The Retirement Thread

[The Central Scrutinizer]

Great day yesterday at the british summertime event in hyde park.
I really enjoyed seasick steve(cannot believe he is 77)and richard ashcroft but everyone was there for roger walters and he didn't disappoint.Did a lot of floyd songs and the light show was brilliant.
I couldn't believe how many "young"people were there and they knew all the words to the songs which are over forty years old.

We're thinking a trip over to the farm shop in Balsall Common for lunch then perhaps a wander round Solihull this afternoon.

Doing a bit of reading up for Friday's SAR training. Rope work, which I haven't done for a while. Got my proper rope working refresher in Semtember with Edale Mountain Rescue.

I can't believe S Steve is that old! I still think he has the best album title. 'I started out with nothing; still got most of it left'.

Late up today. Mrs P and I are going out for a potter. Going to record the F1 qualifying to watch later with my home made jerk chicken recipe and a nice, chilled white wine.

Have a good day y'all...

It'll all balance out in a couple of months, I was the same.

This Nespresso is nice. George Clooney never let's me down.

Morning all , I have put the first coat of emulsion on the utility room walls. Sitting watching the first stage of the tour at the moment. Back to the painting shortly.

2 loads of washing done and now outside on the line. I pushed the vacum cleaner round a bit and am now slouched in a chair watching the TDF.

Lunch at Oaks Farm Shop Balsall Common.

And the view from the cafe

 

[Drago]

Flaked on the sofa with a book. Windows open, being fan going full tilt as if a Dec Dakota has crashed through the roof, still hot. Also been bitten painfully on the leg, expecting to die of Lyme disease by nightfall.

Not good, is it?

Have you got another one?

My might not have a leg to stand on.
