The Retirement Thread

[PaulSB]

I do wonder why I have a wife if I have to do these things

Dave you're a man of the world, been around for a while..........we both know why we have a wife............to "remind" us we have stuff that needs doing.

I have just been out clearing up the fence panel that last weeks storm smashed up and I was blown around a bit.

To bring you much needed refreshments after offering words of encouragement from nearby.

I must have had a senior moment as that had gone right out of my head.
Thank you for the reality check.

I feel it becomes increasingly important for men to stand together as we reach life's more senior age...........

I can feel a march coming on. A few banners and flags. Now Welshie has several sewing machines, maybe she will knock them up for us

I'm listening to Network Gold on BBC Sounds on headphones and I can hear the wind above the music. I'll be checking in the morning to see how many fence panels have survived.

When did you last have one, we may be able to locate it.

Lovely Wife is all cranked up and raring to go - she's looking stunning with her new haircut (I'm a lucky lad) and we're off to the pub and then home for an all night party for two and probably won't hit the sack until 6-7pm.

Hard work these younger lasses.

Before I was semi-retired I was too tired for all this malarky.

Swapped the cherished plate onto the Volvo. Updated the insurance online myself, only for thr buggers to charge me a £25 "admin fee". Considering g I'd done all the admin and not them this drove me into a towering rage, which only worsened when I phoned them to find their call centre was closed.

Seems to be par for the course making a £25 charge for any alterations now..........as if the prices aren’t high enough.
