The Retirement Thread

Morning all

Yay! Fish Friday!
Quick lunch at the Star today as I need to be back home by 2pm; got a chap coming to look at a bike I'm selling.

Housework in a minute, put some washing on, music practice, then spend some time on the books for me degree course.

Morning.
Wet and overcast today with storm expected for most later. Nice.
A spot of hoovering, Tesco delivery to receive and a weights session currently on the cards.
I managed to cut most of the grass yesterday afternoon then mower failed. Blown fuse so I changed it but further investigation required methinks. Today a good day to do it. Radio on, in garage, fettling. That'll do me.

Having a week off the weights. Schedule a rest week every 7 or 8 weeks to give my joints a rest.

The rain and wind have stopped.

CRISIS TIME!!!!!

We only have one banana. For a 50 miler pre-ride breakfast is a banana and two Weetabix. On bike snacks are sausage roll, sultanas and a banana. This is the sort of thing that gets right inside my head. "Will I be OK without a ride banana??"

I'll leave early and find a banana shop 🍌🍌🏠

They can put me in prison before I'll have one.

A prison in Brazil ????

Something I heard yesterday. The person involved is well known to my family so I have no reason to doubt this...........
The (English) person involved is an outspoken critic of Trump.
He was due to go to America on holiday but out of the blue he has been notified that his visa has been cancelled. No warning and apparently no chance of an appeal.
Very scary.

"Sir, tell me what is your greatest regret?"
Not listening to my wife's advice.
"Tell me what was that advice?"
Dunno, I wasn't listening.

And we now have rain. Fine rain

I have a spare Pain au Chocolate you can have - twice the calories of a banana, think how much faster/further you will go!

Got to look after your joints! I shifted from weights to calisthenics a couple of years ago after I tore a rotator cuff, this year rather than renew my gym membership I bought my own set of pullup bars - monkey bars the manageress calls them!

I'll wear a skirt so theyll stick me in a women's prison in the UK.
