Re: Cabin Fever !
If you're bored Richard I can find plenty for you to do round mine, I'll even treat you to a six pack of Guinness
Look, my paintwork hasn't got "Fish scales" they're "Dragon scales" right!!! However, after some thought, I will accept "Black Marlin" or "Swordfish", but definitely not "Haddock" or "Cod".

Re: Cabin Fever !
Unfortunately my wife is in the shielding category so I had to collect essential medication
for her yesterday. Took the kettle and filled it with fresh fuel on the way back.
(also both essential!)

Inspired by Richards list of jobs he's been doing, I thought I'd let you all know what a hard day I've had.itsnotateapot wrote:Since I haven't been able to work here is a list of jobs I have done so far.

Since I'm a naturally lazy git, here's a list of my daily chores.
Got up early (8.30) and thought I'd better have a decent breakfast before getting stuck in.
One bowl of cornflakes (hot milk ) and two slices of cheese on toast later I'm ready.
Walked to the shop for a newspaper and a few other essentials.
Knackered now after carrying that heavy bag, so time for a well earned rest and a coffee.
Put the recycling boxes out, knackered again so time to watch a bit of telly.
Finally got round to reading the paper, best thing in there is Jeremy Clarksons column and the soduko.
Knackered again after that brain workout, so time for lunch.
Feeling a bit sleepy now but determined not to be lazy, so read a CMM and started Henry Coles "A Bikers Life".
Went in the garage and looked at both my Suzukis.
Sat down again and watched some more telly.
Phoned my mate Brian to tell him this years Lincolnshire bike nights have all been cancelled, both had a good cry.
Had a really nice cordon bleu dinner (pizza and chips).
Absolutely knackered now, so settling down to a few beers and a decent movie.
Apart from the above I haven't done much
What have you lot been doing?
Joking apart it's great this retirement lark and I think I've managed to adapt to it quite easily.
Look, my paintwork hasn't got "Fish scales" they're "Dragon scales" right!!! However, after some thought, I will accept "Black Marlin" or "Swordfish", but definitely not "Haddock" or "Cod".

The really strange thing Richard is when I was at work she never said nothing now if I spend a few (ahem) hours in the shed she goes off the deep enditsnotateapot wrote:My missis prefers it when I'm in the garage.PaulD738 wrote:I’ve spent the last week in the man cave farting about with the T500
