They should grow up. If they'd proven that they could behave themselves then they would be trusted with the same degree of autonomy. But they can't nring themselves to behave like the grown up they so desperately believe themselves to be, and they've only themselves to blame for that.
Meanwhile, I think we should just carry on dicussing Y fronts, bloomers, Accy's tweeds, Jon Anderson, pub lunches, and NOT GOING TO WORK!!! That last bit is why they're so bitter
Still a bit dull here. I want to sit in the garden and let Bruce hqve a run whike I peruse the new Jack Reacher book,

Went to put some rubbish out and I can feel very fine rain. Yes I have a bin as well. In fact I am waiting for a new red bin for plastic and metal items to arrive. Can I mention that it's red without anyone seeing political connotations in that?

Oi, I resemble that remark.
I'm preparing for the day in can go. Phase 1 involves sitting on a park bench and shouting at kids, telling them to behave and keep quiet.

Well, so far my retirement day consisted of...
Up at 0600hrs.
Make Mrs D's lunch and a travel mug of coffee.
Clean myself up.
Feed Bruce, let him in the garden for a Forest Gump.
Feed Mini D, oversee her taking her tablet and morning inhaler.
Settle down with a Clooney's and an oaty bar.
Brush Mini D's hair and put it in a ponytail.
Walk Mini D a few humdred yards to her friends house, and they walk to school together. I carried Bruce along for the ride.
Returned home, flopped into my armchair where Ive remained ever since.

Hes already got hold of some workmoapers that Mrs D left on the sofa. Im a bit of a neat freak, so took great schadenfreude at that.

We are fighting the good fight with spiders at the moment. We have some anti spider spray that Mr WD is spraying around at the moment. I also heard that stuff like lavender deters them as they don't like the smell. And basil and lemon balm is the same

I would not describe myself as a "neat freak", but, I am reasonably tidy. Mrs @BoldonLad THINKS she is very tidy, but, in reality, is rather messy. I have more sense than to comment on it however
I do get a degree of (quiet) enjoyment, when she misplaces her glasses, yet again
