The Retirement Thread

Porthmadog was the hottest place in the UK again at 29 deg C.

They're forecasting 37°C in these parts tomorrow. Then it'll start getting warmer.

Weather forecaster's version of pin the tail on the donkey?

Hope it all went OK.

Yes - Humanist service which was quite nice.
Both me and Mrs D have decided that we are not having funerals. Straight to the Crem for us and a few hundred quid behind the bar for anyone who wants to come along and remember us.

Enjoyed my guided tour of the Mercedes F1 factory. I can't help but think in 15 or 20 years the series will be dead in favour of Formula E.

That sounds like a good idea. Quite fancy that myself. No fuss, no muss

I’ll just be going about 100 yards as the crow flies to go in beside mum.

Did you manage to get a nose?

Mr WD is going to be buried in the field. I might even wait until he is dead.

Ah, making room for me, eh?

Actually, I once went out with a Welsh girl. All the Welsh phrases she taught me were actually insults and swearing.

Same for us two - we don't want any of that funeral tosh.

My mum was the same - straight to the crem'.

Think it sometimes depends on how well known the person was. My dad lived all his days in the same village and was so well known and did so much, I feel it would have been sad not to let people come and say their final goodbye.

 

[Drago]

I'll need a proper funeral. Westminster Abbey should just about be big enough to hold the most attractive of the grieving chicks

You've a fish supper, with mushy peas to beat!
