The Retirement Thread

[ktmbiker58]

A mate of mine who plays in a local Silver band played his first Christmas concert of the year last night at a local garden centre! In keeping with the early Christmas spirit I have cooked a Christmas dinner for tonight, sprouts, stuffing the works although in the interest of full disclosure the part of the turkey is being played by a couple of chicken drum sticks - oh, and I haven't got any crackers to provide the silly hat either!

The boat stoves are on, batteries nearly 100% slight rolling every now and then with the wind and rain. Jack Benoit blues live on alexa, jacket spud on the stove for dinner.

I confess to not knowing of Jack Benoit. I must google the name.

@Dave7 his blues style is fabulous.

I've got a 15.30 slot booked at the tip if anyone has anything to get rid of.. Leaving at 15.10 so look lively!!

Snap . Different tip but same time .

Am starting to declutter before the electrician comes to do the rewire . I think the tip run will be one of many 😂.
Spent the morning tidying the the spare bedroom and half filling car with rubbish then moved onto the loft. And filled the rest of the car with 6 bags of children’s toys plus a Barbie airplane 😂

Been to my first u3a quizz session this afternoon and I was completely out of my depth. The question were way too hard for me but I will go again next time
Molly been walked earlier as the rain has stopped but the wind has not.

I've heard of Tab Benoit but not Jack 🤷‍♂️

 

[Oldhippy]

That'll be my auto spell and me not paying attention. It is Tab. Double check to make sure it hasn't changed before pressing post.

So, if I want Alexa to play him is Benoit pronounce Benwah?

Spotted this example of " fusion food " whilst waiting for a bus earlier today. Why not use a chapatti? It would be less messy than trying to manoeuvre a baguette into your cake hole 🤔

Agree, my 1st thought was, how do you get that in your gob ?

 

[mrushton]

It's a baguette. Why? I want a naan or Chapatti or a Paratha. French style bread is not something I want with curry. They are just trying it on
