The Retirement Thread

Yes, more stretching than poses and plenty of core work, though I did fail on the shoulder stand, my back wouldn't have it this time and I sat it out, its been another good workout, but Peters classes are usually a good workout.

You ever take it home with you, trying to get the moves right.
When you're not working your way to the bottom of the laundry basket.

Unless I missed it, you didn’t mention the make/model of the earbuds?

I bought Anker earbuds, I also have one of their Bluetooth speakers. Not as good as my Sonos Roam, but a fraction of the price, and perfectly acceptable IMHO.

I have a pair of Anker “ Soundcore “ earbuds. They’re very good, there’s an dedicated hearing test facility in the Soundcore app that iterates through a range of frequencies and produces a sonogram of your hearing.

I used to, but haven't for a while.

They appear to be the wrong size and colour for £5 notes. You sure they're genuine?

They say they are genuine.......but only of value if spent in Russia.

Yes, I am very pleased with my Anker earbuds. They are the only earbuds I have owned, so, nothing to compare them with.

Roubles

I think I need a new monitor this thing appeared in my toolbar today and it seems to be getting bigger, according to the internet it is a pixel bleed and can't be fixed and will get worse more expense.......

Nobody knows the roubles I've seen.

There seem to be multiple models in that product line, ranging from half what I paid to several times what I paid, so one of us got a bargain but I'm not sure which one! Which model have you got?

I have been playing about with the 'Equalizer Buddy' app to smooth out the sound of my earbuds. Early results are very good, though it is quite a complex app so it will take me some time to get the best results. It does confirm what I suspected though - that I can't really hear anything above 10 kHz now.

I cycled over to Hebden Bridge where it turned out that there was a price to pay for the meal that I was being offered... My pal and I had started to make 2 raised beds for her allotment just as Covid-19 hit us and we went into lockdown, so they never got finished. She completed the first one herself between lockdowns last year, and we did the second one this afternoon. She has been given a battery-powered drill-driver. I was very impressed with it. I didn't have any problems with it once I had got used to modulating the torque to avoid the bit slipping in the screwhead once it was all the way in.

The after-woodwork meal was very nice.

It was very chilly riding home at sunset. I can officially say that I am fed up with these cold north-easterly winds now. Let them stop ASAP!
