Come to Devon.

Come to Devon.

Or Lancashire - a place where everyone matters.

Sold my small business end of last year. Sold the house this week, moving out mid May. Wife and I, plus dog, moving into our camper van and going on an adventure. Chunnel to Calais and turn right, France, northern Spain and Portugal. When it gets too hot we think we’ll meander to Scandinavia. That’s about as detailed we are going to get, just head off and meander about. Quite like this retirement thing.

Bike rack on the back was empty so had to buy another bike, CAAD12!

Best bit is my wife has also retired but has found herself a job as a moderator/adviser on a commercial forum/message board, 9 hours a week, decent money too. Provided she’s got her MacBook, phone signal or WiFi, she can work anywhere the van takes us!

Sounds like a plan.
Just make sure there are plenty of beer stops.

Pretty much teetotal these days but trying to find a way of taking our coffee machine. Essential, and would save us a fortune.

Good morning, its stormy Saturday, our friend Hannah saying hello, a dark, damp and breezy morning. I'm not sure what we're doing yet, not a lot I suspect.

Yuk day today

 

[172traindriver]

Today it is going to be crap weather all day. A total washout. So reading and watching a film or 2 will be the order of the day for me.

Did you move much at all today?

 

[172traindriver]

Right.... tell all.
Which films?
Dvd or recorded?
Any popcorn ?

Shame you werent invited round

 

[172traindriver]

Aquaman looks good.
No DVD or recorder. Netflix
No popcorn either i am afraid.

Should have invited him round for a snuggle on the sofa

 

[172traindriver]

Go away you.

He's blown his chances

 

[classic33]

Yes, after beating County Chorley threw it away by losing the next match. Semi-final is next Sunday but Rovers are home so I'll be at Ewood.
