The Retirement Thread

[Paulus]

Morning all, nice and sunny. Today's agenda will be gardening. The weather has been very warm whilst I have been away so everything is a bit dry although the grass loves it. Dog walking first off and then off to the greengrocers for fruit and veg. After the amount of Italian food we have consumed the last we need a strict diet for a week or two. I'll get a ride in later this evening. I have a full day ahead.

Morning all, any idea of how to get rid of a crow that keeps attacking windows?

Draw the curtains or the blinds so it can't see it's own reflection. That what it is trying to attack.

Morning

Raced there on a good few occasions. It's also where I had my last racing crash - highsided a 250 coming out of the top corner onto the start finish straight.

New start~finish straight or old?

Is no 57 a Ford Anglia?
I passed my test in one when I was 17, approx 1964.

Morning all. Woke up with creaking bone, feel like a 70 year old........err hang on!



Had a fabulous weekend in sunny Wales, even went on the beach on Sunday. Mrs GM did a brilliant surprise for me when 3 of my brothers and wives turned up to share the weekend with us.

A trip this morning to do the weekly supermarket shopping. It's about the only time we use the car these days. I'll be washing the car and doing the vacuuming later. An exciting day all round,

Morning. In a big rush today as we have a training session 10.30 - 15.30 for the U3A in Warrington.

I assume you take some of the classes? If so, what do you teach ?

Yes, going a lot faster than the one my father had!

My old feller is head of the U3A in his neck of the woods. They organise some good stuff.
