The Retirement Thread

Does 0400 mean I am 1st or is it still yesterday 🙂.
Legs were aching so I decided to get up for an hour and stretch them. I will hopefully get another 2 hours kip shortly.

I was mooching about earlier as well. Hopefully back to sleep when I've finished this brew.

Popped into Tesco's as the bus I was on starts to divert away from where I wanted to go (home!).
Mrs Poacher likes their cranberry raisin & cashew bloomers so I had a look at the bread area.
Choice of *NEW!* 400gm cranberry cashew & raisin bloomer at £2.25

or 350gm cranberry raisin & cashew bloomer at 48p.

Decisions, decisions! Presumably the latter is being discontinued. Shame! I think it used to be ~£1.85, but not sure, as I only bought it on YS.

Used to be £1.80.........it's a handy way to put the price up. Mrs P likes the Sourdough. If I'm in Tesco and they have several on yellow I buy them all, slice, put in different bags and freeze............then quietly destroy the YS evidence 😉

Not been caught out...........yet!

Morning ......it's very dark, but it's dry for a change

I am such a pig. My well endowed physical therapist was showing me an exercise wherein she was pulling back with stretchy bands in such a way as to make her bust stick out even more than normal. It was distracting. Still it doesn't pay to appear to notice. When done with therapy I went for a little ride on my new Brompton P line which I also enjoyed.
Life is good.

Went back to bed and crashed out for just over 2 hours........I feel far better than I did yesterday, not difficult as yesterday was sh*t.
I think I may even get to Aldi.
They do High Protein Pancakes which have good reviews so will try to get some. Tried last visit but they had sold out.

Good morning folks, looks dry out.

Morning. Yet more rain and wind

I better force myself out for a walk I suppose. I am feeling fatter and lazier by the day.

I meant to say. Daughter did a meal of mixed veg, baby boiled and Sea Bass.
Meal was lovely but veg was too crunchy for me, I don't like it overdone but a bit more than it was.
There is enough left for another meal so I will bang it in the micro for 90 seconds.

Morning all

The Gasman cometh today at 9am to service our CH boiler.
We don't normally get up that early, but Pete the boiler man only lives 100 yds away, so I suppose we are convenient for his first job of the day.
Apart from that excitement, we've got nothing else planned for today.

Coooooeeeee. 7 deg and still very windy. At least the rain has stopped for now.

Stay safe peeps

Good morning folks,
Our second Tuesday group meet up yesterday was a great success. We were in Poole and had decided to start at the King Charles. We got to the pub about ten to twelve and stood outside waiting for it to open. The landlady was a bit taken aback to find customers queuing when she opened the door 🍺😀
A lot of the smaller non chain pubs are now opening Wednesday to Sunday as a means of keeping their costs under control.

Good morning all.
A nice bright start to the day here. Rain forecast for later though.
Today's highlights are dog walking and cleaning out the fridge. I'm sure there are alien lifeforms growing in there.
The kitchen floor needs a wash as well.
No bike rides today.
I don't like the new way of attaching emojis though. It seems a faff compared to the previous way.
Enjoy your day everyone.

They are a faff.

No Paul. Don't. Just don't say it.
