The Retirement Thread

[Dave7]

Just wandered round to the Co-op for a couple of things and it’s already too hot for me so, even although it’s not even 10am yet, my shorts/vest pjs are back on and I ain’t venturing out again. I’ll be sitting in the living room later watching tennis with the fan blasting on me.

I am watching the golf from North Berwick.

Daft (nosey) question but why don't you just wear your shorts and vest ??
Keep a dressing gown handy in case someone knocks.

Where are you watching that? I can’t see it. No doubt Sky Sports is it?

Binned off music practice as its 28 celsiuses in the music room. Managed 25 minutes before calling it quits.

I have treated myself to an entry level Ipad in the Amazon prime day sales. I've never used an Ipad before I've always gone for androids so it will be Interesting.

I have shut the curtains already as it's going to be a scorcher or a day.

Keep cool peeps

Yes, afraid Sky have most things now.
Although I really begrudge it I pay because I enjoy my sports.
So much other crap that sadly comes as part of the package.

Uhmm....not had poached eggs in years. I must rectify that.
How do yo do yours ?

An inch or so of water in a pan, add a few splashes of vinegar, this holds the egg together.
Get the water boiling the turn down to a rolling simmer.
Crack the eggs into the water slowly then let them cook.
Non of this swirling the water round malarkey.

Love mine, but I am already tied into the Apple system so it makes sense. Not sure it’s quite as handy if your phone is still on Android.

Gosh! You must have amazing eyesight.

 

[numbnuts]

For lunch I made another stir fry like I did yesterday.

 

[welsh dragon]

[classic33]

Coooeeee. We are expecting 27 deg today.

I will be hiding inside.

Stay safe peeps

Got 30.5 here, shade temperature.
Not forecast for that either.

 

[Drago]

Temperature has burst through 35 celsiuses in the shade and still climbing.

He won't like but I'll be leaving Bruce indoors when I walk down to meet Mini D from school.
