The Retirement Thread

[welsh dragon]

It seems far too pleasant in this section. Good humoured people being nice to each other. Have I come into the wrong forum this morning?

I have now been finished work for 6 years, and still loving being away from it.

Don't worry Mo. Taking the mick out of a certain person is always fun. Not mentioning any names mind you

I'm an equal opportunities mickey taker - everyone cops it!

My beard is now about 2" long and bushy enough to make Brian Blessed proud, so today I will bic my head.

Drago, even with my mincepie's I can see you have clocked that speedo, right dodgy geezer.

Just back from a swim and now off to spoons for guess what, then some seriour retail therapy.

I've got room in the car for 2 more.
We might make a day of it and lunch at Wetherspoons.

It's a good job you can't be prosecuted under the trades description act.

I decided to watch the film 'Logan' yesterday. I can report that it was a god awful film. I shall go back to reading my book today which is only marginally better, bur as i paid for it, i am going to dam well read it. It's the new Dan Brown book 'Origin'. I may be some time.

Taxi duties for a couple of week, the MIL is having radiation treatment at St James Hospital in Leeds so a 40 mile round trip everyday, I have been to Jimmies before when the eldest had trouble with his ears and when a Saturday night brawl in Leeds ended with me needing stitches to a cut above the eye, but I never realised the size of the place, its massive and finding a parking place is a nightmare, the good thing though, on production of MIL's appointment sheet, parking is free.

Cycling into town this morning to choose wallpaper for our guest bedroom.
We tend to set February aside for any odd jobs and decorating as it's usually the month when the weather limits our riding activity.
Missus has got a list as long as yer arm......

I have just slapped some proofide on my saddle. I will give it a good buffing later........after another cup of coffee and a chocolate Bourbon maybe.
