The Retirement Thread

Dull at the moment but calm.

Stay safe peeps.

In here or outside?

Morning. Folks. Is it my imagination or do we seem to be accumulating more old farts in this old folks home

Stay safe peeps.

It would appear so, I recon at this rate we'll need an extension.

Morning all

Bit dull and misty this morning but forecast to brighten up later.
Off out for a walk this morning and then lunch booked at the Old Smithy Inn.

It would have to be a single story of course as these old codgers won't be able to climb stairs

Both. But at least the dull one is still in bed

It's been a while since I've had an extension...

Good morning all. MrsP has gone for a swim at the local pool, so I'll be out with the dog shortly.
A ride out on the bike after that and then a late breakfast/early lunch
The weather doesn't look good later on.
The latest recruits to the old gits section are very welcome, newblood and all that..

Stay safe everyone

I think you mean new old blood

Good morning all, dull but dry.
Yesterday was spent on a little walk followed by the final stage of the Tour de l’Ain and the mens’ then womens’ San Sebastian/Donostia. Looked a bit grim there.
Still debating today’s plans.

I know my blood is not new

Anyway - shed is now complete and no rain coming according to the Met Office so I am about to see if I can remember how to ride the bike
Haven't been out for 3-4 days!!

Might even try 'The Big Hill' shortcut instead of taking the long way round
but probably not

We stayed in St Sebastian/Donostia once.....a lovely place.
This was before we knew what Tapas was. We were in a bar and these nice people kept sending us all this "free" food which we scoffed.
It was next day when we found out we were supposed to pay for it.
It was also the 1st time we saw/heard pan pipes played.

Happy Yorkshire Day

I've been having an easy morning, I've been to fetch the Sunday papers, jet washed our wheely bin, when I put it out Friday it was closing up my sinuses, and probably half the street, I got my battery jetwasher on it with hot water and disinfectant and it smell a lot better, I also hacked a path to the shed door, we've got two ferns by the shed and they've gone well this year, I was having to fight through the foliage to get to the door so I got the shears out and for now I can get to the door.

Took the Brommies out to the "Egg and Jam" Lady on the Cowgrove road. The fresh air really did me good. Stopped in Wimborne on the way back and had coffee and Pan au Chocolat at Le Petit Prince. They close part of the road on Sundays and the Cafes put out tables and chairs. Very cosmopolitan, hope it is an ongoing success.
