The Retirement Thread

[Tenkaykev]

Walking through the shopping centre on the way to meeting friends for breakfast earlier today I noticed that they have an area cordoned off. It has a big screen, deckchairs and benches, plus a couple of stalls selling nibbles, ice cream and soft drinks. The big screen is showing Wimbledon, it’s free of charge so people can watch in air conditioned comfort. 🎾😎

I buy all my next stuff online as we just don't have a shop anywhere near here. The closest one is about 60 miles away.

Ours is about 600m away . One of the few upsides of living in a city . 😀

Did you know, Amazon now do a subscription service? I thought it may be useful for your Jeans, you could get a pair delivered every day/week/month*, without having to do anything

Hair cut, scrambled eggs on toast for lunch and now sat down for the tennis.

Tennis? That's only for switching to during the adverts in the TdF live coverage!

Ah, yes. I've never had enough cash to worry about that. 😘

Come at the wrong time for me, could have done with it 20 years ago lol

Never been too bothered about money and the amount the NHS has put aside in my pension over the years came as a real shock!

However much I get or pay tax on I'm still planning to be a genuine member of this thread

Can’t get into it this year I’m afraid. I don’t find road cycling a particularly good spectator sport.

I'm traumatized, my Good Lady had me push her round Primark. 😁

Great match. It’s yo-yod back and forward and hard to say who will win.

 

[Mo1959]

Enjoyed that. I’ll catch the final 12k of the cycling.
