The Retirement Thread

[welsh dragon]

I think we might have a new prime minister this afternoon. Here’s hoping he makes a decent job compared to what we’ve had. I don’t think Penny Mordaunt is going to get enough backers and Boris has finally done something sensible and decided against having another go.

It will be Sunak. The best of the bunch

I've wanted to visit the zoo since it was on TV

Well worth it - in 6 hours we saw around 90% of all the critters.

Good to visit a conservation zoo too.

Sounds Good.

My view is more , best of a bad bunch 😂😂😂😀.

It will be a shoe in as they will make sure there there isn’t another contested vote by Tory party members because they know Sunak cannot win one against an even more right wing candidate.

I've phoned them several times, the last at eleven o clock, she was going to find out where the care was but hasn't got to us.

I phoned at half eleven, apparently my Good Ladies carer went home sick and "they are trying to get someone to her".

Still waiting for my Good Ladies carer, should have been here at half seven.

That is just not good enough imo.

And they wonder why people complain.
If they kept you informed, it'd be one thing in their favour. But not replying is another thing altogether.

Definitely, we're still waiting. They finally phoned my good lady at quarter to twelve.

Cheers . I thought it could have been . Yes I know his last couple of years were not good 😌. The way this pic came up was, there was a discussion on hiking dinghys flat ie the deck of the boat parallel with the water ( flat is fast 😀 ) and people were posting pics of sailors doing it well . Then he posted this pic saying THIS is what you call flat 😂😂😀

I had a text earlier from BiL asking to meet up for lunch about 10 miles away from me at 12.30. I said ok and made my way there and duly arrived at 12.25. I waited and waited and no sign from them so I phoned him , asking where they were, only to be told it was for tomorrow.
That will teach me to read the text properly next time.

Sunak has got it then.

Well, back from a walk / run along the trailway and through the woods. Lots of children in wellies paddling in the small stream, and the perennial favourite rope swing hanging from a tree branch with youngsters joyfully swinging over the stream. Ended up doing just over 8k, heart rate was quite high for the effort, and I'm feeling quite knackered.

Carer's not arrived, I've had to sort her out myself.

 

[welsh dragon]

Let's hope the madness will end now.

Let's hope the madness will end now.

Hmmm. I hope so, but I'm not convinced,
