The Retirement Thread

[mikeIow]

The trouble with having an early start is you can wake up 2 hours early & be unable to sleep 🤦‍♂️

I think I have sussed this retirement lark.

I get out of bed. Close my eyes and grab a t shirt off the shelf. Whatever it says on the T shirt. Thats what I am doing today.

That will work. I'm sure. 😁

A quick good morning to all.
I am typing quietly so as not to disturb you.
Rain all day here apparently.

I think I'd need a manual to tell me where to put the key in PeteXXX's truck. 😲

I didn’t realise they were so fancy inside! Nice and clean too.

Morning.
Up early as was awake anyway but as a rugby fan I got up to watch Wales v Japan.
Later will be Lions v Waratahs.
Grey and breezy outside so undecided on ride as yet.

Good morning, off to Screwfix shortly as I ran out of caulk when working on the shed. A grey and breezy start, must crack on before the temperature rises

 

[Drago]

I have risen!

Feel dry mouthed and muzzy headed. That'll be the Beta blockers.

Cooooeeee. 16 deg very misty and raining.

Too any things to press, pull and twist on Petes truck for me.

Stay safe peeps

Good morning all.
A cloudy start to the day with quite a breeze.and much cooler than of late.
A bit of shopping to do, so I'll be out on the bike for a bit.

I can’t take to her for some reason. I ended up catching up on Murder Most Puzzling as I forgot about it last night.

I don't think she is that good to be honest. She doesn't have the skill to be at the very top. I understand she is out now as well.

Pete this is great news. It's in the same place as on my car. What a coincidence. It's good to know if you ever have to borrow my car you'll know how to start it. 👍👍

I've mentioned this to Mrs P in the past. I agree with you. Mrs P is a huge tennis fan. You know how one can make mistakes and sometimes say the wrong thing?? Silence is often the best choice.....................

Good morning. Grey. Cool. Windy............all words which could apply to Granddad or the weather. You pays your money.

I'm typing this on my new keyboard after throwing a glass of water into the previous one. It's the first time I've purchased a refurbished brand item and I'm very pleased with it so far. Less than half the price of a new one. Today will be domestics and various chores. If I get that lot done in time I'll head out to M&S and Next in search of T-shirts, jeans and M&S. Next have a 50% sale on line. I spent 30 minutes or so trying to choose things but find it impossible online.

At the risk of causing offence I see an average band from Manchester was gigging last night. I spotted a couple of reels on Facebook. Noel didn't look very chuffed. At least their quite open about this being a money-making exercise. I don't really have a problem with that. Also fell across Rod Stewart at Glastonbury. Hmmmmm................
