The Retirement Thread

[Dave7]

Another miserable weather type day here. I see heavy rain and strong wind is forcast.
Enjoyed my coffee but confess to being a tad worried** as I used to drink, maybe, one cup every month or so. Now I have the machine its most mornings.
**What worries me is.....could I be turning into a cross between Drago & Welsh Dragon ?........a terrible thought-her temper and his wind, very scary.
Off to do my exercises then will watch some golf from Dubai.

Sort it out before I get up there, would you? Visiting my ancestral home today - well, a hospital in its environs, anyway

You can't beat coffee. Stop drinking that wishy washy muck called tea and come over to the dark side.

I will try my best.
When you say "your ancestral home" do you mean you were born in Warrington ?

 

[Dave7]

I'd rather get the bike out and go for a ride, though I do have a turbo, but don't use it very often.

What do you wear in this inclement weather?
Not bothered about your Y fronts etc....just the other stuff

Nah, I was born in Nantwich actually, but have been spending much time in Crewe, and now we have a new hospital to try. What fun.

Pam is not well, I pushed a slice of toast under the bedroom door for her how do you make a cup of tea? It is at times like this I realise I am not very domesticated, more the hunter gatherer type, time for a change at my age I think.

Morning fellow retirees. A grey, damp start to the day here. I shall be out with dog shortly and then a domestics day. The kitchen floor resembles a football pitch so needs washing. It's hard to keep it clean with a Collie and three cats padding about. Then I shall be doing a bit of shopping for essentials, including some bottles of ale for later on. Got to keep some things in perspective.

I've just got up........

Was the toast buttered or dry?

I know you will all be disgusted with me but after retiring last march I have accepted an offer to work April and May. Strange thing is I am finding the prospect quite scary:-) My excuse is we have had some unexpected expenses crop up.

Edit dew too Spillin misteak.

Does it not come ready buttered? I did try putting some cheese on it but it made a lot of mess in the bottom of the toaster.

 

[Banjo]

I'd give my left nut for a beer right now, but duty calls and I need to stay on top of my game.

Succesfull result I hope? I know you may not be able to give out info .

Turn the toaster on it's side!
