The Retirement Thread

What a miserable day.
Although it's not cold it is rainy, damp and windy. It's getting dark, well it really hasn't got properly light today. Tomorrow should be better.
Time for a cup of tea

You want to see Educating Yorkshire, either series.
You'll be left knowing things can get worse.

I watched that - I think I was still a teacher at the time

They were nice kids - you should have seen ours!!!

Bonjour. I had my right eye assessment for my cataract operation this morning which should be next month. Right eye first then left one about 3 / 4 weeks later.
Back home now and resting my eye as my vision is still a bit blury after the drops they put in.

Its a piece of cake.
Dirks wife has had both done a Dirk says he didn't feel a thing.

Wrapped a potato in foil and seeing if the stove will produce a jacket potato for dinner. An experiment.

I didn't get a snooze, maybe I'll sleep tonight...........hopefully,
some nights I hate going to bed knowing I'll be staring into darkness for hours.

The eye hospital I am going to is in Cheshire Oaks which is 45 minutes away from home and my wife doesn't like driving so far so my son offered to take me.
I offered to pay for his petrol but he drives an electric car.

I'll be staring into darkness for hours.

Anyone need an xBox updating?? Teenagers? Pah! Get yourself a pensioner 😂😂

7½ hours I've spent updating my lad's xBox. Most of that time spent waiting for huge downloads, 50+GB each, to finish and install. He's happy. Dad has lost a full day.

That sounds like a magic stove where you pop in a potato and out pops a roast chicken!

 

[Drago]

Home made burgers for tea. Pleasant.

 

[ebikeerwidnes]

Sausage (Heck) chips (made from potatoes) and bean for tea

Nice!!

(Oh and Ketchup - the grand daughter complains about tomato ketchup on tomato sauce
but she also complains when I have ketchup on actual tomatoes
girls are weird!)

The baked potato experiment was a success I'm pleased to announce.
