The Retirement Thread

Good morning all.
Uncle Ernie has come up trumps again. 4 x £25
A nice start to the day.

Morning, lousy night sleep, back pain all night long, I have an e-consult with a doctor (hopefully) sometime today.
Very muggy here 20c but they are expecting a high of 28c today.

@PaulSB .....re Tyler Morton.
I forgot to mention that he hails from Wallasey (Wirral) where I was dragged up.....so he must be good

Morning all

Nothing on PBs for us.....again.
Suppose we'll just have to struggle on as usual.
Off to the car valeters this morning to get the CRV cleaned ready for its MOT on Friday.

Thats a bit of a shocker, our ridge tiles have never been mortared in, roofer went up there and just lifted them off.

Back from just a short wander. I'm finding it too muggy to do much. I'm almost looking forward to autumn and some cooler, fresher days. I seem to have more energy when it's like that.

No, he was against an English opponent. Can’t remember his name. There was another Scot playing too though.

Morning. A wet night and overcast and breezy this morning with more showers forecast. Still feeling muggy though.

My excitement of the day is my first dental check up in nearly 3 years at 11am.

You’re quite correct. It was the team event, not the singles, and I saw it later on the highlights.

Had a call from the Council this morning to say they will take away the old mattress on Thursday morning. We must leave it by the gate. They also said they will charge us 26.50 for the privilege so we kindly reminded them that we are entitled to one item per year for free. They backed down and agreed.
We are still expecting the new one to arrive today before 8 pm.
Not a nice day so far with a constant threat of rain but quite warm.

Been pouring down since 6.30pm yesterday evening - the river nearby is in spate.

Is the rest of the country still being ravaged by wildfires? 🙄

 

[classic33]

Cooooooeeeee. Heav rain all night here. And its quite breezy as well. Supposed to rain until around 4 pm. Its better than that horrible heat we had in July.

Stay safe peeps.

There'll be snow soon, and ice!

No grass fires here recently, there were a couple a few weeks back on the really hot days. But still no rain forecast

 

[Mo1959]

Back from my dental check up. Nothing needing done other than a scale and polish but need to go back next month for that. Occasionally they just do it there and then if they have time. No matter, it will give the car a run as I barely use it now.

Suppose it will be a sandwich and cuppa for lunch soon. It's still breezy and humid here. Not sure if I will venture back out or just watch some more from the games.

Bacon roll for us today.
