The Retirement Thread

[screenman]

Morning all, nursing duties yesterday as Pam has a nasty cold, see what today brings but a ride would be nice if even a wet one. Watched some good Youtube last night done by a long distance cyclist from around these parts, amazing the things you see on a video that you just drive past without noticing.

I'm inclined to forget about YouTube as a source of interesting stuff. Must have a look when I'm bored.

...........and the rain has arrived. If there's ice underneath I can imagine the chaos on the roads!

Another day of de-cluttering in prospect - we're moving house and 20 years here has amassed a LOT of stuff .... not just bike related (4 machines here, 3 at the self-store unit . . . . but was 16 machines at one time )

Morning. I can see clear sky at the moment.

I think I will go and make another

Despite promising myself a lay in I was up early. Muttley walked, house tidied, going to have a cup of Clooneys then a bit of bass practice.

I rarely look although MrsD does some research on it (fortunately with headphones in).
Last week a fellow LFC fan gave me some links which I checked. Amazing the stuff you can get on there.....it was excellent.

All togged up and I am off out for an hour, it has just started chucking it down with rain, but hey ho, we get what we are given.

What a filthy morning. Rain was (I am told) constant through the night.......once my head hits the pillow thats it, I am out like a light.
I think it has actually stopped raining now but it is officially 'orrible out there. One of those days when I am glad I don't have a dog that needs walking

Good morning all. It's been raining since 5.00pm yesterday. I know this because we were completely soaked walking from Ewood to the car park following one of the worst games of football I have seen in years.

I had no inclination to go online yesterday, so I didn't! Also decided yesterday I wouldn't ride today. A wise choice. I was simply nackered for some unknown reason. Anyway back now and raring to go.

The only thing I have on is to meet up with my best friend and give her her birthday present. This I am very much looking forward to. Oh yes I also have to visit Argos - a long story I may regale you all with later!

Still raining off and on here and the temp has dropped as well.

I have a very dirty bike, along with some rather filthy wet cycle clothing, I also have a huge smile on my face, I enjoyed that ride. Only 18 miles but it will do for today, back to nursing duties for the rest of the day.

Well well. No idea why but I always had you down as another Yorkshire lad. North Baddesly!! Sounds nice and quite close to some lovely countryside & coastal areas.
