The Retirement Thread

Good morning from a very wet Coventry, in half an hour we're hopping on a coach to Barry Island so we're hoping it clears up later. In other news my computer and phone have stopped talking to each other over USB, they're talking over Bluetooth but not cable, which is strange as its normally the other way round, I'll have to investigate later.

Typical, I bet you planned it to be away, we were going to stop in at your place for a late breakfast on our way to Shrewsbury, guess I will just have to starve.

Not too bad a day here on the Gold Coast of Devon. No rain and white cloud.
Off to Barnstaple in a bit to pick up an EBay delivery at Argos, then a bit of shopping.
Forecast sunny later, so a bike ride is a distinct possibility.

Morning all, all the usual early morning things done. My waterproof is not waterproof anymoreso I shall be off to the local outdoor shop for a new one a bit later. I am also meeting my son at the Burrito Shack in Barnet for lunch, so in order, It will be waterproof shop, burrito, greengrocers for veg for a stir fry tonight, and then the pub for a couple of ales. I was going out on the bike with a mate this morning, but it's pouring down at the moment, so will go tomorrow instead.

Of course you did. How awful for you.

Of course you did. How awful for you.

It was terrible - I was on my way home from the village and I tripped over the doorstep and landed in the pub. Having to have a couple of pints to relieve the trauma of the whole awful episode. I hope this is a warning to others; be careful and watch where you're walking!

Morning all, I shall be out with the dog shortly and then out on the bike around the lanes of Hertfordshire for a 30 to 40 mile ride including a cafe stop in Hertford for coffee and cake.

Been a bit quiet of late...Work, albeit part time now, has been spectacularly stressful recently. I'm getting back on top of it now, so I'm feeling a bit more like it!

Anyroad, lovely warm sunlight outside so I'm going to go out for a bit later and just enjoy not being at work. I'll pick up a book I ordered and that's about the entirety of my plans.

Good morning shopping and chores day today.

 

[Dirk]

Bike ride, dog walk then lunch in the village. That's me sorted.
