The Retirement Thread

[Deleted member 1258]

Not a problem for me, I’m not going there.If this thread is anything to go by , it’s a country populated by really scary women.

Last time I was in Chester they wouldn't accept the passes on their park and ride, we were told they are accepted on the other buses but not the park and ride.

Good Morning folks,
A sunny morning following a hard overnight frost. Happy birthday, and many more of them to @Dirk, " May your chips be crisp, your batter crunchy, and your pea be mushy "
Sad to hear of the death of Lionel Blair, I've been listening to a compilation of the tongue in cheek asides made by Humphrey Littleton on " I'm Sorry I haven't a Clue ", some of them are so very near the knuckle that I'm surprised they got away with it.
A session on the Turbo beckons, followed by a wander up to the Library to collect a book that I'd ordered.
Have a good day folks. 👍🎂
EDIT: peas for pear 🙁

7 years retired today.

Many happy returns of the day (my mother always said this rather than Happy Birthday for some reason)

"But I have an Oldham post code and some websites will not accept West Yorkshire as the county and force me to select Lancashire!"
Sorry but you need to move further east, we can't have a Yorkshireman claiming they live in Lanc, Lanc, sorry I can't even bring myself to type the word!!!

Morning folks and a happy birthday to Dirk Its dry again so think i'll take my camera out and take a few pics on my well worn route. Theres a wind farm so might take a spin up there if my creaky old legs are up to it. Its getting a bit parky now and im thinking i'll have to buy a balaclava or something when it gets really cold.

I thought Dalglish was a retired footballer. He is going into acting now?

King Kenny is multi-talented

Just thinking about my pig, I have never seen another one and occasionally google without success, but just had another go and found this on eBay. Whether it's accurate or not who knows. Gives me an idea at least.

Happy Birthday @Dirk - have a great day and extra large fish and chips, you know treat yourself.

Well it's dank and cold, think I might light the wood burner for the first time this winter. Nothing at all which has to be done. I want to wash my Kinesis and hoover out the car but as I say it's dank and cold. On Wednesday I decided I wanted a nice blue Gilet to match my Lusso autumn/winter jacket as my club gilet in black and green clashed terribly! Vanity, pure vanity. Ordered online a blue one from Lusso on Wednesday evening and arrived ten minutes ago. Very happy.

I need some new winter gloves so hope to find those online today.

He did. There is a blue tit sitting on it
