The Retirement Thread

[Dave7]

Good morning all.
Just one thing to do (maybe two).......I have a 10.00 appointment for a blood test as my magnesium is still too low.
They take the blood at what is called the Jubilee centre and by coincidence my granddaughter has a Doctors appointment-----same place, same time. So she has a lift from granddad .

Good morning all.
A cloudy start to the day , but still quite warm.
MrsP wants to go up to Tring Reservoirs this morning. There is a nice cafe there on the towpath of the Grand Union canal, but unfortunately the pub we used to walk to, The Grand Junction Arms closed down last month.😪

Morning.
Glorious day. Club social ride today, going to be a warm one.
The family has returned so peace shattered although all still asleep.
Cats fed and the coffee is brewing.

I have risen!

I was going to go with Biggs 682 and PeteXXX to watch the balloons at the balloon festival, but that would have entailed a 0430hrs start and I'm still feeling fatigued from the TIA.

Soooo...... You were well advised to stay in your pit!
@biggs682 & I did indeed meet as planned; 06:00 @ Racecourse.
Shame the balloonists didn't get up to go floating as it's a bit too breezy for them to take off ☹️

Had a decent chat, though 😊

Good morning I'm hungry. I decided to have brunch; eggs, bacon, fried up cold potatoes, beans.....................the problem is I'm hungry......NOW!!

First home game of the season and I've never had less enthusiasm for football. #2 son needs me to take him, otherwise I'm not sure if I would bother. It's a strange sensation. I think we will get battered.

Other people's summer holidays are a busy time for me. For the next fortnight I have to feed and water one cat, two guinea pigs, three chickens, five tomato plants, one cucumber plant...........................and a partridge in a pear tree.................that's a pear tree

Once that's done I have stretches and weights to do followed by odds and ends before I pick my lad up for the footie. OK I'm off to feed the guinea pigs to the cat

Morning all

Another hot and dry day in the offing.
Need to head to the woods to cool down.
Might nip over to Horner.
