The Retirement Thread

[numbnuts]

I had a snooze and now it's

We have had rain, sunshine, hail and now we have snow.

Just back from town where I eventually got my razor**
Picked up MrsDs car and am now £194 lighter......coil pack and plugs.
Our neighbour is Italian and as I type is over in Italy where the outbreak is.......this should be interesting.
**a nightmare. I wanted a Philishave series 5. There are loads of series 5s with almost identical numbers. I chose the one on offer @£70. They tried to charge me £85. I took her to the the display and showed the offer. Turns out there was one digit different. I then had to wait 10 minutes while she went to get the correct one. A right royal pain in the ar*e.

Spent most of today clutching a hot water bottle. Tummy pains are easing now, starting to get to the point where I'm trusting my farts again.

Can't open that but its definitely not the same model..... its a different colour. Its very confusing as there are maybe 10 models in the series 5 range and the prices vary by something like £150.
Then of course you have series 3, 5, 7 and so on........each with its own model numbers. Crazy

Too technical for me.

MrsD has just made some wholemeal Blueberry pancakes served with natural yoghurt.

Snowing here in Poshshire. If it settles I'll have to run Mrs D to work in the morning - because she's blind in one eye she has no depth perception, and when everything is white she has no visual reference, so she never risks it.

Suddenly feeling smug at being a two XC90 household.

We've snow here as well.

Last time I looked it was raining. Our lad drives for a living, he was near Worcester this afternoon and text me to say he had sun, rain, sleet, hail and snow all in a 5 minute period.

He's not in Worcester - he's on the Genesis planet!
