The Retirement Thread

[Paulus]

Always depressing when friends, work colleagues etc begin to fall off the perch, when they are younger than you!

One of my school friends died a few months ago, sobering

Two of my work mates who I started work with as 16 year olds unfortunately didn't make it to retirement age. Very sad.

Morning. Currently 3 degrees but we still have the strong easterly wind so with windchill it feels sub zero. Cosy jacket for my walk soon.

Mo, I didn't know if it should be "cosy" or "cozy" so I googled it.
Apparently your cosy is English whereas my cozy is American.
I bow to your superior knowledge

Morning all

Manky weather out there, just as well the vintage motorcycle auto jumble is mainly indoors.
Mates are coming around at 9am and then MrsD's driving us up to Shepton.

 

[Drago]

I have risen!

Good morning all from a sunny Barnet.
I've got to get up early to get to the market. The fishmonger runs out of smoked haddock quickly, and I want some for tea tonight. I've missed out the last couple of weeks.

Good morning from a grey Poole. Off to parkrun shortly, thenhome for brunch. Granddaughter has a sleepover tonight so it's going to be a hectic day🤔

 

[Mo1959]

Chilly walk done. I've actually got colder since getting back in and sitting down. Time for a steaming bowl of porridge I think.

 

[Mo1959]

Oh, rugby this afternoon I see. That will keep me amused for a while.

I cannot get into Union. I struggle with league as I am a footy man but Union just doesn't do it for me.

I only watch the 6 nations. I wouldn't normally watch rugby.
