The Retirement Thread

I made Mr WD bring some wood and kindling in tonight. It is going to be cold and wet tomorrow so i might have a small fire.

@welsh dragon yes I was thinking similar, it's just to take the chill off the evening air.

I stood strong.

Good man. My Mrs P declared the heating's not working again, and "I've checked the thermostat so don't tell me that's the problem" - this is a regular occurrence.

I dutifully stuck my head in the boiler cupboard and checked the settings. Then turned the thermostat up from 19 to 20C............ boiler fired up immediately. This will continue to be a source of discussion until March or April.

 

[PaulSB]

Oh, forgot. Morning everyone, it's peeing down here

Bad man.

Good morning. Dull, dark and decidedly chilly here. I have started a small fire. I can let it die down of it warms up at all, but it looks like rain will be here for most of the day.

Well yesterday headed down to Gibraltar for the day, had a great day, lunch in the marina, walk about the town, shopping at Morrison's for those things you miss. Then heading back across the border, wifey who looks after the passports in case I lose mine , exclaims, they're gone, she either lost them or was dipped, probably in Morrison's. So today is going to be organising new passports with the embassy or whoever. At least the sun is shining.

Good morning, a bright and sunny one, I was putting washing out at seven this morning in my dressing gown and its definitely a tad chilly,

Morning all. Been very busy the last couple of days, not much time for the interweb. Today looks like it's going to be another busy day, 2 ton of hedge clippings to skip
BTW no central heating on yet!

Oh no. Bad news. I hope you get things sorted quickly.

Morning run done. Was cold, so started off with my knackered jogging hoodie, only to be roasting within a mile. Quick download then my customary mouthful of George Clooneys hot juices.

 

[PaulSB]

Been up to allotment to get bunch of flowers hidden in greenhouse, present wrapped, card written. This can't go wrong, can it?

 

[PaulSB]

Central heating is on........
