The Retirement Thread

[Drago]

Done with thr painting. Big old 15 x 18 bike shed and workshop done, and a few adjacent fence panels to use up the goo left in the sprayer. Instead of taking 2 hours or more it took 20 minutes and used about the same amount of paint as brushing wood. Now showered and settling with a pre prandial coffee.

All finished and everything, well nearly everything put back. 1 or 2 things may have found their way into the bin.

Nice and sunny here now and it's warmed up quite a lot.

I've even done some washing that's now outside drying. I have been a busy bee.

I was just about to say the same thing. So very true though.

Molly just been for a long walk, now I will start packing my case for our 2 day trip to Newcastle tomorrow and the Beamish museum. I shall miss Molly though but she will be staying with our daughter who has two dogs of her own, one of them being Molly's mum.

Enjoy your trip, particularly Beamish Museum. I do, personally, find it a little depressing to visit, when things from my childhood, or even, young adulthood, are now museum pieces.

I bought Venus fly trap seeds in a tin and have just planted them. Hopefully something will happen.....or not.

We went to Beamish a few years ago, fascinating place.

We've been out for lunch, Live Laugh, Love Food, now known as Food Whitehall, called in at Parkgate Rd Morrison s on the way back, I've also stripped the beds, got two machine loads of washing done, one load put out, third load about to go on and also put the vac round, I'll make the beds later, then after tea we're down the club for the evening.

We ended up with braised brisket, brocoli, new potatoes, Yorkshire pud and gravy and of course English mustard.
