The Retirement Thread

[Paulus]

It's a tad cool this morning, only 6⁰ at the moment.
First time for months I'll be wearing a long sleeved top when cycling down to the Doctors.

Bonjour.
Dentist this afternoon for my yearly check up and that's all the excitement for today.

Cool this morning - might be time to dig out the winter duvets!

ENT appointment this evening
no idea what it is for - but will go along and see - could be nose or ears or something else
didn;t even know abou tit until I got a reminder!

I sat in the lounge with my early morning coffee............and a blanket over my knees!

I'm wearing my cosy Oodie or whatever these things are called. It was a very chilly but pleasant walk earlier.

Where's @Dave7 ?? He's late. Is everything OK?

Is this the day he goes in for his cataract op?

Just checked....it was yesterday so he maybe doesn't want to spend time on screens until his eyes settle.?

 

[numbnuts]

Monring, only 9c here

Sound right
If he is here but can't type yet - hope you're OK

Someone on our local Facebook page put this up earlier. Presumably from a drone.

Shows how our town is set in a bit of a basin surrounded by hills. I think this is why we often miss really bad weather when it's forecast as it seems to work it's way round the hills and misses us.

I can tell it's the 1st No 14 omnibus after 09:30 as it's full of old people 😂

Ah, yes. It was yesterday, that could well be the reason.

People often forget how much height matters regarding weather

Dave often posts about how it is raining in Warrington
but it is dry here and you can see the clouds approaching from wherever and separating over the low lying land around here

or possibly a local coven has it in for Warrington
