The Retirement Thread

[Mo1959]

Morning. It has been raining heavily since around 3am. Not sure if it’s easing a bit now. No doubt I will brave it for a walk soon.

Wordle fell into place quickly this morning and got it in 3.

I’ve just been pottering on the ipad putting off time until Grantchester at 9. Might have an early night.

I meant to record Granchester but forgot....... was it any good ?

Stay safe peeps

When I had my rant about Mr WD prescripton I got the mileage wrong. 18 mile round trip to drop it off. Another 18 mile round trip only to find out the computers broke, and I will have another 18 round trip to get it, that makes a grand total of 54 miles just to get his tablets. And with the Cost of petrol thats crazy

Good morning people I've got ironing to do and rugby to watch, the wordle was a simple one, but I needed 5 goes to work it out, its another bright and breezy morning, the carer was here at half six and was a new one, we had to show her where stuff was and tell her what we wanted doing, I had a crap night last night, my hip was keeping me awake complaining.

Good morning all, a damp start here. The first of the garden daffodils is almost out.

Try using the Lloyds Direct app. It's excellent.

I enjoyed it, but I usually do.

Back from just over 5 miles weary walk in the rain. One of these days even walking feels like hard work. Saw a few ladies out running which just made me feel worse. Mind you, they must have been half my age.

Quick browse then I'll get my breakfast.

It won't be me, that's for sure. I have set my alarm for 08:15 so I can have a leisurely breakfast, but that will be 2+ hours later than the early birds.

Well, I got half of it right... Up on time but only 4 hours sleep. I feel like I have already done the bike ride!

If I didn't have a friend to meet I would go back to sleep for a couple of hours.

This is the bit where I open the curtains and discover that the weather is crap...

Hmm, it has been raining but isn't now and there is some blue sky. The BBC and Met Office don't quite agree. This could go either way.

Fingers crossed we get lucky - I don't have mudguards on the singlespeed bike. I do have an upper guard on the back but that does nothing for the bike or my legs.

See you later!

Morning all, wordle in 3
The first load of washing is on the line, it's nice and breezy out there, but the sun has disappeared behind the clouds.
Dog walking shortly and then this afternoon is a tv sports armchair day.
A couple of football matches, and in between there is the cycling.
I've just noticed its starting to rain.
Almost instantly it has stopped and the sun has come out. It's going to be one of those days weather wise.
