The Retirement Thread

[Dave7]

Morning all, sunshine and showers forecast. Heading down to Speyside today for trip to the Highland Wildlife Park, should be quiet this week as most schools don’t start their half term until next week.

Speyside!!!! Ooohh, get me some nice malt whisky while you are there please

Re the hearing aid !!!
The Doc told us that NHS clinic is closed and the best she could do was write to them asking for an appointment.
So......this morning I decided to phone (nothing ventured, nothing gained etc ).
Got through, no problems, appointment at 10.30 tomorrow.
And then we had to phone the stone deaf aunty to try and explain (Her phone
flashes, she picks it up, can't hear, gets upset and slams it down).
my head aches.

Ooh. The highlight today is...... tomorrow is bin day, so MR WD is putting the bins out. Is there no end to the excitement?

Just got back from town and have cut the lawns. They never stop growing down here!
Seriously, I have to cut them every month - right through winter.

That's OK if you can
round here the lawn in the back grows all winter - but the ground is too wet to mow it
by the time we get a dry spell in spring it will be 6 inches high!!!

 

[Drago]

Which is 5 inches higher than Dirks love lolly when he thinks dirty thoughts

Suppose you fell through the door as you went past, as though grabbed by an unseen force.

You could always help him

Good afternoon. Lovely weather here so off for a ride after I have digested my lunch. Must make the most of the weather as it won't last.

Grey, blue and brown have been emptied. I need to get them in........can I spin this out to fill the afternoon?

Don't be ridiculous.

Nackered. Strong winds and no legs. Absolutely nothing to give. I think I may need a day or two of recovery. Got totally blitzed on Sunday and it's taken its toll.

I will clean out the gutter, get the bins in and then I'm slobbing for the rest of the day.

It's not my turn to cook either 😄

Good man. Slobbing is good.
