The Retirement Thread

[screenman]

I am starting the initial countdown to launching my butt off of my office chair and up the stairs to bed. It has been a bad diet day, no exercise due to my back still being painful, and most of the rock cakes and flapjack I made yesterday have been consumed.

What have you been doing to make it hurt, not sitting down resting it I bet.

Guilty as charged

Guilty as charged

In that case you have no hope of it getting better, but I am not the only person who has told you that, I bet.

The stairs have been climbed, only to realised I had not opened the bedroom window earlier to let the accumulate hot air out, 28c in here at the moment.

You'll sleep!

Cant sleep.

Cant sleep.

Me neither. Knee and shoulder aching all night.

At this time in the morning I want to go hammer on a local farmer's door and explain the consequences of running down a cyclist.

Morning all, a bad nights sleep, but not to worry. I am up and out early this morning as I have a long drive ahead, I will update you all later. Have a good one.

Morning. I was up early as usual. Walked for a few miles then turned and jogged back home. Sweating buckets as usual so off for a nice soak now.

Good morning all, bright and breezy here. MrsFoE is about to give me a lift the 20 miles to Linlithgow so I can join a “cruise” ride (aka slow clubrun) there. It will only be 25 miles but that gives me the capacity to ride home after.

Cooooeeee. 13 deg here so a lot fresher.

I actually slept last night, probably because I had a drop or 20 of gin

Stay safe peeps

 

[Drago]

I have blearily risen!

Morning all

Lawn cutting today.
We're going away on Friday, so I need to clean the caravan exterior and check over all systems. Will probably do that tomorrow.

Hello. Bright and sunny, going to be a beautiful day. I managed to sleep for another 2½ hours and feel better for it. The knee was very swollen yesterday but seems calmer today.

Shortly I will tidy round, do the ironing and get the place ship shape....ish. I'll bob up to the allotment and see if there are things I can realistically do.

Mrs P has invited friends round tonight. We'll all order in curry, chat and will play a game!! I don't enjoy the game bit! The idea is everyone sends me their order, I coordinate and place the full order.

This afternoon will be spent on WhatsApp herding cats,...........and curry orders!! 🤣
