my Y fronts).
I have time for some light exercises, some toast, then off to golf.

Morning all, brightish here at the moment. Just having my toast and marmalade and a mug of tea then it is out over the fields with the dog, and then finish off painting the back bedroom walls and then that room is done. MrsP has plans for me to do the hallway next.

Best wishes @PaulSB. Hope all goes well.

Cold, grey and blowing a hooley here - not what we wanted for our first motorhome trip. Fridge chilling down off the mains (a tip from @Dirk) ready to be filled with beer and prosecco.

We'll be about 70 miles from home so it would have been a good opportunity for me to ride there but Mrs. jg seems reluctant to drive the van that far on her own. Don't know why as this was all her idea in the first place. Looks like
I'll becoming a chauffeur in retirement.

You beat me to it Paul. Good morning folks. A dull start, but tomorrow we should have nice weather.

Didn't someone say

Looking at the weather forcast on Country File looks like we are in for some really nice weather next week especially after Tuesday. Wooohooo. Bring it on.

Good Day! Thank you all for the kind comments and messages. Very much appreciated.

Yesterday was my best to date, a little tired in the afternoon - 90 minutes nap* - but didn't need to go bed till 10.45pm.

* It took Mrs P nearly an hour to convince me it was still Tuesday.

Several visitors expected today and I'm really happy to know how many club members care enough to drop in etc.

Glad to hear that, it's nice of your friends to come round and see you
Have a few more naps aswell

I have returned. Very exciting it was as well i can tell you. I used the New by-pass. Doesn't get any more exciting than that does it. . And it is raining now. So that is me for the rest of the day. Fire started, and i am going to watch Sheltand what i recorded last night.
