The Retirement Thread

[BoldonLad]

We've had showers this afternoon, the washing's been brought in and put on the clothes horse, the annoying thing is that the showers aren't heavy enough or frequent enough to do any more than dampen the surface. My backs a lot more comfortable this afternoon, the key seems to be keep moving, if I sit still too long it seizes up.

Mrs @BoldonLad hurt her back some weeks ago (playing basket ball, with 12 year old grandson). Physio told her exactly that, ie, although the natural reaction is not to move, in case it hurts, the key is to keep moving, and not loose mobility. Seems to have worked, Mrs @BoldonLad is back on her bike.

That sounds about right. The best I've had with my back over the years is take pain killers and do exercise. At the time I was doing yoga and cycling about a 100 mile a week, the response wasn't a lot better with my hip.

Mrs @BoldonLad did take pain killers (paracetamol) too.

MrsD treated me to posh fish and chips.

Cooked in a garlic butter sauce.

Yes, I'm using Paracetamol and Dog Oil, which isn't doing much but every little helps.

I can’t face fish that still looks like a fish I couldn’t eat that I’m afraid.

It doesn't look cooked to me, and I definitely don't want the head and tail on the plate.

That looks as if given the kiss of life it would start flapping it’s tail and fins

It'll see me through to my next meal.

I'm the opposite. I like my food to be real.

Just put it back in the water and it will swim away.
