The Retirement Thread

[Mike Ayling]

Good morning all.
Some domestics to do and then out with Millie for a bit.
I have to into London later so I'll pump the tyres up on the Brompton and cycle to the station and get the Underground in.

I read recently that more of The Underground is on the surface rather being actually underground!

Morning all

Stuff to do today: shopping, dog walking, lawn cutting, drop parcel off at Post Office, bike fettling.

Bruce and Geddy walked. Took them for a lap of the industrial estate for a change. Now sat doon with a coffee.

Feel a bit ick, slight headache, queasy. Mrs D has had a minor bug these last few ways and it seems she may have passed it on to moi.

Good morning from a post autumn equinox Dorset. It's bright, it's light, it's mild 😎. Stopped by Decathlon yesterday to pick up some bike lights for granddaughters bike. They have an extremely cheerful meeter and greeter by the door, same chap as last week. " Good afternoon sir" as I walked in and a " thank you " on the way out. I suppose he could also be the security guy in civvies waiting to sort out any ne'er do wells, but I prefer to think he's landed his dream job and it's made him a happy chappie 😁
Mrs Tkk has just headed out for a double pilates/ Yoga session and I'm yet to decide my plans.
Have a peaceful day folks 😎

As per Drago I also had a slight headache so only walked for a couple of miles. It was chucking it down earlier but was off by 7 so got out then.

Morning all. 16° and raining here. Its supposed to stop around lunch time so I MIGHT** get a stroll in then.
**its my Wednesday pub lunch which tends to go on a bit so might not feel like walking by then.

Busy morning so far.. Dog walked, breakfast eaten & the labels in my new undercrackers (yes, certain person, new ones are available for purchase) have been cut out as they were irritating the base of my spine! 😋

Now you will put them on back to front.

I’m the same, I’ve got a horrible cold, but life carries on, too much to do!

I have been informed that my hair needs cutting

These days I am reliant of SWMBO for things like this as I never look in mirrors

When I was a teacher in secondary school the kids assumed that role
One group would tell me when my shadow from the projector showed too much hair sticking up when I look bald(ish - lots of hair - they are just very very very very thin)

and later my form group took that role very seriously when my eyebrows started "to look weird"

now my wife make comments like "the bits at the side at starting to look like horns"


so I suppose I better go to the barbers - which is OK as the kids are back in school so it should be quiet
