The Retirement Thread

[Mo1959]

Wet and windy walk done, porridge finished and cuppa time.

Just paid my car insurance. £151 for the year for Comp with protected bonus. Sometimes it's worth having a tiny car.

Nothing exciting planned for today .
Just a quick trip to Morrisons and off to Stratford for a walk by the river .
Have a good day everyone.

Boiler man been and gone. CH boiler fully serviced and certificated.
I'm £70 lighter, but I reckon that's good value.

At that price, not too shabby.

Good day. Weather. Go on. Guess. My excitement for today? Finish an objection email to the Health Authority re the proposed take over of our GP practice - over 1000 objections to date, all have to be printed, read and presented to the relevant committee on Friday. It's worthwhile for many reasons not least our GP practice has the lowest number of registered patients who attended A&E in the authority. Why? Because we can GP appointments!!! Not rocket science is it? I've also got to submit a planning objection to the local BC. I know, sounding like a NIMBY but truly not so.

Excitment aside I'm off to town next to do some banking and choose between Specsavers and Boots for my new glasses.

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.

If you don't have one, perhaps you need a blood pressure monitor, so you can check your BP after therapy

It's been 600 days since I last had a car, but I'm not counting
I will get one this year as I never went anywhere last year and there is so much I would like to do again

We don't have a water supply at the moment. There doesn't seem to be problem as far as the website goes so I have No idea what the problem is.

I hope the pipe hasn't burst somewhere down the line as the meter is about 1/4 miles down the lane and there is no way we could fix it ourselves or have the water company fix it. The cost would be horrendous.

I'm sat here looking at you lot on a new 27" screen. Not the best for CC but good for catch up TV and such.
