The Retirement Thread

Will you be falling into a pub?

There's certainly a distinct possibility.

Will you be falling into a pub?

...........are you not supposed to fall out of them?

Someone here tried to tell us that he accidentally fell into the pub. I daresay you can and do do both for different reasons. Sort of before and after

I presume that if you've fallen into a pub you've fallen out of one earlier, which begs the question, will you get served if you've got to the stage you're falling in and out of the local pubs.

I tripped on the step!

Allegedly.

In Dirks case yes. . It seems to happen to him frequently.

Wakey wakey people. Rise and shine.

Did you wet the bed ?

Did you wet the bed ?

Nah. I tend not to sleep very well. Can't possibly be due to my age.

Just got back from a ride around some Shropshire lanes, I am going to have to move over here one day.

 

[Dirk]

Ride done.
Shower and dog walk next, then off to pub.

Shropshire is nice. A walk up the Wrekin is hard work, but enjoyable.

I was planning to stay here another few years until Mini D goes up to big school, and then move back to my place at Shetland. However, plans are afoot to build a chuffing great (and un-needed) rail freight temrinal a few miles form us, and if they are successful in getting the planning permission I'll accelerate my plans and move back soonest. I don't bother working, Mrs D only works part time, so there's no real issue at upping sticks and going back. I renew the lease to my tenant in 6 moth cycles, so won't need to wait too long for my gaff to be vacant. Then decide whether to rent out or sell Chez Drago II.

Unphased by the lack of bright city lights then?

Still Life 'Beer & Crisps' - A study in retirement. Note the juxtaposition of the already pulled pints and the beer engines - an allegory of one's transition through the ethereal realm twixt the natal experience and the call of the Grim Reaper.
