The Retirement Thread

[welsh dragon]

Confession time.
Our new pool is 8 foot long and deep enough to wallow in.
The garden is totally private.
In it (for fun) I put some floating ducks......25 years old from when the grandkids were little.
So......there I was in the nude and MrsD decided to take a photo.
So......I collected the ducks and (i thought) covered my bits.
When we got in she sent photo to son and daughter.
It was only then Iooked at the photo and noticed the obvious ie MrsD hadn't checked make sure all dangly bit were covered.
My daughter claims she is traumatised

Poor girl. She may need counselling for that

Good morning all, we have a nice East Coast haar to cool things down a bit. One of those rare occasions when I’m glad to be living next to the North Sea.

I feel a bit crap. As you may know, ive been fitting a new garage roof and yesterday I thought I might finish the job if I gave it one final push.

I didn't finish, but spent too long in the sun and feel pretty crap this morning, headachy and a bit sore in the muscles so reckon I got a touch of heat stroke. Ill take it easy today, keep well hydrated and will finish the job tomorrow when its forecast to be a little cooler.

Good morning all fellow peeps.
Another hot start to the day here

MrsP booked tickets for the adults only even at London Zoo. There will be street food and other entertainments available, plus no kids running around. It starts at 6pm so it might be a bit cooler

Good morning folks,
A better night sleep and it feels a tad cooler this morning. I ordered a book from the local library a couple of months ago and had completely forgotten about it until I had a text message yesterday to advise that it was ready for collection. The book is "Project Hail Mary" by Andy Weir, a follow up to " The Martian ". I'm enjoying it, it's a bit " Sciency" but I like that. The book is in in hardback and having got used to reading on my E reader, it feels so heavy, plus I can only make the text appear larger by moving my eyes closer to the page 😄
Have a good day folks 😎

Has that welsh woman been telling you things that were supposed to be private

@Dave7 would probably just explain that the water was very cold 😉

Clearly there was nothing private concerning what you showed in that photo.

It is getting quite scorchio here now.
