The Retirement Thread

[Dave7]

Morning all. Early night last night and crawled out of bed this morning at 07.00
We have our bikes and plan our first 40 miler today with plenty of stops for sightseeing etc.
27° by lunchtime is a bit too warm for me but I will put up with it

 

[Drago]

I have risen!

 

[PaulSB]

You didn't show her my message did you?

No. I wanted to survive for one last bike ride today.

 

[PaulSB]

You allowed the G&T to run out?

Well she did have two BUT I bought Tesco tonic and she complained about that.

I have to admit it is rubbish. No taste and no bubbles.

Morning all fellow retirees, guess what, it's raining. It's dark and a bit grim outside. Another soggy dog walk will be had and then a domestics day.
I have 2 episodes of the new Spiral to watch. BBC4. This is series 7. It's French with subtitles, but an excellent series. You can catch up on iplayer.

 

[PaulSB]

Good day and I have a feeling it will be. The sky looks clear, still dark, and no breeze. Forecast is sun till lunch then light cloud.

Six are out for the Monday ride. Must be lots of frustration with the recent weather. Think it's going to be a chilly start.

Builder arrives at 8.00 to start the new porch.

Slept right through Saturday and Sunday nights till 6.30 now concerns have lifted from my mind. Feel so much better for this.

@Drago I hope life is picking up for you?

@PaulSB you're only having a porch? I've got a drawbridge and portcullis.

Morning folks. No rain or wind but it is still very damp here.

No running water here so we can't fill a most.......

Off to Bideford this morning for our weekly LIDL & ALDI shop.
I can hardly contain myself!

Lol. Have fun. We have only just got an Aldi here so I have been in twice. Seeing a big price difference in most stuff compared with our Co-op.

Morning it's not here yet and I have never been into a Lidl & Aldi shop I think we have them

Taking ages for the mist to clear here and not very warm either. Might eventually get a little bimble at some point.
