The Retirement Thread

[Tenkaykev]

A wonderful trip to Weymouth beer festival lunchtime. A glorious sunny day with the temperature about 21 degrees. Arrived to discover that every beer and Cider ( about 60 in total) were from Welsh breweries.
I particularly liked this years pint glass, a combination of the Welsh Dragon and the Cerne Abbas Giant in a glorious red print, with the Giant grasping a leek in one hand and a pint in the other. Reassuring to see that there's no problem with " Brewers droop " 😁

Tomorrow, it will one week since I have been for a ride due to rain and wind. Don't know about you lot but I feel guilty if I don't ride for more than a few days so I must go this weekend. Hopefully, the forecast is good.

I'm feel a bit like that, I have something akin to withdrawal symptoms if I don't get out on the bike, even just a short ride after a few days off it.

Managed a 24m spin this afternoon, quite windy but its raining tomorrow so grabbed the opportunity Im always a bit twitchy after fitting new componants like mudguards etc as i expect them to fall off and throw me down the road anyhow the new wheel did what it should and new brake blocks worked ok

Its been that long since I last rode that my bikes are covered in spiders webs.

A 2023 glass!

That’s the start of the heavy rain. I suspect tomorrow will be spent loafing in my pj’s all day.
I’ll just need to read or find stuff to watch.

Why feel guilty?

Guilt implies you have done something wrong.

It is I.
Sorry, but why should I suffer me on my own.
Ti's Saturday so am listening to our Tony with SoTS.
Daughter and some of the family are coming this morning. SiL is lifting/moving flags plus removing a small wall prior to daughters treatment room** being built.
**for Drago that is a mini drugs factory.
Have a nice day everyone.

Good morning folks, not feeling too fragile after yesterday's debauchery in Weymouth, so it's off to parkrun for Mrs tkk and myself this morning.

I think it would be a park swim here! The rain hasn’t let up and lots more to come right through until tomorrow afternoon.

Morning all

All set for about four days of really nice weather.
I'll be dusting the bbq off later.
Feeling a little better today, but had a very restless night.

Morning all.
Down here it's going to be a sunny and warm weekend.
MrsP is going out with MissP to the wedding dress shop to discuss some slight changes to the dress of choice.
I'll be out with the dog, then a bimble to the local shops on the bike.
Then some more tidying up in the garden, then I'll settle down with an ale or three to listen to the football on the radio.
Sounds like a plan.
