I don't do any DIY whatsoever
Missus even hangs the pictures
She was re grouting a few tiles the other week while I was watching Tele
My motto, if you can pay someone to do a better job than yourself, pay em.
That's my problem, I'm too tight. Don't want to pay someone and be disappointed when I can quite easily disappoint myself for free.
Won't touch plastering or plumbing though... too much history there

I've discovered Dulux Satinwod... next to no prep, covers well , dries quick and you clean your brushes in soapy water... if it doesnt move I paint it at the moment 😆

I'll start you off with painting walls in your house.
I needed to paint some walls in advance of getting the house on the market and with trade being so quiet of late, cashflow not being great and not knowing any decorators who'd do it as a favour or for a discount off a holiday, I thought I'd have a go myself.
Jesus H Fucking Christ, it looks like Harvey Price has done it.
Never again.Try lime washing... got let down so decided to do it myself... never ending, 4 coats at least, even got a cherry picker in to do the gable end... took 2 months to get my back right.

The tripple lock is a nonsense.
Fuck off you old farts, you have been lucky enough to buy houses at nothing and then you want to move to Spain.
Just disgusting.
What has how a horse trots got to do with it?
Calm down and lose that huge chip on your shoulder

Just a quick reminder that there is no evidence that ice baths do anything other than make you feel very cold 😁
Two nutmegs and a chipolata... no thanks

Hegseth using the speech from Pulp Fiction for his prayer for the soldiers thinking it is a legitimate bible verse.
Outstanding
I read somewhere "Hegseth is to Christianity what Al Qaeda is to Islam"

I’m not saying pensions shouldn’t rise, but gettIng the pick of three variables isn’t right.
Maybe more means testing should be introduced... it is wrong to punish those who cannot go out on strike or whatever because we want to fight wars and subsidise a generation of benefit claiming losers

Change Fold to Moor and it's ditto.

I think I could support that and also scrap the triple lock.I think I speak from experience, not all pensioners are driving around in 70k motorhomes and planning lifes in sunny climates.
Pensioners are on fixed incomes and cannot just go out and do an extra shift or put their rates up if things get tight. Also, I have realised that as you get older your energy level starts to drop and you do feel the cold more.
Me? I'm just a Tonge Fold headbanger and will always survive no matter what sh1t is slung at me.

But it’s just not funny anymore though is it? The guy is a lunatic and needs to be sectioned sooner rather than later. He is a pathological narcissist and compulsive liar. He shouldn’t be allowed to run his own bath let alone the US.
This is world politics and economies. This is people’s livelihoods. This is life and death.
And yet the Republicans still won’t help invoke the 25th.
The US have found themselves in a No Win Catch 22 situation...
If he was removed from office, what happens next? Do they just say "sorry" to the Iranians? What will the Chinese do when they see the weakness? Israel and the American Jewish community?
The list goes on...

As long as he was 500 feet from any person, vessel or structure...😁

Most doctors dress like Jesus, whilst curing the sick with light-based miracles, so let’s give him the benefit of the doubt.
Didn't he suggest we put UV lights up our jacksies to cure covid?

Ours is in the Ribble Valley/Forest of Bowland. No vineyard but plenty of great pubs.
Not boasting, just giving encouragement to anyone who works hard and does the right thing then retirement can be great.
That’s if you make it this far. I know many who didn’t.Every morning is a privilege, I often think about the ones who haven't got as far down the path as me, all good pals.
Don't spend too much time planning, I've seen a few going into it to the n'th degree with spreadsheets and financial tax consulltants, they then park their big motorhome on the drive and roll over and die... I suppose the dream kept them going without thinking about what happens next.

ll be a happy man if I can retire in the Scottish highlands & get out for plenty of walks & cycles. I find Europe ridiculously too hot in the summer these days. And it’s only getting worse with the droughts.
I can see the appeal though
We love our caravan on the moors behind Whitby and the walking
PS... There's a vineyard 30 minutes walk away

Men behind 'Tripadvisor for people smugglers' at car wash jailed - BBC News https://share.google/IUQtpsVaeEzBkXyId
Smashing the gangs.
Although I'm sure a few on here still think these migrants a fleeing war torn countries and persecution and trapse off in their flip flops in search of a better life
Oh and these car washes and Turkish Barbers are all legitimate businesses.
That is why I wash my own car

Nothing wrong with having a financial plan but think about all the time you will suddenly have... that's the bit I find difficult, I'm avoiding boredom and lack of direction because I know that will be the end for me... there are very few retirees I actually like to hang out with

I’d spend my time keeping fit, cycling, walking and travelling, watching as much sport as possible. Loads to do in Europe and better weather to do it in. I’ve been for a country walk today and although cool it was pleasant and sunny, to many drab, wet dreary and depressing days here for me.
Just be careful is my advice... set the alarm clock for 7am and actually do things. Just like dogs we need routine.
I tend to avoid retirees as they tend to be boring and negative, try to avoid that club please
