The Retirement Thread

[Mo1959]

Morning. I looked in earlier but most sensible people would still be in their beds.

Little head torch 3 mile very gentle jog. I knew the legs didn't feel great so just concentrated on keeping the heart rate and breathing easy instead. Quite enjoyed it.

We finally cut down the tomatoe 🍅 vines yesterday. There were still lots of tomatoes but they were green and I doubt they would ripen now. I even found a lobe strawberry 🍓 on one of the strawberry plants. It's ripe as well

I've still got lots of green tomatoes. I'm thinking green tomato chutney.

Good morning people,
Yesterday afternoon I went for a slow walk around Pocket Park for a systems test. I managed 2K, a bit short of breath and achy but generally ok. My attempt earlier in the afternoon was short lived, as I fell asleep while putting my walking shoes on 😄
Have a peaceful day folks ☕️☀️👍

I tried my new coconut and shea natural shampoo bar on my hair this morning. Quite impressed with how much it lathered up and a nice smell too and no nasty SLS or parabens in it.

I think I’ll catch up on last night’s Doc Martin before All Creatures Great and Small.

We watched on catchup. I believe next weeks is the last ever.
Been a good series really.

Yes, I agree. Probably one of the best I think. I am presuming he is going to head off to take up the offer of the new job and that might be how they end it.

Looks that way. Lots of good main characters in the series.

I can't get into this new All Creatures. I love the books, in fact I'm in the middle of reading them all again for about the tenth time and I loved the original Christopher Timothy version but this new one seems to be lacking something.

I'm the opposite as I'm preferring the new characters. I thought last night's was excellent again.

Quite bright here.
We are hoping we are up to doing a "Dirk" later and have fish n chips (one portion between us though).
See how we feel nearer lunch time. Ours will be takeaway though.

Oh well. So much for it not raining today

I'm not sure it's far away here either.
