The Retirement Thread

[classic33]

Seriously ??
About 5 years old.
The one it replaced was 20+ years old, never leaked but was discoloured.

Aye
It wasn't a new replacement at the time it leaked. Rules out a few reasons I could think of.

Morning. Just back a 5 mile shuffle. Managing to keep the heart rate no higher than 130 means going incredibly slow but I'll persevere. It can take at least a month to start seeing results. At least it takes much less out of me doing this.

It was drizzling when I first went out but dry now and incredibly mild. We have rain by afternoon again though. I ended up watching an old black and white film with Sidney Poitier yesterday afternoon. It was actually quite good.

Good old Sid'......he made some excellent films.

"Lilies of the field"? That's the one he got his only Oscar for, I think. Well deserved.

Yes. That was the one. A nice easy watch. I enjoyed it.

Just watching Countryfile just now. It’s one man and his dog. Not much else on tonight so I might just read.

It's thundering, forked lightning, torrential rain and blowing a gale.

I'm reading at the moment. There is an old Vera on so I might watch that.

We've had a fab day weather wise. I even had the patio doors wide open. We also had some rain an hour of so ago.

I thought about Vera but it’s not long since I saw that one. Trying to decide if I want to catch up on Bloodlines. Maybe another night.
