The Retirement Thread

[Deleted member 1258]

It's nice in the winter, sometimes we've got 3 miles of sand to ourselves. Bit different in July and August!

I was brought up on the outskirts of Folkestone, between the countryside and the seaside, I've always liked to be beside the sea, and in the past I've done seaside holidays where, when you get on the beach, you have trouble finding a spot bigger than a postage stamp to sit on, not what I wanted but you can't do a seaside holiday without taking the kids on the beach.

No, but its within cycling range.

The beahces at Barmouth are like that when all the holidaymakers bugger off back home. Miles and miles of empty beaches. Best time of year there.

Most of my beaches are empty when I go fishing...........I go in the middle of the night

Rode there two weeks ago and stayed over, very pleasant.

@johnblack Whereabouts in Sarf Northants are you? Forgive me if I've asked before, it's an age thing. PM me if you don't want to say on the forum.

Near Towcester. Rode out to Hook Norton for the brewery tour, stayed over in Norton because riding back would have been plain stupid.

Holy Trump, you're not far from me!

He can probably smell your y fronts!

 

[Drago]

He can probably see the haze on the horizon from there.

More local excitement. Been hearing a fair amount of sirens. A transit van has gone off the road and ploughed into one of the nearby chicken farms. God knows how he managed that as it's not right at the road side. Hope he's not taken ill at the wheel. No doubt the local grapevine will update soon.

He'll have been overcome with Y front fumes and fainted.

Been shooting and enjoyed it.
