The Retirement Thread

So true.
It was stupid when it started and now its totally crazy stupid.
I was just reading that footballers will be wearing "black lives matter" on their shirts for the 1st game. What next ?

You mean the ones on £100k plus, a week?

Morning all, grey and damp here in the locked down lands of Sturgeon.

Crazy and ironic I say.

Not much planned today, just some tinkering with stuff.

 

[Dave7]

Right.....decision made.
I am organising a march in Warrington tomrrow and need YOU to join me.
There is a main road called Scotland Road. Named after a famous battle between Brits and Scots from god knows when.
To me it represents the oppression of the Scots.
We are going to tear the road up, destroy the name sign and hang the b*astard who chose that name.
After that we we choose another equally stupid idea to target.

There's a campaign to remove Bideford's strapline - 'The Little White Town'.

Holy Mary Mother of Trump! I've just discovered that Watling Street and Fosse Way were built by Roman slaves! I'm going to lead a mob to tear them up and throw them in the harbour immediately.

Both roads are close to me.Going out now to cover them with MDF.👷‍♂️👷‍♂️👷‍♂️

I think the whole of the United Kingdom should be pulled down as it was built on the exploitation of its colonies.

How far back should we go...

It is misty, murky and drizzly here. I took the hybrid for a bimble and realised when the mist came down I should really have had lights on. Oh well, I survived. Not a good day on the bike really as the old back is grumbling which then seems to affect the leg power which was close to non-existent. Just scraped a 12mph average.

Pull the plug and scuttle it, that way we can make a fortune by charging people to dive on it.

But were they built by slaves? I thought they'd established that the pyramid builders were't slaves.
