The Retirement Thread

[classic33]

I have just splashed out on 3 pairs of thermal socks for Marks and sparks, and a thermal pair of fingerless gloves from Amazon. I know how to splash the cash

Forget Marks n'Sparks, you'll need them more than they do.

I have a favour to ask of you.
Those fleecy bloomers you left here when you had to escape via the bedroom window.
Would you mind if I cut them down to use as underpants ? My boxers are not warm enough in this weather.

MrsD's planted the wild garlic at the end o the garden.
I've changed a light fitting in the house bathroom to a more aesthetically pleasing one.
There seems to be a lot of steam train activity at Williton station......lots of whistling and chuffing in the distance, but no sign of any trains coming past our place yet.

I'll see what I can do, although I do think think bubblegum pink is really your colour

The sky has gone an odd grey colour. We might be in for snow methinks.

Looks very festive in our 'umble abode even though i say it myself.A few garlands draped over picture frames and bookcases.Plus those cheap Poundland coloured lights and i have raided the 'lads' xmas stuff.Santas,Pillar boxes and pressie box minitures.The 'lads' are not doing a Xmas table this year,cos i am not going and i also get in early and dress a fine table even though i say it myself.The 'lads' said it will not be the same without me.

I've been out for a bimble on the bike, it was a tad cold even though I was well wrapped up.
I needed a few bits for todays tea from the local shops. The traffic seemed really heavy out on the roads, I think the Christmas shopping spree/panic has started in earnest.

We had pork and stuffing sandwiches today

I must be one of the few people that doesn't like stuffing. I think it's the consistancy. Sue loved it.

I am having fried eggs on toast.
I have put my slow cooked lamb curry in containers.....wow, I got 4 meals out of it.

Another wander done. It’s still perishing out there. I stopped to chat to a lady I know and got really chilled. Glad to get back in and get a cuppa.

We got to 2 deg here and we had a flurry of snow ❄️ what lasted all of 2 minutes

 

[Dave7]

Call me fickle but my fried eggs became scrambled eggs. Very nice they are as well.
