The Retirement Thread

[Drago]

Dog walked. Still very grey, but strangely still and calm.

Bright and sunny and we are off out for brekkie and a spot of retail.

Dogs get like that when they are old....

Good morning, dull and grey here. I had a bit of a disturbed night last night, I seem to be on the end of the lurgy, some days my throats sore and tickly, some days I'm OK, some nights I sleep through without coughing and some nights I wake up in the night coughing. Its gone on far to long and its about time it cleared off and left me alone.

It seems the older we get, the harder it is to fight these things off.

This thing is both annoying and persistent, I rarely get coughs and colds, and normally clear them quite quickly, the way this one is hanging about is driving me up the wall

Good morning all. Program for today: make a whelping box for my granddaughter's dog who is having puppies in two weeks time and a bit of shopping in Matalan.
It was good to go for a 20 miles ride yesterday in beautiful weather.
My grandson also wants me to make a toy box for his daughter for Christmas but plenty of time for that yet.

Off for a walk up to Culmestock Beacon and Blackdown Common this morning followed by a light pub lunch.

Not nice here, so housework beckons, then some reading i think and maybe even a film.

We’re in Oakmount Mill, Burnley. Mrs OFT upstairs browsing through dressmaking patterns, so I’m downstairs in the cafe drinking a coffee and typing this having resisted looking at the breakfast menu.
No idea what we’re doing next. She’s told me me but I’ve forgotten

Culmstock Beacon - built in 1588 to warn of the Spanish Armada.

Oh no. Hope Mrs P feels better soon.

Thank you. She is better this morning, up and about. Still coughing well!

Off to visit our first born in his new Manchester house this afternoon

 

[Dirk]

Tis lunchtime.

I wonder if it would still work now with the EU fisherman

Seemed to be in perfect working order to me.
