The Retirement Thread

[Gunk]

Good morning from Leeds which I'm led to believe is " Gods own country "
Hotel is lovely, it's a Premier inn opposite Leeds Arena. Had a wander round last night and everywhere was buzzing. Today's task is to get some cheese, daughter got some from the cheese shop in Chapel Allerton yesterday. It was " reassuringly expensive " 😮 so we're heading to the market this morning. As it's Christmas we're planning on getting some Babybell, or " sweet baby cheeses " 😁

I know that part of Leeds well, my son is at university there.

It’s a great city.

Blimey another one.
At this rate there'll be more offcumdens than true Tykes in Leeds before long

We stayed in the Travelodge 3 - 4 minutes away when we went to see Dylan. Loved the area. Very vibrant.

Right thats the last of the whisky in the house


I am not depending on my wife's son to replenish it on Christmas Day

He's a good lad - just hope he doesn;t let me down!!

Just finished watching "Say Nothing"

WOW

what a series - about Northern Island and "The Troubles" from the POV of people actually in the IRA

Absolutely brilliant production directions and the acting was even better

North East wind here on the river, wind turbine whizzing around, stoves on and hit hot coffee in bed. Looks chilly outside.

Good morning all..
All the usual last minthings to do, and then I'll be off to the Mitre at lunchtime for an escape committee mini meeting. MrsP has a couple of friends coming round at lunchtime so I am making my escape for a couple of hours.
I must remember to get the turkey and beef out of the freezer this afternoon.

Good morning from Leeds, other daughter arrived from Edinburgh yesterday afternoon and we ended up in the pub until late evening. Off to Leeds daughter later for a pre Christmas curry that she's preparing. Might not be wise as we're hoping to do Christmas Day parkrun 🤔
