The Retirement Thread

[ebikeerwidnes]

woke up early (for me) so by 9 I had taken all my tablet and had breakfast
There has to be a 30 minute gap between 2 sets of tablet so it takes longer than just popping them out and swigging some water


so I went for a ride
lovely along the canals
especially as the bike seems to have improved since I cleaned up the chain and all the cogs and stuff and re-lubed it all
funny that!!

anyway - apparently I am taking SWMBO to the beauty place this afternoon - The Wedding is getting close so the number of appointments is increasing!!!

I'm having a snooze soon so can you all keep it down a bit, please 👍

I might join you…….well not literally!

As said elsewhere I got shouted at on my ride this morning
"Havn't you got a bell" basically
when I have one
rang it
AND he reacted to it by moving to the side

anyway - it really got to me - it was on my mind for ages after and I didn;t calm down properly for an hour or so

very strange and there was not really a problem - I just had to go round his dog on the grass a bit

I did shout back that I have one and rang it a few times - which is again not like me

must have been ina funny mood!

Back from lunch.
We ended up going to my old golf club. Caught up with a few old golfing friends which was nice.
With our drinks we had a bowl of cheesy chips, very yummy.

I'm not hungry. We bought 4 lamb samosas in town. They were surprisingly filling.

Salut. Spent the day at SiL cutting the grass and Mrs G helping with gardening.
What a view she has from her garden!! Very peaceful and relaxing.

Phew. The house is warm. I have the fan on which is helping quite a bit.

Watching the snooker. I will watch Judd Trump and Luca Brecel as I’m not that keen on Ronnie O’Sullivan.

 

[ebikeerwidnes]

Well - it has happened

I have swapped to shorts due to the weather

also spent an hour or so reading in the garden

It is therefore declared to be Summer

It's 25 deg here.

Gets much warmer here and I might have to leave the bodywarmer off in the coming days.

When I was cycling back on the home run of my ride a young lad on an MTB passed me

wearing a block hoody and balaclava and black jeans

I was hot in my t-shirt and shorts!!!

Morning. We had unexpected rain between 4 and 5 so I didn’t bother getting up too early. It seems to have cooled the air down and our mini heatwave is now over. A more pleasant 17 later.
