The Retirement Thread

I had to when they were building it.

Would have been alright then, best confined to the memory bank or look over from the M6 when heading north or south

 

[172traindriver]

I wonder why

You know the score

We just drive over sometimes to spend some time going round the shops.

Town centre and Touchwood very pleasant

Town centre and Touchwood very pleasant

I know, my Good Lady likes the shops there, a stop for lunch at Oaks farm shop in Balsall Common and then an afternoon going round the shops in Solihull makes for a pleasant afternoon out.

Took the Little Tikes car to put some fuel in it. It hasn't seen a petrol station since October, and I like to keep it brimmed in case of a SAR call out. Managed to squeeze £19.86 into it, but most disappointingly this last tank only returned 68.44 MPG. Clearly all the sitting around idling during the MOT has hurt the fuel figures. Not good.

My records show it's the 4th visit to a petrol station since I bought it in July, and [B¤in that time the passenger seat has never had a human posterior resting upon it. [/B] It saddens me to see all these 1.5 to 2.0 cars driving about with 3 or 4 empty seats, but the drivers doubtless would whine "but I need 5 seats." Yes, quite. Still, I'm happy to be practicing what I preach.

What sort of posterior has it had resting upon it?

I have to admit..... 4 pints of Old Speckled Hen and a nice Sunday lunch have hit the spot. Pleasant walk home followed by an afternoon executive power nap should round things off nicely.

A donkey and a silverback gorilla.

That's better!

I'm feeling a bit under the weather today. Suffered from a dose of the trots last night. I'm a bit fragile at the mo.

A lot of it going around at the moment.

I don't want any sick people passing their bugs and germs onto me.

Heavy night last night. Staying just outside Nottingham (West Leake) for 2 nights and went to a 'gig' at a place called Larry's bar. Blimey it was cheap eg 2 pints of keg bitter and a LARGE red wine £8.60.......double Grouse with a splash £3.60.
Headache this morning but a full English sorted that .
A chill day. Just going to have a kip then a big decision.... what to have for tea?

Mrs is watching Larry Trotter and the Mixed Race Queen, or something, so I've put on Planet Rock and I'm cleaning my guns on the dining room table.

Cant decide if this is supposed to be good or not.
