The Retirement Thread

[SpokeyDokey]

Long time since I've been there. Even when much younger it was hard work to see it all in the day.

Took us 6 hours just to not see a right lot!

I've played catch-up with my sleep 😴
I took two paracetamols and now feel a bit better
it's very warm here at 33.4c
I'm going to watch the Saturday Mass on youtube.

So ride today ended up at over 100k so that's four rides over a 100 this month and that's 734km for the month, no wonder I feel tired now ; will try and do 66k by the end of the month to make it 800 .

In other news the BH got me a pair of Ralph Lauren jeans for £4.50 from a chazzer this morning , nothing too unusual about that apart from them being Made in the USA with Japanese selvedge denim that goes for £240! Dunno how they missed it as it is printed in huge lettering on the inside of a pocket.

It's raining. But it's that very very fine stuff. You can hardly see it.

The bin is here with his dog.

And no doubt put a sizeable dent in your wallet.

Snooze snoozed.

 

[Dave7]

No snooze for me yet which surprised me as I've been up since 4.30, done a long (for me) walk and a big brunch.
I'm just snacking for tea, Doritos with a hummus dip followed by strawberries and ice cream.

I enjoyed the cycling.

Had my tea early. Ribeye and mixed veggies followed by Greek yoghurt and peaches.

Mrs Tilley Scottish tablet...... what on earth is that ?

A bit like Mrs Shillings orifice....only different.

The spring on the inner lip always faces the medium that you wish to contain.

Unless it's a Mobylette engine where they face outwards. Weird French!

Looks terrific. Hope you enjoyed it .🙂

But if it was served to me I wouldn’t be able to eat any of it and I love a fry up . Just because of the tinned tomatoes, to me they would taint ALL the rest of the lovely food on the plate .
Yes, I know I am strange . 😂😀

Not sure if it is just tinned tomatoes you have an aversion to?

I don’t like tomatoes in any shape or form, even touching a fresh tomato gives me the shivers, but, strangely, I don’t mind tomatoes product (ketchup, puree, pasta, etc), and, I am very fond of Italian food, which it often tomato based.

then that's ( usually ) to prevent ingress. EDIT: there's a wealth of seals ( I used to work on motors / gearboxes from miniature to very very big ) and must have fitted thousands over the years, some very exotic arrangements )

Sausages in rolls with fried onions for tea tonight. Nothing fancy but very tasty.

Yes, £68 for 2 to get in. Okay if you have a great time but not so okay if you don't.

Suddenly gone very dark here.
