The Retirement Thread

Light breckie eaten. Daughter is coming for lunch and I am doing a roast.
She is a veggie so (for her) its roast potatoes, mixed veg and gravy.
Surely something missing there 🤭.
I will have roast beef.

I have done some more pottering. And the fish have arrived.

So now all we are waiting for is the wood.

I got myself out for a short bimble. Barely 14 miles but it's better than nothing. Sunny but breezy out. I am now starting to drip so better go and get freshened up. I really must start trying to get out at least a couple of times per week and try and get some cycling legs back.

There goes NumbNuts on the next available train 😀

Actually I have only been to Studland beach once in my life many years ago and was planning a trip this month that is if the summer is back on.

You must have found my mojo, haven't been out for 6 weeks and really can't be bothered at the moment.

As late as 11pm last night the forecast for today was nice and dry.

Bike readied yesterday for a decent ride today - got up 9am and it was hissing down and is still drizzling away under a moody sky.

Very fed up with this weather and totally demotivated to cycle or walk at the moment.

Enjoy your respective days all.

I'm really having to almost force myself out these days. It doesn't help that the roads just seem to be getting increasingly busy.

My mojo is missing as well, I haven't been out since June.

Do you have to acclimatise the fish ?

 

[welsh dragon]

Pizza today

Yes. We will leave them in the bag to enable the water temps to equalise, then release them.

Just remembered we are off out tonight to see Oppenheimer - slipped my mind!

I wonder how many of us old codgers are actively cycling?

I am, although only just restarted after long layoff re illness. Finding the motivation hard though.

I'm now the proud owner of a new light summer coat, the old coat was starting to look a little shabby, then I was in the my memories section of Facebook and came across a picture of me wearing the coat from eight years ago and thought perhaps its time for a new one.
