The Retirement Thread

Been out...
I love the smell of wet dog in the morning 🐶 💦

Morning.
Think the worst of storm passed through overnight, now it's just the regular wet and windy day.
Feathers in my study leaving evidence of cat activity last night. The tools required for vacuum repair finally arrived yesterday evening so that's plan for this morning and then vacuum said feathers etc. Great.
Weights later and a possible ride outside tomorrow with a mate as forecast looks decent amazingly.

Don't get me too excited, folks, it's nearly time for my 09:00 BP measurement!

Morning all

Heavy rain overnight, main roads flooded, schools closed .... and we are cut off due to flooding on the only lane to our place.
Best stay in today, then.
Think I'll spend the morning welding.

Apparently you have the worst of it down there.

If you haven't used the estate emulsion before you should find it's very tough. We have it in a couple of rooms and it's last very well. Good paint to apply in my experience.

We’ve used it for years, the whole house is painted in it.

My sphygmomanometer ran out of power half way through so my readings were slightly delayed!

Well I got into the thing, now to repair and reassemble. It was fiddly but not quite as bad as I feared.
Edit ; reassembled and all working. Another success for the home DIYer against the odds
