The Retirement Thread

[ebikeerwidnes]

I got 'advised' to not go out for a ride yesterday - something to do with the heat and sun and my skin being very fair


so I'm about to go out now while it is a bit cooler and SWMBO is still in bed!

gotta find something to do now the TdF is over

Owt interesting?

How many letters?

I'm assuming that it is a cryptic crossword clue! Speaking of which - time to adjourn to the crossword/computer games/struggling-to-sleep room...

No crossword clue, just a question.

Ate sure you have really lost it and its bot just become 'unscrewed' ?
My new specs were continually doing that.
I resorted to lock tight in the end.

I'm not too bothered about this pair they must be at least 10 years old, the dog chewed one of the arms. Plus I've got a good collect of reading glasses one for each room, Also I'm getting a new pair of varifocal glasses from Specsavers next week.
Good idea with the lock tight, I've done that before!

A tiny dab of nail varnish does the trick if you don't have any Loctite to hand.

Back from morning ride - to find a massive crane outside the house
well actually outside next door - they are having a massive extension built with the biggest bi-fold door known to man or woman
I presume they need a massive RSJ to support the big hole they are about to knock in the back wall

Oh no! I'm on the Sandfords cider!
'Slack me Girdle - 5.8 %' to be precise.........it may be a sleepy afternoon.

Now.....shall I go for a pint of 'The General - 8.5%' ?
Oh....sod it!

Sun has just come out. Nicely timed for me to hang up the washing.

 

[Dirk]

Ladies and gentlemen.....I present 'The General - 8.5%'
Wow!
