The Retirement Thread

[Mo1959]

30+ years since we moved and I still recall it as a nightmare.

Do they not say that it comes third in order of stressful situations after bereavement and divorce. I can quite believe it.

New pillow time? I must have spent hundreds of pounds over the years experimenting with pillows. Memory foam, latex, feather, fancy shaped ones. I think I might have finally found the one that I will stick with from a company called Soak and Sleep.

Gosh, it's exceptionally mild this morning. I had a four and a half mile very slow shuffle concentrating on keeping my heart rate down. Many people probably walk quicker.

My step daughter gave me two memory foam pillows I know why .Like laying head on block of concrete.

Yes, I paid a fortune for the Tempur shaped one and found that. It hurt my ears it was so firm.

I like a firm pillow, love the firm memory foam pillows I got from Dunelm, if anything I'd like them a bit firmer.

My wife didn;t sleep much last night and we had to be up this morning to look after the grandkids

When we had been back home after dumping them on their Mum - sorry - I mean regretfully handing the little darlings over to their Mother - I put the kettle on and we watched teh telly for a while


When the time came I started think about dinner (tea in the local patois) - she seemed to be awake - eyes open and all that - so I asked if she had any requirements

her reply was

"Armchair Chess"


no idea what the Hell she was dreaming of!!!!

Good morning all, unusually the cafe was rammed yesterday, we had to wait half an hour for our food, a win for my Good Lady at bingo when we were in the club later, it was a good afternoon out.

Morning all

Yay...tis Fish Friday
Stuff to do at home this morning, so will be walking down to the village at lunchtime to pick up f&c from South 16.
Just perusing some documents and it seems we will be moving to a 'rural hamlet' so we'll no longer be village dwellers. So, over my life, I've lived in a city, then a town, then a village and now a hamlet.......I can see a trend here.
