The Retirement Thread

[perplexed]

We've had rumbles of thunder on and off during the night. A couple of short, sharp showers, it's a little unpredictable here because it depends on if it decides to dump its load on the Pennines or wait until it drifts across Sheffield.

Any road, GPs (nurse actually) for annual BP and bloods check. Then the TdF when I get back.

It's against the law of our God Trump to consumer beer before midday. 1201 and you can get bladdered, but any earlier the law declares you a wino.

It is always 12.01 somewhere in the world.

Live Laugh Love Food on Beake Avenue in Coventry do a lovely Pork And Stuffing batch (roll), a contradiction in terms a batch you have to eat with a knife and fork, mine today came with gravy and a large piece of crackling.

Perfect!
16 th century pub, half a mile from new site, excellent food and beer, TdF on the television.
Don't get much better!

Did I win?

Nah - not even close!

The lawn is watered by the big watering can in the sky. Off to help out with the cycle racing at the Heckington Show this weekend, great day out if you are close, Saturday is best for the bikes.

Hope it stays fine for you. You're lucky to be outdoors - I've been in the marquees (by choice!) a few times and nearly sweated to death, but it hardly bears thinking about in this heat.

We. Have. Had. Rain. ......... we do however need much, much more.

I've been on the unpleasant jobs this afternoon. We got back from shopping dinner time and the bin men had been, I lifted the lid of our bin and the stench nearly took my head off, there were also things wriggling in the bottom. So the first job was take it round the back and break out the pressure washer and disinfectant to give it a good clean. Since then I've been sweating over a hot keyboard sorting out the car insurance, not my favourite task, but I've saved ten pound a month and could have saved more but I added breakdown cover, legal cover and I'm paying monthly.

The handle worked loose/fell off?

The handle must be attached to a river of some sort. The rivet has broken and fallen down behind the last lining so I can’t see exactly how it is fixed.

Good morning to one and all. A damp, dull, overcast and cool day here i think.

We had the Welsh weather when I went down stairs to make our tea to take back to bed about a hour ago, just looked out the window and the blue skies are back
