The Retirement Thread

Good morning all from a frosty Barnet
A lovely sunny start to the day.
More of the same today. Domestics, dog walking and then out on the bike for a while

Another busy day in paradise.

Stay safe peeps

Good morning all, a bright start here.
Watched the second episode of Simon Reeve’s Lake District programme last night, thought provoking as ever.

Question Time
What'll you be doing with the extra second of daylight today?

Good Morning folks.
Bright and frosty this morning. Veg Box, Black bin and group walk this morning followed by a trip to the Library to pick up a book I reserved and return the previous in the series. That will be followed by a trip in to Poole to collect daughter's Christmas present from Go Outdoors.
Stay safe folks 👍

Morning folks no frost here, reckon its warmer here than darn south! Wind has dropped so will be saying hello to my favourite hills this morning. Went for a short spin yesterday and a deer jumped out on me, will have to watch out for them as dont fancy going over the handlebars

Sorry carcass elevation sequence is completed here. Tea, toast, and Frank Cooper's are next on the agenda, before bimbling potential evaluation.

I might be back later to talk bicycles and stuff.

A good, heavy sleep last night and woke at 0810....very nice.
Have I woken up in a different universe ?? There is a post from a guy called @Dirk which suggests he isn't going to have a pub lunch
Maybe I should go back to bed.

Maybe you haven't woken up yet!
This may all be a dream.

Good morning. Quite mild out today and certainly much warmer than yesterday.

Today? Well it's Tuesday so I'll head off to collect the small person in 20 minutes or so.

I've realised remarkably little is happening in my life recently. Not sure how I feel about this. A friend recently told me she felt Covid-19 had accelerated her mental ageing. Her daughter told her not to be daft. I've thought about this and suspect there may be something in it. That's depressing.

I've decided to buy a new phone.......that's a depressing exercise. Takes me ages to reach a decision.

Just read that again. I am quite content but those thoughts were a bit depressing.

Small person is two feet away in her high chair, Weetabix and pear puree have gone down cleanly, bagel in one hand Tomee Tippee cup in other, spoon on table...........

.......we are playing throw bagel, spoon and cup on floor and see what Grandad does..........Granddad is currently ahead as he sneaked another bit of clean bagel to her!!!!
