The Retirement Thread

[Deleted member 1258]

By gum you get round a few garden centres.Went toGreen Acres garden centre.at Peckleton Not on the bike though as I can’t fit a 15KG bottle of Butane gas ⛽ in my jersey pocket.

I cut the ride short because of the weather, originally I was heading for Attfields farm Shop between Cosby and Countesthorpe, if I'm just going to visit the cafe I'll take the bike, if I've got my Good Lady with me or I want to buy plants and stuff I'll use the car, though I have been known to arrive home from a bike ride with bags of plants hanging off my handlebars. I've been to GreenAcres, though its not one I use regularly.

We were supposed to get 45 mph winds but its not arrived. We had 5 minutes when it threatened but that was it.
I hope it doesn't arrive a day late and ruin my planned ride.

Gust of Force 12 here just over 70 mph from the South West. 💨💨💨

I've just had a power nap, now cooking tea, I might be down the chippy shortly.

Weird here. Super heavy gusts one minute, still air the next. And the weather is doing the same too.

Bitterly cold wind started about 4.00pm. Rain starting and very cold. Here we go again.

Cod baked in the oven, chips from the chippy, peas, a cuppa and fruit afterwards.

Dear God, who'd have thought, 50 years ago, that I'd be whinging about that?
