The Retirement Thread

[Drago]

Going to Dwughter #1's today. Some sheetbags broke into her car yesterday and she's a bit upset.

Morning all.
A cloudy start to the day here.
An early dog walk and then we are off to the Royal veterinary college for a follow up appointment for Millie.
There has been a marked improvement in the last week or so. She is very suspicious as she hasn't been offered her breakfast as her stomach needs to be empty for the planned endoscopy today.
Whilst she is there, MrsP and myself will go to a garden centre as I need some bags of potting compost, it's nearly that time again. My early tomatoes were potted up this week.

Remove a third and you reduce the size by half?
Methinks yer maths is a wee bit rusty.

I was only observing that half AA sized batteries are available, nowhere did I say anything about thirds / capacities

I am thinking of a curry later for myself. Nothing as exotic as yours, it will be a jar of paste with chicken, mushrooms and onion. Plus nan bread.

I really must go to Aldi as I need essentials ie bread, cheese, chips etc. I don't want to go but 'needs must'.

I think I need to start using our Aldi again. I'm not that keen on it, but the Co-op is just so expensive.

The Co Op is outrageously expensive. We never go anymore as the prices are so stupid.

Yes I agree. There are some Aldi products that I just don't like** but generally it fills my needs.
** as an eg I like nan bread with my curry or chilli but would rather pay extra for the Spar nans as they are really tasty.

Our CoOps are quite reasonable. There's four of them within a mile radius of us.

 

[Dave7]

And while I was parked some b*stard has run into my car
It will need a panel repainting.
Truthfully, if I ever did that I would leave a note with contact details.

Even tourists won't shop in ours as the prices are ludicrous.

Still overcast and drizzly here so I hopped on the Wattbike and did a gentle Robopacer ride.

Here's me in my black and red Wattbike jersey right beside Taylor the robot.
