The Retirement Thread

[ColinJ]

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.

I think they probably need a rest!

Good luck with them. Painful feet are, er, well, a right pain.

I don't have much excuse not to walk. I am surrounded by lovely nearby hills. They are not quite as fine as those in Scotland, the Dales etc. but they are way better than the scenery that 90% of the population of the UK have in their area.

It is very damp here today so I think that I will take my own advice and walk to the station and Aldi.

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.

Or sometimes a cuppa.....

Waiting in the George for MrsD's hairdresser to finish.

Normal service has been resumed.

In the Aggi, waiting for fish and chips to arrive.

Well, Sainsbury's have delivered. I have had to 'phone customer services again.
One order of portobello mushrooms was missing altogether, and a box of teabags delivered like this---

I am being refunded for both items.

Just had an unexpected delivery. Knock on the door and a delivery driver with a large and heavy parcel. Opened it up to find it’s an Edinburgh Beer Box🍺 an advent calendar containing 24 cans of beer. There’s beers from Campervan, Bellfield, Cross Borders, Stewart Brewing and others. What a lovely surprise 😎😁 Stroll on December 1st
