The Retirement Thread

[gavroche]

Salut tout le monde. At our daughter near Stoke at the moment and back home later. My wife is staying and going to Devon with our other daughter tomorrow for two weeks so it will only be Molly and me at home. That means I won't be able to go for long rides as I don't want Molly to be on her own for too long.
We saw Les Miserables last night and it was fantastic. If you haven't seen it, I strongly recommend it.
Back at the Ibis Hotel, some stupid BMW w***er had parked his car right behind me so we couldn't get out. We had to wait one a half hour before he turned up to move his car. The plus side is that he didn't pay the £8 charge so he will get a £60 fine now according to the hotel receptionist.

I'm jealous

I think it was lying! Just back a walk and, even sauntering along as slowly as possible it was really uncomfortable. Jammies on now and not moving again.

Pj's sound like a good idea. Flumping sounds like a great thing to do at the moment

Cheaper than taking the car.
Who knows how many packets you'd bring back.

Similar, I'm cooking a chicken, to go with a fresh salad for tea.

We've had roast pork, jacket spud and mixed veg.

 

[numbnuts]

I couldn't be arsed to cook, so cheese and onion sandwich and baked custard

 

[PaulSB]

Flumping? New expression. I do now have a vision of @welsh dragon walking to the shops in her PJs.

Tea? Neither of us can be arsed. It's not my turn to cook but Mrs P has suggested I should. ☹️ Omelette and salad it will be.

We have CLOUDS!

@Dave7 Your boy Tyler Morton has a lot to learn but he came up with a sublime pass to start the move which created our winner.
