The Retirement Thread

[Mo1959]

Thought the rain had gone off but it’s back so I’ve just had an early breakfast. Porridge with banana and a spoonful of ground flaxseed. Gives it a slightly nutty taste and some omega 3.

Hoping the weather clears up a bit soon as I can’t face another indoor day.

I might plant my carrot seeds today.

My dad was a great gardener and grew some great veg but for some reason carrots were the one thing that were never a great success. Maybe something in the soil.

Can hardly believe it’s 30 years ago today since the Dunblane school shooting. Wonder what all the kids would have been doing with their lives now.

Morning all

Yay! Fish Friday
Although it feels like a Monday to me.
Bit of welding to do before I have a stroll down to the harbour at lunchtime.

Morning.
After a day of constant rain it's actually a decent day. Very windy but dry.
Few chores then weights later.
Out tonight for eldest birthday meal. Bank of Dad footing the bill...

Morning folks wintery wet n cold but it is the Highlands.... Walked the beach yesterday and came across what i think is vertebrae from a whale, the bones measure about 4 ins across surrounded by gelatinous gook.
Going to order up some pansie plugs- viola tricolor types which are not so showy as modern crosses but i like'um as theyre more subtle and will self seed about the garden

I see our council tax is going up by 8.9%, yet we seem to get less and less for it.

That's not true. the holes in the road are increasing. And we are getting some really deep ones too.

I came that close to chinning another copper who cracked a sick joke about it later that same day. Had to be dragged off him.

I have just put a huge, massive, ginormous humungous and big......chicken casserole on in the slow cooker.
I was thinking WoW I couldn't fit anything else in there.... then I noticed i hadn't put the celery in so had to chop that up.
Did I say, its a whoppy dopper.

 

[Dave7]

Stay safe peeps

For those on here that dont speak Welsh, allow me to translate.
