The Retirement Thread

[PaulSB]

Well the rain, gentle, soft rain arrived and the allotment is happy. Mrs P isn’t as she was shed painting.

My neighbour has an eight year old who plays football on their garden all winter. It’s usually a sea of mud and this winter was true to form.

I spent hours scarifying my lawn, moss killed and fed it.

Perhaps people would like to guess which is which? There is a clue.

I’m not very happy about this.

Emergency tooth extraction for me this morning. Wasn't half as much fun as I thought it would be.

Worst thing is that I'm not allowed out on the bike in this glorious weather nor can I sit in the sun and have a beer.

He lied when he said it would not hurt, why believe him now.

I’m not very happy about this.

The moral of the story would appear to be:

a) throw away scarifier, moss killer and lawn feed

b) borrow neighbour's son (and goal posts)

Another nice day here, the bike is calling.

Light cloud with blue splashes. Temperature is 11C so all looking hopeful for this morning’s Hilly Wednesday. Not so hilly for me today as along with two others regulars I’m heading out on a rolling Ribble Valley Ramble. Two other pensioners from this group are heading off to do this:

Picking the caravan up in a couple of hours, then trundling down the A39 to Boscastle at pensioner speed. Funny how we always have a lovely clear road in front of us.

 

[roadrash]

just be sure to get there in time for the pub at lunchtime, wouldn't want you missing out

Good morning, another bright and sunny one, but rain later.

I love Boscastle, stayed in one of the best B&B's there ever.

Ow. Hope you feel better soon.

Good morning. Dam cool here to say the least. Another 'no idea what i am going to do day' i think.

Back from run. Sweating like the Iranian President when Trumps in town.
