The Retirement Thread

[numbnuts]

Thank you Postie.

The frequent peeing is a PITA and I've been told to up fluid intake to 3L per day.

Do they squirt the gel 'up'?

Sorry this is a bit gruesome but hey-ho it's a retirement issue for me.

Gel before catheter, but never gel to remover and I've had a few and also done self catheterisation, but I was shown by a nurse.

That was a good Midsomer Murders. Even had bikes in it.

Off for a 15 minute wander round the streets for some fresh air now.

Are there any bikes left in working order/condition.Or have they all had their tyres stabbed/cables cut/tubes bent?

Good morning all fellow retirees.
Wordle in 6
It's a bit misty out there at the moment.
I have an appointment at the chiropractor later this morning for a 3 monthly MOT. A bit of manipulation and cracking.

Some last minute packing , as MrsP and myself are off to Amsterdam tomorrow morning on the Eurostar from St.Pancras for a long weekend.
MrsP has for many years wanted to see the Tulip fields in full bloom, so this year, 41 years after we last went to the Netherlands we are going back.

Enjoy your day everyone

Morning. Another chilly but bright start.

Bit of a struggle with Wordle but made it in 5.

Off for a walk soon and I’ll stick the blue bin out when I get back.

Good morning all.
Went to bed late last night due to watching LFC hammer ManU..... stupidly still woke up at 0530, so annoying.

Good sunny morning from Lancashire. Another beautiful day has dawned and I'm rather looking forward to it. Good sleep following my newish routine, 5½ hours, wake up, brew, another 1½ hours. Good.

One of my best cycling buddies has a broken wrist. Broke it in January and diagnosed end of March - that's his responsibility not the NHS. He is as one might imagine mightily pissed off. Minimum six weeks off the bike. Couple of us are putting in a 30/35 mile loop this morning to meet him for coffee.

Meeting about hiring a social club at 2.00pm and then eye test at 3.25. I need to find my distance glasses to take with me!

Right must fly. Glasses to find, brekkie to eat, minor tidying and a route to plan. Finding a way to take 30 miles to reach somewhere that's about 6 miles from home isn't as easy as it sounds.

Wordle in five and started a thread on cycle insurance. Whoah! Will I survive?

Good morning folks, yoga this morning, maybe out to lunch later, I've been very busy the last couple of weeks now it seems I've not a lot to do.

Good morning folks, rain overnight but looks promising for this evening at the Park. On yesterday’s walk we crossed the small cricket ground hidden inside Delph Woods, good to see a couple of youth teams playing.
Off for a jog along the red brick road soon, but coffee awaits. Have a peaceful day folks ☕️☀️👍
