The Retirement Thread

Hi it's me again

You are certain it is you!

It is getting a bit brighter here. I can see the Sun.

Yep, same here. I'm going to dig out my wet weather walking gear. We depart at 12.20. Yipeeeeeeee..................this means I don't have to start decorating. Did I say Mrs P mentioned the D word yesterday in that manner which suggests a husband doesn't really have much choice!!!!

Got my walk in dry. Quite humid though.

The garden refuse bin people don't seem to know what they're doing today. There's 2 lorries on the go plus men in vans and they don't seem to know which lorry is doing which street!

I live in Lancashire as well. I doff my cap sir, chapeau. I wouldn't be on a bike today, might as well sit in the shower fully clothed!!! 😄

Well we went.
We got back.
We got wet.
Roughly Formby, Mawdesley, Croston, Hesketh Bank and Southport.
Coffee but no cake at a butty van.

A character building ride.

MrsP bought two tins of paint home the other day. I think I know what it means.

She's going to paint the house?

Here's today's swim.
Might have broken social distancing rules sheltering under the awning at the butty van. Naughty, but an emergency was declared.

Just had a phone call from the hairdresser offering me an appointment on 21st July. It’s good they are looking after their regulars first before getting swamped with others wanting fitted in.

I assume it's at least a 30 mile ride to your hairdresser ........

That's a pretty fast swim on dry land as well. local rivers and ditches?

Nope. You are well wrong there.
It wasn't dry land😊😊😊

MrsD had the same call from her hairdresser last week. July 30th was the earliest they could fit her in.
I trimmed it for her last week and, although I say so myself, I did a pretty good job.
MrsD was more than happy with the result.
I just need to persuade her to have a No3 all over and I could do a perfect job for her.

It did cross my mind to try clippers!
