The Retirement Thread

[Dave7]

Morning all.
Looks like I may have stopped upchucking. I had some milk and 2 ginger biscuits yesterday and they stayed down.....its still threatening but a big improvement.
MrsD is 'hoping' to go to a funeral today, a woman in her 60s that we have known many years. I have told her she is mad. No way I will try the way I am so she is talking about getting a lift

Good morning from a warm, bright and sunny Coventry.

MrsD awoken by a giant cock this morning.
Bloody thing was cock-a-doodle-doing outside our van at 5am.
We're packing up and towing home in a couple of hours time.
It's been an enjoyable short break.

Morning all. Another sunny day ahead.
Dog walking tube done early after breakfast.

I have started to strip the old Raleigh I bought last week. It's coming apart quite easily, although it is filthy dirty. Much dried grease and crud to remove.

I will have a bimble later to the local shops, the milk has gone off and we could do with some fresh fruit as the fruit bowl now only has one apple and a sad looking plum in it.

Enjoy your day everyone.

Good morning folks,
Must go for a run soon before it warms up too much, I’ll pop down the trailway to pick up the Roman road down to the backshore, it’s shaded most of the way.
In other news the friend who was bitten by an adder a few weeks ago is out of hospital. Her arm is still swollen and she’s unable to drive.
Have a peaceful day folks, ☀️☀️☀️😎🍺🚲🏃‍♂️

I may have missed it but how did she come to be bitten on the arm ??

Morning again. Nice 7 mile walk done before it gets warm again. Must drink more in this heat so popped into the shop on the way home and got some diluting juice as I'm not good at just drinking plain water.

She was bitten on the hand, the venom spread up her arm. Very unpleasant but at least she got a ride in a helicopter 🚁

Back from my run/ walk. I nearly came a cropper when my ( tired ) legs clipped a piece of rock and I stumbled forward for a couple of paces. Fortunately I was going so slow I didn’t have the momentum to fall 😁
Warm out there too, might take a picnic to the park later ☀️☀️👍

My legs are always so heavy these days that I am prone to doing that too. Gone down a couple of times so I'll stick to road running or very smooth trails now. No protruding tree roots and stones. Even tripped walking a couple of times this morning.

You need a copy of the book I mentioned earlier.

Maybe it's lonely!
