The Retirement Thread

[welsh dragon]

Still got lots of roadworks here. They have dug up a lot of the road on the A470 and are re laying new tarmac at Night. So no cycling for me until Thursday. Warm already, so may do some gardening.

Beats going to work though.

Can't disagree with that.

Right, that's school assembly done. Just having a coffee, then change into my whistle and out for the funeral.

I may get beaten up for saying so, but Pukka pies beat Fray Bentos any day.

Pukka pies. Yummy.

Never heard of them, I only only eat home-made

Have to admit, I have tried them. They were just about passable.

Well you know when it says minced beef, only part is correct.

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

I go on some of the organised walks around here.

Asda had Pukka pies on offer at a £1:00 each for a few weeks. I bought a lot while the going was good and put them in the freezer. The price is back up to £1:75 each now.

Drove all the way to school this morning, only to find out they didn't need me today. Got back home and removed some wire netting that was supposed to keep the dog off the front garden but she found a way round it so not needed now . The dog won. Thinking of washing the car later when it cools down a bit. The seagulls have been busy overnight, again.
My new bib shorts have arrived this morning, DHB aeron speed. Might try them out tonight .

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.
