The Retirement Thread

[Paulus]

Good morning from a cloudy Barnet.
Our son is having a skip delivered today, I might have to go down to his place to supervise for a while as he is playing squash mid morning. He has a load of stuff in the attic that needs to go, he is in the process of selling his place.
That'll give me the chance of a bike ride

Was that the Man with the Suitcase ?

I've just looked it up, the series went to 120 episodes.

It had a great theme tune

I used to really enjoy Man in a Suitcase and the original Van derValk (spelling ??)

With the way food prices are going, I might shove them in the pot if things get any worse

EDITED. I shouldn't have said what I said.

The Guardian ran an article yesterday reporting the south-east may run out of water by 2050 and the UK is expected to be short of 4 billion litres of water..........per day.

There are times when I read the news and am thankful to be 68.

You'll only be in your late nineties, no age really.

I went to Lidl last week, got a load of very nice beers and picked up a bottle of the " Ben Brachan " peaty whisky. It was £16 or thereabouts.
