The Retirement Thread

[Drago]

Finished changing the handlebar tape on the Pinnacle. Got a ride planned next week and I'm not sure what time I'll be back, so wanted the bike with the full lights set up ready.

I got back about three quarters of an hour ago, I've had an excellent ride to Wistow and back, my legs were glowing when I got back in, I'm now knackered but I've enjoyed myself.

Sat in the garden centre at Wistow with coffee and toast. I hadn't been this way for ages and had forgotten how lumpy it is round by Saddington.

Dave, you young whippersnapper, you got me all excited when I saw the alert, I thought ooh good dave wants to buy my number plate.

Thanks for your concern, I am on a couple of Jag forums, but no luck there.

I apologise for increasing your heart rate!

Yippee! Another nice morning, car to finish cleaning then off to youngest for a bbq. Diet is doing fine and the back is slowly improving, short swim planned for tomorrow.

Enjoy your day everybody.

T'is Sunday, so will walk the dog in a minute. Then I'll clean the Little Tikes care. Then I'll do bugger all.

Good morning. . I have no idea what i will do today. Probably sod all.

Morning all...

Dull day weather wise, not sure which way it'll go. A nasty sore throat threatened yesterday evening, but it seems to have 90% subsided this morning. Nothing in particular on today, which is ok with me!

Morning all. Sad day yesterday, I sold my Fender Strat, my second most loved possession, arthritis in your left hand can be a real bugger at times.

In other news, I'm going to give the car a spruce up ready for it's MOT and service tomorrow.

Oh no. Sorry you had to part with your beloved guitar.

Morning all from the Pikey Pensioners. Another glorious day of scenic walks, country pubs and chillin' in the van.
We're currently on track to do over 70 nights away this year.

Morning happy people. Countdown continuing to R Day, but still too far in the future for my liking...

Out of interest, at what ages did people retire, if you cared to share? (I expect that it's all in the thread somewhere, but forgive me for not reading the whole thread )

I retired 2 days after my 60th birthday. I could have gone on the Wednesday, but decided to grit my teeth and see the week out.
I got no recognition for this selfless sacrifice. Feck 'em!

I just stopped when i was 52. Still not officially retired.
