The Retirement Thread

Good morning from a murky and damp Coventry, no cycling today, washing is on, dental check up this afternoon.

Good morning from a wet and windy Barnet.

The cats have gone out, but didn't look too happy.

Wordle in 4.

Morning. I had an early night and a restless sleep. Sore and stiff this morning but I’ll try and keep moving. Much milder and some rain due soon so I’ll just head out shortly for a gentle wander.

We have a new series of The Split starting tonight with Nicola Walker so I’ll enjoy that.

Morning folks wet n windy in Brora. Think my sea weed compost bin will be full soon as i keep bringing some back from the beach. According to Bob Flowerdew pee'ing on compost helps the activation process....so yesterday i added some of that
Tomatoes have been shivering by the window sill...reckon i'll sow them later next year. Finding it difficult to buy plants i like as delivery charges are far too high. I would like an oregon thornless black berry as it has attractive leaves which colour up in the autumn as well as fruit but delivered its around £40

Morning all

Not so cold last night - it rained a couple of times.
Hitching up in a couple of hours and then towing up the M5/M6 to the Peak District. We're stopping at Hulme End for a week and meeting up with old friends and relatives on a couple of days.

Good morning folks,
Our rain gauge ( the puddle on the corner of the road opposite) shows lots of rail last night, with more forecast for later today. I’ll nip out at some stage and get a little run in.
Off to do Wordle now, have a good day 👍☕️

Morning. Back to grey, damp miserable weather for us as well.

Can't wait for the Split tonight. So excited

Stay safe peeps

Good morning. 'Tis wet, windy and cold, I have sniffles, a sore throat and didn't sleep well. This apart it's all hunky dory! 🤣

So today? Nothing planned but I must sow brassicas and there is some minor DIY to attend to. I really must do this to avoid having to a sunny day.

Successfully urdled of various types. I'm really getting in to AntiWordle at the moment. I've got a method and have managed 11, 12, 10 the last three days. Learned five new words this morning which I'll never use. I find it interesting how one begins to see the likely word and slowly be funnelled towards it as the choices reduce.

I haven't heard of Split? Which channel and what is the basic storyline?

BBC1. It's the 3rd and last series I think. I highly recommend you watch the first 2.

Morning all. A REALLY heavy sleep last night.
Warmer (less cold) today but grey sky and much rain.
I think I fancy cheese on toast for breckie.

It seems to be damp and miserable across the country so I thought I'd give you all a touch of spring. Two Hellebores from the garden. The white one we've had for years and the pics were taken 30 seconds apart from different angles. The crimson/ruby was a 40th Wedding Anniversary gift two years ago. I decided to continue growing it in a pot so we can have it by the back door to enjoy every time we go in or out. 57 flowers this year.

Looking forward to this second series - hoping it is as good as the first.

Think it might actually be the third. Final one I believe. I always enjoy anything Nicola Walker is in.

She was killed off in the detective series Unforgotten and I read something a few days ago about who her replacement was rumoured to be, but damned if I can remember now. Another excellent series.
