The Retirement Thread

Mo.........a question if I may. Do you eat anything before you walk ? You mention porrige after your walk. I dont enjoy eating early but have to force some cereal down for some energy.

No, just a coffee before I go out then enjoy my breakfast when I get back. Porridge simmering now. 6.5 miles done including a bit of hills to keep me warm.

I know the feeling only to well. 4.00am wake up is quite usual for me. Not good, you have my sympathies.

I am sleeping more than ever, had an hour yesterday afteroon, went to bed at 10pm and have just got up, this seems to have been my pattern since shutdown, may be it is my coping mechanism kicking in.

Morning all, a broken nights sleep for us as well last night. Next door had an ambulance turn up at about 4am which woke us up. I did get back to sleep at some point, waking again at 7.30.
Now on the tea and contemplating taking the dog out. Another quick ride out a little later, but with long sleeves today as it is quite a bit cooler.

6.5 is a good distance Mo.
MrsD rose late so our walk has beem delayed an hour . Fortunately it appears the whole nation is sleeping late these mornings.

Morning all

Woken up at 2am by the wheelie bins blowing over.
Woken up at 3am by the power coming on again after a power cut, causing the doorbell to ring.
Ditto at 4.30am.
Think I might need an afternoon nap to catch up.

@welsh dragon .
Just reying to your question in the thread the Mods closed down.
Warringon hospital (which is big) has a complete ban on virtually all visiting.
MrsDs cousin's wife just died aged 61. She was in hospital for 4 weeks and the hubby was not allowed to visit her.
Even for childbirth only the partner is allowed to visit.
In Cumbria a relative's wife was in for 4 days and even the husband was not allowed in.

Well you will live in those dreadful god forsaken places

Back from our walk which I really enjoyed. Strange but it seemed quite tough and I thought it must be at least 3 miles. Sadly it was just 2.5 miles.
Maybe that was because it was quite chilly and windy. I even wore my skull cap all the way round.
