The Retirement Thread

[IaninSheffield]

Anyone know if a single divan base will fit in the back of a Toyota Yaris?

You might have more success getting a Yaris into the drawer of a divan base 😉

I have risen!

You snooze you lose as they say.

Ooooh I'm not sure about that. Snoozing is a big part of retirement and that is most definitely a win!! 😄

No idea but I wouldn't mind watching 😄

Most divan bases are pretty simple things. It's probably screwed at each corner, almost certainly if it was flat pack originally. Taken apart it could probably be squeezed in.

Just be aware of resting one end actually touching the windscreen. I did that once and the windscreen split.

I have woken after a good night's sleep. Mrs P appears not to have slept as she departed to the spare room at some point!

Good morning. 8C, dry and light winds. Feels quite mild which is odd at 8C - been getting that a lot recently.

Time for the Wednesday weigh in for my weight loss group. Then coffee and porridge.

Riding at 09.00 with my new wheels. Mrs P is hosting her book group tonight. Rovers are at home which is good as I won't be banished to another part of the house.

Good morning, yet another wet one, washings on the cloths horse this morning, a spot of lunch then its down the club this afternoon, and I've got the housework to finish off.

Good plan. My ride this morning may force a snooze on me.

 

[PaulSB]

Well, well, well..........Wednesday weigh in welcomed. Lots of "w's" there! 69kg which is the lightest I've been in a long, long time. Quite surprised as I can't say I've behaved very well recently!

Good morning - A U3A walk followed by pub grub today. I'm hoping we won't get too much rain.

Have the best possible day.

Mornin' folks.

I’ll probably have to construct my new bed if I want a snooze! Lol. It’s an oak sleigh bed with slatted base and there is some assembly required!

Morning all

Cover inside out, one hand either corner of the closed end, with the cover stowed up either arm. Then get the duvet and shake the cover down over the duvet.

Nowt to it.

Sounds simple and thats what I do BUT my duvet has other ideas. I think a duvet is like a wife, it has to learn who is the boss it knows its the boss

It will, definitely.
You may have to borrow PaulSBs chain saw but eventually it will fit.
Hope this has been helpful
