The Retirement Thread

I am sure the country is well equipped to deal with a bit of snow, I have complete faith in the councils and highways around these parts.

Local council had the gritters out today. In the rain, on hills!

Is it true they named one of their trucks Adolf Gritler?

Names were never allowed.
They, the council, banned drivers from having name plates in the cabs.

@welsh dragon, do you know a Laurence Mains from down your way?

Involved in something called the "Dragon Project".

Morning all fellow retirees. It's still wet and dark outside, but I will be braving the elements to walk muttles before breakfast.

I've resisted a walk just now as I think the roads and pavements are icy. Bit more browsing then I'll have breakfast. Maybe get out once the frost lifts.

Not sure what the day will bring, maybe bitting and bobbing around the house, maybe a bit of retail, maybe even a gym session.

Good morning folks, our lad went back last night, and will be down again at Xmas, our other lad is visiting today and bringing our granddaughter up as well. My Good Lady is still struggling with her dud knee, I wanted to go out for the day yesterday but we only nipped out to a local cafe and called in on my Sister In Law on the way back.

I have seen him. He has written a few books. He lives opposite to my son.

He is a very odd sort Indeed.

In that case he would fit in well here.

To be honest I think he would be even to weird to fit In here.

Very weird then.

You have no idea. Believe me. Classic is positively normal compared to him

Good morning - There was some heavy overnight rain but it's dry now and 6°C. Nothing needs doing today and I'll probably spend the day doing 'nothing'.

Might not even get any visitors ..which can be good sometimes.

Have the best day possible.
