The Retirement Thread

Don’t think it will fit presta valves .I use my track pump for the bike.Any way I have to get my upper arm exercises occasionally 😀😀😀

Mine packed in a couple of months ago, I'm the opposite, I'm using an old track pump for my car tyres. That certainly gives you a workout!!! The only issue I've had is the nozzle is a tight fit on the valve and I lose a bit of pressure when I try to take it off so I have to go higher to lose a bit.

Bacon and egg sandwiches for us today. , with Tom sauce of course, not that cacky brown muck

I had ham and mushroom tagliatelle. No, not home made Dave

There’s an easy, beginners pace hour group ride on Zwift at 2.30 that I might join so hoping the pasta helps

I need a laugh,the tension is building up.I have an appointment at 15-20 bloods taken and a meeting with my team.I am hoping for the halfway treatment report.There are only three options in my opinion It's not progressed,it's going backwards or it's growing.Two of those will do me.

I have used a track pump in the past.Problem was I didn’t entirely trust the pressure gauge as often when I checked with a pressure gauge there was a difference of two pounds less.Not bothered too much on the bikes but not acceptable on the car.

Hope it’s good news.

One of the people on our walk this morning confirmed that it was thunder that I heard earlier today.
Managed to escape the worst of the rain and thought better of trying to follow our usual route through the woods.
Back home now enjoying a chunk of chocolate and a slice of coffee and walnut cake 🍰

Yes I agree, I should have added I check them with a digital pressure gauge afterwards.

Mo.......I think I told you that I tried those 2 soups you recommended (Yorkshire ??) And was impressed. Was in Tesco and bought thier own version.....not a patch on those Yorshire ones. Obviously cheaper as I say, not a patch.

I'd rather be a heathen than a pretender.

Popped in to the Doctors surgery to advise them that I wouldn't be able to make Saturdays appointment for the second of my two Shingles shots. The receptionist looked up on her computer and said that the next shingles clinic would be sometime in the new year and no dates had yet been arranged, but they'd be in touch. I just had time to walk the 100 yards to the pub to rejoin the rest of the walking group when my phone rang. Apparently I need to have my second jab within 6-8 weeks of the first, so they want to see me next week. That's very good service👍
