The Retirement Thread

[Mo1959]

Went to church last night it was for all the parishioners who have died this year, we lost 21 this year and three from one family, and we are only a small congregation, the worse thing was only 19 people attended, but I think that is the trend now,
but people still like to shout "We are a Christian Country", but in reality more like pagan.

Churches are closing rapidly around here, and those that are still going usually share a minister between at least one other church.

Hi folks did my morning seaweed collecting on a wet n windy beach, lots of debris blown in and quite a few dead young seals that didnt survive the storms. I dragged a creel along the beach and added it to a big pile others have been collecting.

Mrs TKK purchased a large tin of " Celebrations " in anticipation of the Trick or Treating. The weather was so dreadful that nobody knocked on the door. I'm pleased to report that we've managed to demolish the entire tin between us 🍬🍬🍬

Mrs tkk just had a junk call on her mobile. The lady asked to speak to a Mr Alec Guinness. Mrs TKK immediately replied that she was terribly sorry but Mr Guinness had died. The lady then asked to speak with the property owner 😄

More likely to do with us being more secular than pagan.

Good morning all.
Daughter is calling again later.....she worked miracles yesterday removing many various items relating to Sue that I couldn't bring myself to get rid of (too painful**).
**that is conversation, not a plea for sympathy.

Yup. That is a tough job to have to do.
