The Retirement Thread

[Mo1959]

Shopping got and half way through lunch. I had one of these Bol microwave pots…Spanish Butter Bean Stew and I’m half way through some melon now.

The temperature is slowly lifting but the cloud is also gathering.I’d better have another walk soon I think.

Finished the Aldi run. I've resisted the hand baked Saffron Lobster crisps. 😲😲

Not really hungry. Cheese on a few crackers for lunch.

Anyone else not received confirmation they will be getting the winter fuel allowance yet? I thought I would have heard by now.

Received today.

Feeling warm already!

My daughter was having problems ordering a cheese platter so she asked my to do it. Its from amazon. It wouldn't let me do it either because it said it couldn't verify my age. PFFFSSSS

Must be strong cheese!

-2.4 celsiuses minimum here last night.

Not too cold then.

A chilly riverside trail loop done. Met a guy I know and he chummed me round most of it and we had a good blether. Met a lovely white German Shepherd on the way back. Very friendly.

Was he trying to find his flock?

Bloody freezing here, just popped out on some errands but did remember to preheat the car this morning. Got to love an electric car!

Fortunately the No4 to Wimborne arrives pre heated ( it's amazing the amount of hot air that a bus load of pensioners generates) 😉

Walk to Wimborne was 8k / 5 miles. First stop was the Burly Baker for some olive focaccia and a couple of Bakewell tarts. And a couple of cheese scones. And a couple of large tea cakes ( I was hungry and my eyes overruled my self discipline). Then off to Waitrose for a click and collect order followed by a visit to Spill the Beans to replenish dried fruits etc and finally having arrived at our bus stop as a bus was leaving we wandered over the road and had lunch and a pint in The Man in The Wall "

My snoozing is getting worse and don't fall asleep, but saying that I don't fall asleep in bed either
