The Retirement Thread

[numbnuts]

We have had nine bikes and two motor bikes stolen in two weeks within a 400 yard radius from my place, it's only a matter of time and I can't get insurance as the garage is over a 100 yards away and not on my property

That's the most plausible explanation.

Okay, why'd the radio play it!

Can't you keep your bike in your flat?

Road bike, MTB, trike, kayak, and a ton on fishing gear, no it ain't going to fit.
The garage, has a garage security anchor lock on the outside and alarm inside that sends a text massage to my phone, but according to a report there are four guys doing this so I would have to confront them on my own. All the bikes/tikes and kayak are locked to the walls, it won't stop them, but will slow them down.

Is that to relax the phone before it displays the message for you to read?

Must get off this screen before I get a headache. Think I’ll pop out for a short leg stretch before the rugby.

Weird!
I've had the tune 'I'll Do Anything' from Oliver! as an ear worm this morning. Not mentioned it to MrsD or heard it on the radio this morning.
5 minutes ago, MrsD suddenly burst out singing it.
How does that happen?

When 2 people are in love anything is possible "I'll do anything for you dear anything ! ANYTHING ! ANYTHING ! for you " Is she dropping a heavy hint for Valentines ?

I just needed 3 tries to finish watching a stage of the Tour of Valencia. I dozed off, woke up after it had finished, wound it back, tried again, dozed off, wound it...

Now watching the next stage. 11 km to go and keeping myself awake by doing this!

Just planted my chilli seeds for this season.
Having a go with Naga and Scotch Bonnets this year along with my usual ones.

Are they the very hot ones ?? How do you eat them ??

2.7 miles around the town but the heavens opened when I was right up the top of the town so a mile or so home in heavy, driving rain. Bottom half and socks changed for dry and just plonked down to watch the rugby.

I don’t know when I last walked down the High Street on a Saturday afternoon, but the traffic is horrendous. Much worse than it used to be. We haven’t got a hope in hell of sorting climate change while so many people are unwilling to give up their cars.
