The Retirement Thread

[Drago]

Dogs walked. Listened to some Rush while bimbling round my route. 14 odd celsiuses this morning and feels fresher, but it won't last.

My pre-dentist walk is in doubt......the forecast has changed to rain within the hour .

You sound like one of my girl friends.

I thought they would have more discrete 😊

Yay! Fish Friday.
Will take doggo for a walk on Lydeard Hill, then I'll be lunching in the Carew Arms.

How has the lady drummer settled into the band?

The word is very well indeed.

Neil "the Professor" Peart was arguably to most revered rock drummer of his generation and his sad passing left one of the most arduous vacancies in rock and roll, but she has apparently smashed it.

Good morning. Torrential rain for 2 - 3 hours last night. My butts overfloweth. It was bright and sunny earlier, now it's grey and chilly. My plan to strim and cut the grass has gone out the window, again. Hopefully late this afternoon. A bits and pieces day. I have a Zoom meeting on "Volunteering" at 11.00 so most of the day is built round that and this afternoon a PT session at 3.00pm.

Mrs P is out to lunch with a friend who is treating her. This is a full on five-course taster menu. Mrs P has said she will only want a light tea. I've offered an omelette. This has been accepted. On other matters of acceptance. Mrs P has ordered new carpet, as requested I've tracked down the Farrow & Ball paint Mrs P wants. I'll bob over to Preston today or tomorrow for that. Now I need Mrs P to accept my proposal for the shed colour. Life is one constant round of negotiation in this house!!

Right... who is going to own up!!!
Who's nicked my sock ?
I bought 2 pair of ankle socks last week, good padded walking type at £8.00.
Just washed and dried everything and there is a sock missing .
Had a torch in the washer and tumble drier. Checked the washing basket.....no sign.
Why couldn't it be an old one ? I've only worn them once

The Biro planet! It will be there. It's a little known fact that odd socks also inhabit the Biro planet. They secret themselves very cleverly in all sorts of nooks and crannies, and there are many billions of nooks and crannies on the Biro planet. Be patient, sometimes they sneak back to earth, when they do you must pounce, grab the little bugger and give it a severe talking to....................................

..........................alternatively buy another pair, then you'll have a spare for when the next one sneaks off....................much easier.

Nearly up to a balmy 12 here now.

Just over 7 miles walk done with a bit of climbing. I need to do more hills. Too many flat routes lose the fitness.

Scrambled egg and cheese for breakfast.
