The Retirement Thread

They deserved it

For someone who was always a soccer enthusiast I can’t be arsed with soccer.I really enjoy the rugby .No premature Donnars arguing every decision the ref makes

Kebabs before the game has finished?

Like a perverts winky on a teacher training day, I have risen!

Good to see you.

English mustard surely.

It was actually.
Normally I would go for whole grain whereas MrsD always goes for English.
I also had some pickled onions 🙂

Amen to that. 👍

You'll find your parcel now for sale on ebay. It'd probably be quicker to buy it back on ebay and wait for the new delivery...unless the seller uses Evri!

My wife can be very cruel. We're discussing the football.

Me: "Rovers should have been playing Burnley tomorrow but we're both still in the cup."
Mrs P: "Who are Burnley playing?"
Me: "Man City. We could be looking at Rovers v Burnley in the semis."
Mrs P: "You have your little dream dear"

To the quick, I'm cut to the quick

 

[PaulSB]

Although she may have been thinking Burnley have no chance against City. 🤔

 

[Drago]

Footballist!

If so it would appear she is correct.

We get this a lot in North Baddesley as it seems we are at the end of their rounds and if they are running late they don't deliver until the following day, sometimes even later, but I just wish they told the truth.

Still recovering from an ear infection and slightly wobbly and uncoordinated as a result, so another day with no ride. About to walk Bruce. Then it's a Q day of house tidying and instrument practice.

Someone is bound to ask so let's get it done with. I suffered a bit of a breakdown last year and just suddenly snapped, behaving increasingly irrationally until the wonderful Mrs D got a grip and set me on the road to sanity. I'm fine now and would rather not talk about it. Suffice to say I am gladdened beyond belief to be back here with my many friends, and grateful to the long suffering CC staff for being willing to put up with me again.

That is all.

All hail the mighty Mrs D and welcome back to Drago.

 

[Drago]

Thanks asvd.

Mini D is out at a sleepover, and Mrs D is watching that drink driver and his mate on ITV, you know, the annoying northerner with the toupee.

I'm still feeling a little woozy with the ear so I've showered and I'm now laying in my lovely heated watered watching Indiana Jones.

It'd go something like this, "driver attempted delivery(to a nearby house, right street, wrong number), you signed for it at this address. Their proof, a picture of your parcel being handed to someone whose head isn't in the picture.
This person lives opposite the house(wrong one) where the driver attempted delivery. House where the person says they live is currently empty, owner in hospital. The parcel is handed to someone who claims to live at an address you know to be empty, and you are asked how you know their driver can't have handed it to who he said, after you had signed for it. They just don't answer any request for a copy of your signature, leaving you wondering who's running things.

But it's OK. Now they've ditched the Herpes name we're all supposed to think they're suddenly competent.
