The Retirement Thread

[Tenkaykev]

Good morning from a cold Dorset, zero degrees 🥶. A bright sunny day ahead ☀️ should top up the battery and power the house. I switched to a fixed energy tariff yesterday, it's a couple of pence dearer per kWh during the day but at least I know that's locked in for a year.
In other news it's " second Friday " so will be meeting up with friends. First stop is the Goat and Tricycle for a pint and a pub lunch, then on to the Barking Cat.
Keep warm folks.

Strange name for a pub.....The Goat and Tricycle. Mind you, Barking Cat ???

Morning all

First frost. Brrr!
Doggie walking at tall trees, then dropping in on a mate to collect some books for another mate, whilst on our way to the Carew Arms for lunch.

First frost of the season up my end.

Rich pickings in Aylesbury overnight, Pete?

The G+T is two old pubs that were next to each other, knocked through into one in the 90's and given a quirky name as was a bit of a trend at the time. It's a Butcombe brewery pub with some great beers. There's also rooms above where they host book groups and even things like life drawing lessons ( perhaps numbnuts could offer his services as a life model if he's ever in the area 😉)
