The Retirement Thread

[Drago]

Still recovering from an ear infection and slightly wobbly and uncoordinated as a result, so another day with no ride. About to walk Bruce. Then it's a Q day of house tidying and instrument practice.

Someone is bound to ask so let's get it done with. I suffered a bit of a breakdown last year and just suddenly snapped, behaving increasingly irrationally until the wonderful Mrs D got a grip and set me on the road to sanity. I'm fine now and would rather not talk about it. Suffice to say I am gladdened beyond belief to be back here with my many friends, and grateful to the long suffering CC staff for being willing to put up with me again.

That is all.

Has Drago returned?

We came close to buying a bungalow called COBWEBS.
Any one know what that meant 🙂

Spider from Coronation Street lived there☹️☹️☹️

Hello - up and about - which is amazing as I only got to bed at 3:30

If was SWMBO's birthday yesterday and we 'had a few' at the pub


apparently the grandkids are visiting later on as a sort of amalgamation of birthday and Mother's Day - or so I suspect

Pleased to see you back. I hope you are not too “normal” now, it is nice to have a bit of irrationality now and again

Complexity and Organized Behaviour Within Environmental Bounds

That or the owners were blown away with the house.

I got called normal the other day, I've never been so insulted in all my life.

Never seen one called Dun Cycling

which may be significant
or just me musing pointlessly

The Dun-somethings could be endlessly amusing for us older types. 😁

G'day. Mild, still and grey. An ideal cycling morning but this is off the agenda. #3 son and partner, small person's parents, need decorating help. Popped over the other day and it was clear they have no skills. I've offered to spend a day helping and passing on the basics of how to prepare and then decorate a room. 😇😇

A diabolical sleep last night. Mrs P, God bless her, put her light on at 1.30........I was still awake at 6.00am as a result. 😪

Was that a red light...? 😁

If so, lucky you.

Or if you're the shifty looking sort, "Dun Nothin".

There is, or at least was, a house in Northampton with the name Dunrapin'. He was indeed on the register.
