The Retirement Thread

Top tip: Don't run a Marathon after a curry and 4 pints...

Eat some peanuts and pebbledash the walls, too!

Still parked on the bank of the Loire, up reasonably early this morning and had a quick dip before cycling into town to get some shopping, learned my lesson from a few days ago, back at the van before 10am and before it got to hot but it has dropped a bit now around high 20's low 30's.

A couple of photo's from where I'm parked, don't really do it justice.

Had an hour of free electricity from Octopus today, 12:00 - 13:00. Put the towels on a 90 degree wash and fired up the Immersion heater. Walked up to the shops for another box of Whiskas for the Hedgehogs. There's a couple of youngsters started visiting, the hole in the fence is above the concrete gravel board so I placed a house brick next to it so they can more easily clamber through. With the dry spell it's good practice to place bowls of fresh water in the garden, our wildlife cameras have really opened our eyes to just how many overnight visitors there are.🦔🦊🐈‍⬛🦡

Later will be having wine and snacks and watching some YouTube.

Accompanied my youngest at his first Olympic distance triathlon this morning, he did really well and even on my 20 year old Van Nicholas CX bike with a Brooks saddle! posted a pretty respectable time.

A few days ago there was a thread on obesity and how young people were eating junk food.
Then I read on here what people are eating and I wonder where it all started.😳

Well I dont class my home made burger as junk......made with 5% fat beef. Skin on fries.... acceptable in my eyes.

WoW... euro athletics.
GB Just won gold in the 4 x 100 mtrs. They ran an excellent race.
It also gives Amey Hunt a record 4th gold.

It’s still fried food.
Then there’s the full English fry up for breakfast. Carry on and kid yourself Dave.😏

No, none of it was fried and no cooking oil was used. Dry cooked in the air fryer.
One full English with veggie sausage per week i am happy with.
5'6" 9 stone 7lbs at age 79.....I am OK with that.
