The Retirement Thread

Good morning all.
It's dull, overcast and drizzling outside and it's going to be like it most of the day.
I'll get a haircut today, as the chap I use is on holiday and his assistant has introduced an appointment system as he is a bit snowed under. 1000 today is my time.

Cooooeee. Dull, overcast, and damp, just like dragons Y fronts as he would say.

Stay safe peeps

Another night of broken sleep......I am getting too many of them lately.
A bitty day ahead. The only 'sure' thing is a lunchtime visit to the pub with my neighbour.

Off to Minehead on the train this morning for a bit of shopping and some lunch.
Lawns to cut when we get back.

Outside my window screwed to the frame

Probably getting a false reading due to reflected heat.

You keeping track of all their numbers, and those of the coaches.

Assume the coaches are "blood and custard".

I sometimes wonder what your reality looks like.....

Blood and custard coaches.

He'll be saying he's never heard them called that before.

Ahhh but is there a real Classic ?
Does he really exist?

Breckie enjoyed.
Chopped boiled egg (with mayo and pepper), with bacon, on a sarnie.
Yummy.

I have never heard them called that, but, I can see it is an apt description, and, I did guess correctly at the meaning, before looking at the images.

Haute Cuisine here today at Chateau TKK. I was preparing Macaroni Cheese for tea tonight and as usual had made a really rich cheese sauce ( vintage extra mature cheddar, whole milk and 200ml of evaporated milk plus a smidgeon of Marmite ). After finishing the dish and scraping as much cheese sauce out of the saucepan that I could, I grabbed a slice of wholemeal bread, wiped it around the saucepan to gather as much of the residue that I could, and then used a knife to get at the extra reluctant bits and spread them on the slice. I ended up with a rather excellent cheese sauce and potato crisp sandwich. I might omit the macaroni stage next time, and just go for the cheeses sauce sandwich 😁

I had cheese and onion sandwiches and a bag of crisps so not that different. Not home made though
