The Retirement Thread

Doggie walked. Bit quieter on the beach now at this time of year.

Happy dog!

Good afternoon all. Just stopped for a sandwich, been busy on the garden project this morning ( take note numbnuts ) Going for a little ride to get some shopping, and then carry on with the good work. Got my brother staying with us for a couple of days, so there might will be beer tonight.

We are having braised beef and carrots with mashed potatoes. Should be ready in a couple of hours

Cutting the lawns this afternoon, got the front one done then thought - 'I can't be arsed with the rear today' - so lawnmower went back in the shed. I'll get it done before the weekend, as we are away in the van again on Monday.

Snoozed off for an hour with a Labrador on my feet - quality doggy time for me Mrs D has a Hospital appointment at half four. We don't have anyone to babysit Mini D, so very regrettably I'm going to have to break out the dirty diesel and leave the Smart car in the garage.

Not big enough for both of you then?

Just back from 65 miles avg 16. Pleased with that. For the first time in ages we had a full set - meaning all five of the Silver Eagles turned out plus the young woman who acts as our carer!!!!

On one particularly daft old fart ride she did remark "at least when there's five of you you have a full set of senses." Today's ride was an excellent mix of daft old codgers banter, wisdom and experience - all at pensioners pace

@Drago used my Planet X overshoes for the first time. Very pleased. Thanks for the tip.

One tries to pace oneself.
