The Retirement Thread

It's not really you doing it then.

I have done my fair share of hand washing in the past. And I have no intention of doing it again

Just back from a 3.52 mile walk with two of the dogs, now I'm having a coffee with a Tunnock's Caramel wafer. My ex boss emailed me to see if I wanted to join a staff meeting remotely. Feckin hell, I've only been gone 3 days, I told her to pi$$ off.

Been shopping, for lunch today beef and mushroom pie, mashed potatoes and swede followed by hot cross buns

No idea what we are having to eat today. Could be snake and pygmy pie, corniche pasties, breadcrumbs chicken. It will be a surprise.

corniche pasties,

That is normally a nightmare here
walls have plasterboard that falls apart at the application of a drill and generally goes in a slightly different place that it starts off in.

and once I get round that - if I get it perfectly horizontal according to the spirit level then my wife will look at it and say
"its not level"
I step back to look and she is right (which is annoying in itself!!!) because the coving is not level so a level shelf or whatever LOOKS wrong!

bloomin' builders!

We just use the internal recess cam lock jobbies.

No drilling, they don't move and look great.

Sod off.

We settled on snake and pygmy pie and fries

Been out for a ride, a sunny but chilly 36 miles. Up to 8° as I neared home, but felt warmer than that with a tailwind and in the sun.

I'm slow today and just realised what you said

Another wander done. That’s just over 12 miles for the day. Still gorgeous here.

A lovely walk, albeit a bit chilly through Hitch Wood, an ancient beech wood near Hitchin and then a nice lunch in the Orange Tree.

I plucked up the courage and went to the gym. It was difficult, and I needed a couple of minutes in the office when I first got there, but alright, as time went on, I also popped around to see a pal who had texted me earlier, that was a first as well. All in all, it was quite a good evening. I am now chilling with a glass of wine, I have been awake since 4am, so bedtime will not be far away. Thanks for putting up with me.
