The Retirement Thread

[Dave7]

Just found out Daughter #3's FiL died last night. Possible heart attack. A neighbour bravely tried CPR to no avail.

Nice guy, we got on well, and he thought the world of my lass, as I do his lad. Only 60, 2 1/2 years older than me. He seemed chipper and lively at his 60th Brithday party in July. I guess there'll be a funeral in the coming weeks.

WoW.....no age is it.

Good morning. It's a beautiful autumnal day in Lancashire. It's chilly though at 6⁰. I put the heating on, the boiler is flashing a fault and the reset button had no effect. I doubt it's serious, I just need to find the manual. This will take more time than I've got this morning.

Paul,
Could it just be that the pressure has dropped and the valve needs opening for a few seconds ??

And to top it all, the World Conker Championships in Northamptonshire has been cancelled due to the small size of the conkers this year ☹️

I is back.
Dentist can't see me till Thursday pm. TBF I am not in any pain, just have (what feels like) a crater where the filling was.
A beautiful day......while looking out from my lounge.
My flat/house extension thingy has always been colder than the main house. This means putting the heating on 1st thing on these cool mornings. It soon warms up though then is quite cozy.
I have a bird feeder station outside my patio door and I have just been watching a Nuthatch, a very handsome bird. It's very busy out there as there are also Bluetits, Great tits, LTTits and of course lots of Sparrows.

That might tide you over...

Watched a documentary on BBC iPlayer last night " Confessions of a Brain Surgeon ". I found it both moving and uplifting and certainly worth a watch.

Just checked the oil and all the fluid levels on the car, the only one needed was the screen wash
pumped up the tyres including the spare
