The Retirement Thread

[PaulSB]

Good morning everyone. Dull and grey here and that's just after looking in the mirror. This morning will be taken up with the insurance claim for my car and bike. Hopefully completed before my friend Abby arrives to check it through! It's looking like an expensive one!

Many thanks for all the remarks re making a claim

Mornin' all.
Yay! It's Fish Friday!
Think my missus has got a gippy tummy though; either that, or she's taken to playing a trombone full of wet cement in the bathroom.......

Friday!!!!! Bugger

I thought it was Saturday. Since my skirmish with the pavement etc. I can get the date and time right but not the day!

Don't worry. Mr WD is lucky to get the month right let alone the day or date.

Morning all, weather here is the same as Welshie's, dull and damp. Out with the dog shortly and then some shopping for essentials, toilet rolls ect, and then to the pub for a couple. I shall be cooking a curry for myself tonight as MrsP is out with ex work friends and then settle down to watch the track cycling and the Dr Alice prog that I recorded last night.

Morning all, swim done and now for some serious laminate floor laying, gym tonight and the sky is grey but I am going to ignore it and look on the bright side.

Morning all,
then some shopping for essentials, toilet rolls ect, .

Toilet rolls are not essentials. Yesterdays football echo is quite good enough

Dog walked, house tidied, very light arms back and chest session (no co paints from my shoulder) and just catching g my breath with a Clooney's before having a shower.

 

[welsh dragon]

I am thinking (just thinking mind you) of cleaning the oven....

 

[Drago]

I pat some geezer to do that every year.

Good moaning all. A good sleep was had last night..... as per normal, head on pillow and zzzz.
Coffee drunk (with a slug of Jamesons for flavour ).
Was hoping for a ride but weather is a bit grim so may settle for exercise bike and weights etc**
**have you noticed that as you get older it is easier to "lose it" when you dont use it? I am no body builder but used to do 30/40 press up each morning. Having not done them for maybe 2 years I decided to build them into my daily workout. Blimey, I just managed 3 . After 4 weeks I am up to 25 (thats a 15 & a 10). I am also up to 300 situps using a roller.
I know age or dry rot gets us all but you have to keep trying.
Aside from "him who wears manky Y fronts" what do others do?

 

[Dave7]

I pat some geezer to do that every year.

And us, every 2 years(ish). Costs a few bob but well worth it ino.
