The Retirement Thread

[Dave7]

Good morning Drago, no doubt Mo and all other oldies on here.
Weather is not good, rainy and blustery wind.
Just enjoying my coffee while watching sports news and gradually surfacing.
My Mr Fixit will be here at 0900, I have a long list of jobs for him.
Not sure what I will be doing today, I will wake up before deciding.

43C here at 5.50PM
A number of bushfires burning across the State.

Up early this morning, gave the cloakroom a final touch up and this afternoon we put everything back.

I’m pleased with the colour, before it was a very dark blue which made it a bit oppressive. This has really transformed it.

If you haven't used the estate emulsion before you should find it's very tough. We have it in a couple of rooms and it's last very well. Good paint to apply in my experience.

Stay safe peeps

Absolutely tipping it down by the riverside this morning.

Good morning. Pouring all night and the same forecast all day. Very windy. It will be a shite journey to pick up the granddaughter in half an hour or so. I suspect we will be stuck indoors all day.

Did I mention hearing aids? Probably not. I "lost" mine weeks ago. Not so much lost as didn't know where they are. I've turned the house upside down in recent weeks.

Yesterday I popped over to my lad's house to assemble his new bed. Opened my tool box. Yep. You guessed it. There are my hearing aids. Don't ask. I don't know! The last time I used my tools was November 2nd, when I popped over #1SP's birthday to help build her new bunk bed.

Winds blowing here but enough about me..
The weather is quite grotty in Hamtun but not as bad as oop norf.

Good morning all.
Another sunny day in prospect, 20⁰ with light winds.
We are going to get the bus into Puerto Rico this morning, for a wander around the town, MrsP wants a game of mini golf and we will have a spot of lunch somewhere
Enjoy your day everyone.

Dogs had done their wees and poos so cut the walk short. Two soaked labradors, one soaked drago.

That is the tye of weather that kills people.

Looks like a PJ day for me. Heavy rain and very strong wind all day. I don’t have the enthusiasm to try and brave it.

 

[Drago]

I might have a PJ day as well.

Morning all

Heavy rain overnight, main roads flooded, schools closed .... and we are cut off due to flooding on the only lane to our place.
Best stay in today, then.
Think I'll spend the morning welding.

 

[Drago]

Ironing day today. I've caught up with all my favourite shows on the streaming services, may fine a fillumto watch instead while pressing me clothes.
