The Retirement Thread

Nice day here and off to play with some dents.

Morning. A bit overcast in Sheffield but a decent temperature.

I plan to do very little today - I have to go back to w**k for a couple of days tomorrow

A light tidy up, read my book, TdF later and that's about it.

Short hilly ride this morning, then nipping down the road to bring my caravan home from storage. It needs a good clean and a couple of little jobs doing, before we go away for 2 weeks on Friday.

After the recent spate of boiling weather. We have decided we do not want to move to Italy full time.

Part time would do.

Good morning all, a bright start to the day , but a bit cooler here at the moment. I have wasted a few hours playing with the kittens we are fostering for a few weeks. They are now 8 weeks old and will be going back to the rescue centre on monday. The mother is ferral and is today being neutered before being released back to the farm where she came from. The kittens will be vacinated and neutered next week, and will then be put up for rehoming.

just enough cloud here today to act as a gentle filter of the sun. So nice low 20s plus a breeze.
Been out for a 20 mile bimble this morning and it was really pleasant at the current temp/breeze

Hot and hilly 15 miles with 800 ft of climbing this morning - averaged 14.8 mph on my steel Dawes Clubman.
Off to pick the caravan up after lunch.

If we didn't have the whippet Roz would love all one them.

We bought a 2 seater garden chair. It arrived today......in a box. MR WD is shaking his head, tutting, and making rather unpleasant comments at the moments that cannot be repeated...

He is not a happy bunny, and i can see this thing ending up in the bin very, very soon.

 

[Dirk]

Caravan brought back. Doggie walked. Shopping done. Was going to cook dinner......but can't be arsed, so we're off down our local for something nice off their menu.

The chair has finally been put together. Was it worth it? Probably not. Then again nothing is cheap these days. I am just glad we got it in a sale and didn't have to pay full price. It def would not have been worth it then. And we seem to have quite a few bits left over as well which is rather worrying.

First course......
