The Retirement Thread

Oh dear. Oh deary me. Mrs D has this strict "one in, one out" policy for wheeled vehicles. Problem is, I've just accidentally agreed to purchase a 1966 velosolex a mate of mine is rebuilding.

Excellent, that sounds like a legal clause.

I'm knackered, totally cream crackered. Started this morning moving the mattress into the back bedroom, removed the front bedroom door, put the old bed out for the scrappy, moved the wardrobe onto the landing, realized I couldn't leave it there and moved it into the back bedroom, moved the second wardrobe into the small bedroom and moved the old carpet into the car to take down the tip. Carpet fitter and new bed arrived between 3 and 4. Assembled new bed, repeated the furniture move in reverse and put the door back on, planing a chunk of the bottom whilst I was doing it. Bedroom now finished.

You must be totally shattered Dave after working so hard for the last week or so. Well done.

Morning folks. Really dark here. Can't hear any wind or rain, so that is something i suppose.

Shopping at ALDI & LIDL over in Bideford this morning then caravan /car cleaning and taking van back to storage this afternoon.
Woohoo!

Dog walked. Not sure if it's foggy or if my cataracts are acting up again.

Good morning folks, dark and damp here, but its finally stopped raining. I feel a bike ride coming on. I'm knackered, bad night last night, down stairs at half three drinking tea.

Maybe getting out for a couple of hours will do you some good.

Thats the plan.

Morning all, a bit damp and grey here at the moment. Normal things to do early on and then I am meeting with 3 ex colleagues for lunch and then going to the Fullers brewery for a tour. No doubt some tasting will be done
