The Retirement Thread

[Dave7]

Bit late with my report, sorry .
Yesterday I made corned beef hash. It was a success AND most importantly we both had full portions.
Today I have to go to the post office.
Lots of tidying up to do plus lots of paperwork to sort.....shred/file/action. I hate it.
Cleaner is coming later. We put her off while we had that stomach bug.
She is really very good. Sadly (for us) she is pregnant. Not me, honest, but it means we will lose her for some time.

Daughter now has a dehumidifier in her flat, she does open the windows for ventilation but there are signs of mould on the walls, hopefully the dehumidifier will help with keep on top of it. I noticed that there’s a “ clothes drying “ setting and having read up on it, it can be quite effective.

They are good. I have one I stick on over the winter months and notice even on a really frosty day my windows barely have any condensation compared to some of the neighbours. They seem to warm the atmosphere slightly too.

Yikes. The wind has arrived and The heavens opened. Where did all that come from

Rain = check the clouds.
Wind = check your bloomers

Rain = check the clouds.
Wind = check your bloomers

when the wind starts blowing around my undergarments I know it is time to get some new ones

It was the American version, and yes, it lost a little in being transitioned from Sheffield to Buffalo. But we had a friend in the cast and they were all really good.

I think not having the songs used in the film soundtrack spoiled it a bit, but overall it was still a good night out.

Pleased you enjoyed 😊😊

It might be glorious but take care......there are some seriously dodgy people living there (so I am told )

Let me know where they are and I'll avoid them.

Shut up you

I don't have full details but he can normally be found in the pub at lunchtime quaffing local ale and shoving fish n chips or pie and roast etc down his neck.

I must start doing more walking again. Since I started cycling to the shops and to collect the Metro I have only been doing about 1 hour a week in total.

It is 2 days since we did our short walk on the local hill but my calf muscles still feel sore.

I need to work on my fitness. At the moment I am only fit for riding round in big circles with hills scattered around. Mind you, there are virtually no hills on tomorrow's circular loop from Garforth through York. It should be an easy 105 km (65 mile) spin on my singlespeed bike. We have a reasonable forecast for it.

I love walking but my right foot is still giving me grief. I've looked out my Nurokor machine and sitting with the pads on the soles of my feet just now.
