The Retirement Thread

Morning, it was very warm during the night, maybe time to put my summer quilt on.

Off to Ellesmere this morning, BCQ hunting. Nice day for it. Just hope the BH weekend traffic isn’t troublesome

Happy Birthday @Tenkaykev. Enjoy your day.

Walk done and half way through breakfast. I'm loving greek yoghurt at the moment. Having that with some low sugar granola and a handful of blueberries and raspberries. Rather yummy.

Happy Birthday @Tenkaykev!


Hoping for a ride today

not sure where - the café boat will be out - but might try a new ride up round where I met my old school friend yesterday

but the canal will be nice in this weather
but crowded!

I dont have a summer quilt/duvet .

Back from Aldi. It was strangely very quiet. I expected it to be busy with people buying for the BBQ etc. Got everything i needed including ice cream and cones.....I already have the chocolate flakes .
Q. Do I go for a walk or really chill out ?

I have a 4.5 tog and a 9.5 tog and using the press studs I can join them together to make 14 tog
I find the latter too hot, so hardly use that combination, I'll put my 4.5 one one today and if it gets
colder I have a quilted throw I can put on the top.

We got the summer quilts out months ago

even our winter quilts are labelled "Spring/Autumn"

my wife and I seem to "sleep hot"

(waiting from the obvious replies from "the usual suspects"!!!)

Me too. I think my coverless duvet is something like a 4 tog and I use it all year round.

We never take ours off ! (4 1/2 tog) If it gets a bit cold we just put a fleecy blanket on top.

Chill.

Good morning from a sunny Dorset. Daughter and her chap arrived yesterday afternoon and we headed out for a walk, finishing at the local pub. Had 3 pints of " Faith " from Northern Monk so feeling a bit vague this morning. Lunch is at the 29029 Nepalese restaurant, 10 of us will be celebrating my 77th birthday 😮
Have a peaceful day folks ☕️🏖️🦔

All the best!

It's a grey sky with small blue patches.

The garden is still soaking wet.

For some reason I have not bothered to shave this week and apparently I look like a degenerate. I am under orders to get rid of the 'beard'.

Have a spiffing day, everyone!

I decided on a walk. It had clouded over but fine for walking. Got 1.3 miles in.
Not sure who to report this to but I was walking past a pub and someone jumped out, dragged me in and forced me to drink this.....
.
its not short measure as I had a quick slurp.

Decision made......I'm on Aldi's chicken chow mein.
