The Retirement Thread

[PaulSB]

Still watching the tennis. Interesting to see Serena Williams back at the age of 40. I’ve never been keen on the Williams sisters so hoping Tan wins.

Me neither. I find their personalities unnecessarily aggressive which for me deflects from their obvious ability.

I've seen how much some folk use on cereals, especially at breakfast.

??? Our problem with cereals is the carer, she always puts too much on. My question is, why did you start this, why are we having this discussion and where is it going? I'm totally confused.

I like Vanilla flavoured soya milk / Oat milk. It works well with Porridge and cereals. I did try some when I was mashing spuds, it was " different "
On the subject of mashed spuds, I saw a cookery program where the Professional chef was saying he used 1/2 kg of butter to 1kg of potato 😮

We got our trip into town done this morning, my Good lady has got all her shopping done for a while, I must fettle one of the wheelchair brakes a bit more, it was rubbing so I backed it off a couple of turns, now its not holding when we're on the bus and the chair is moving round, today I was holding the chair in place with my foot. its been gray and blowing a hoolie all afternoon, it blew my pots of sweet peas over at one point, they'll have to go into the shed if it don't calm down.

Night night everyone

Good morning folks,
Couldn’t woke and couldn’t get back to sleep so thought I’d check in before Mo 😉
Off for a run this morning, the 10k I entered is on the 10th July and I need to make sure I’m ready. A cycle to the Park this evening to look after granddaughter while mummy runs.
Have a peaceful day folks ☀️😎☕️

Morning. Wasn’t sleeping either so a cuppa then out for a wander. Might be a shower so I either wear a light jacket and risk sweating or just get wet if it comes on.

Failed at Wordle this morning.

Good morning. Slept till 5.30 and woke to find Mrs P missing. She was downstairs and been awake half the night. She's in the spare room now so I have to be very, very, very quiet.

It's rained all night and forecast is the same from 11.00. Cycling cancelled. I have two committee meetings tonight but that apart zilch I need to do. Housework will have to be done very quietly.

Now I expect you lot to behave. No noise, read a book and be quiet. Got it? 🤫🤫

Good day good folk.
I stayed up to watch the tennis (late for me).
Anyone else think that Williams, when not happy, looks like Mike Tyson.
As for her sister....... imagine waking up next to that......you could have a heart attack.

Belated Fathers day present.
I am now the 'proud' owner of an Amazon Fire 10 tablet.
All I have to do is work out how to use it ie what are its actual benefits
