The Retirement Thread

[Dave7]

Good morning all.
A reasonable sleep. Wish it wasn't broken by pee breaks but I think I have to live with them as I am drinking a lot.

Did anyone see the Harvet Moon ? We had too much thick cloud. I had a look while up for said pee breaks but nowt but cloud.

I ordered a phone plus charger on Sunday. Charger came .onday morning, brill service.
Problem is there is no sign of the phone

I have risen! Still feeling rough.

Does sound very covid-like.
Take it easy.
Off to the smoke today - a wander, some beers with old pals and a vegan dinner with the city-based offspring, should be a fine day out 😎 Wondering whether face masks are a sensible idea…..mind you, it would only be useful for the train, I guess, so probably won’t 🤷‍♂️

I'm presently baking a couple of light fruit cakes (as we're still on night time leccy).
I did offer MrsPete a lick of the whisk but, apparently, it's a bit early for that.. 🤷‍♂️

Good morning all.
A grey, cool start to the day here.
Today I am off to Nuneaton on the rrain with a couple of friends. One of them has a bit of business to do there, I am just along for the ride.

Yes, saw the moon rising. It was magnificent.

Why do you cross post these items?

7.4 mile wander done and home just as the daylight was arriving. So peaceful getting out early. Saw a couple of owls sitting next to the road and I usually see three feral kittens along that road too. I say kittens, I think they must be about 6 months old now from when I first saw them. I speak to them but they keep their distance. Obviously not had any human contact. They seem to be healthy and fending for themselves no problem, but I can't help feeling a bit sorry for them. I just hope they stay clear of the road when there's vehicles about.

Why not? We don't all follow the same threads.

The harvest moon lit the bedroom up last evening and the wood burner kept it toasty on the boat.

What are you doing, looking our moon ?

 

[Mo1959]

Off topic?

Where? In here? I think pretty much anything goes apart from the usual politics, religion, etc.

This is the lady I visited in the care home last week. They took them to the 10 pin bowling. Doesn’t she look well for 92.
