The Retirement Thread

[Drago]

Back from ogling they Doctor. Finished my Wilbur Smith. Light lunch, then a snooze in front of the fire in my rocking chair, make the most of this cold weather.

We have sun and flakes of snow, so i am going to sit in front of the fire toasting my toes and reading i think. I may also have a snooze. Dam, this is hard work.

I think we deserve a rest after stocking firewood last summer. In fact, I may have overdone it, have enough wood stocked for another winter. Can't beat heating the house for free.

I love my fire. You can't beat them.

I feel sorry for all these workies, spending all day down t'pit so they can afford to switch the heating in at night.

Two hours in gym this morning, then two people paid me well for some artistic metal work, now changing the wardrobe back to summer wear. Turbo session later followed by I know not. Life is great.

Just completed the C2C on the turbo, Whitehaven to Tynemouth, looking out of the conservatory contemplating cutting the grass, a bit of a cold wind I think, carry on contemplating.

Now done, back in conservatory admiring my work.

 

[Drago]

Never do today that which you can put off until tomorrow.

Just got back from final leg of our Tour de Cotswolds. 48 miles, Hook Norton to Redditch.
Gonna flop out now.

Nice swim this morning, then spent the day in the company of a couple of interesting guys whose boss decided to put a load of dosh in my bank account.

Now being force fed alcohol by my better half, I also keep finding holiday sites on my computor each time I look at it, could there be a connection?

Have spent the week in Amsterdam. Missed out on 2 rounds of golf and 2 rides! And some say that retirement is a soft option!!

Well, spent today paying off some credit cards that had reached the end of their interest free periods, then shuffling the savings round to best effect. Nice walk with the dog, vac'd the car out and cooked a stew. I am still expecting to hear from North Yorks HR about my new job, but was told to expect a delay due to the vetting process. Shooting competition tomorrow, first time I've shot with the West Yorks team as a retired officer. Looking forward to catching up with the old guard.
