The Retirement Thread

[ebikeerwidnes]

Ooh, which one?

the classic ones are pride, greed, wrath, envy, lust, gluttony, and sloth

so if on a bike I would reckon
pride
greed for another bike
wrath and cars drivers
envy of the bike that just passed you
lust - err - not really - back of a car - yes - on a bike - not sure how that would work and not at my age anyway
gluttony - no - too much added weight
sloth - another no if you are cycling I suppose


so - what is the choice??

Isn't it amazing how far a glass can shatter when dropping it off a shelf.... Including the bit I extracted from my hand 🩸🩸🩸⛑️🩸🩸🩸

I knocked a glass of the kitchen worktop a couple of weeks ago. I was barefoot and my dustpan and brush were at the opposite end of the kitchen. Yes I did walk carefully, yes I did bleed and I also had a couple of glass fragments working their way out of my feet for a few days. 😬

I was just about to go out for my walk but it started raining, again. I blame all you southern whingers going on about how warm it is down south. I've been thinking about a tour around the Cowal Peninsula but in this warm damp weather it will be midgie as hell on the west coast. We'll see maybe it will be breezy.

Morning it's hot, and cloudy here today, didn't fancy any breakfast so I'll have that for lunch
nothing else planned today.

Coconut cake for lunch

I will be on omelette for lunch/late lunch. I have eggs, cheese, ham and maybe a few chips. Might be able to find an onion somewhere.

I would always choose auto.
Not sure about those adaptive cruise control gizmos as I'm not sure I would want the car deciding distances for me.

I used to do 40,000 miles a year with work so have had auto’s since the mid 1990’s have one of each now and although I prefer the auto I have no issue jumping in to a manual, in fact I quite enjoy swapping cogs myself.

Coconut cake for lunch

May have a slice or two for afternoon tea.

 

[ebikeerwidnes]

Well that was a waste

misread my calender and the visit to Age Concern is tomorrow


burk!!

 

[Dave7]

Well, just enjoying my omelette.
As hoped I had one onion left but when I cut into it, it was mank.
So ham, egg, tomato and cheese it is.

Good afternoon. A very pleasant cloudy, cool 22⁰ here. It's been a hectic morning with #1 and #3SPs. #1 is full on giddy today. She is a joy. The apple of Granddad's eye.

Mrs P has them both for a short while as I feast on chicken and mash. Bland food is the order of the day in prep for tomorrow's camera invasion.

Not much else really. I watched No Country for Old Men last night. I can't imagine why I've missed it for 20 years or so. What a very, very good film.
