  • WTF? Is it a mix of cream soda and cola, Rob?

    Yeah. Taste like the old ice cream floats we used to do as kids. Coke with a lump of ice cream in it 👌
  • The missus suggesting that I get the National Express up from Ringwood for the Watford game while she looks after her mum... Bless her!

    I hope you are doing something memorable to mark the day @Killarahales. Don't be like my mate who I saw a couple of months after his retirement:
    Me: What've you been up to?
    Him: Oh nothing much, just watching Father Brown, you know.
    Me: No, I don't know!

    First thing I did on my first day of what transpired to be my retirement, was go to the garden centre and sign up for a 'friends' card for a 10% discount on anything, but mainly the café. The most old persony thing I've ever done.
    I consoled myself that, centre employees aside, there was nobody in the cafe I couldn't beat in a fight. Three years later, that remains the case, though the gap is closing fast.
    Mrs Idle (who still works) and I have brunch there almost every Monday. It's nice to have some structure to your week. I haven't been bored for a moment since I stopped working. 
    Whatever you do, enjoy it!

    Went early and had a couple of dozen oysters, washed down with a bottle of Muscadet (with my girlfriend) at the weekend. This week is all about Wimbledon and the cricket, with centre court tickets on Sunday! But I do have some more interesting plans other than watching other people do stuff.

    Spot on! It's such a luxury to have time to do what you want without worrying about time off work and all that crap. I had lots of weeks and weekends away that first summer, either with Mrs or with mates, and it was fantastic. It's tailed off only slightly now, due to having to do the house up for sale. Then we'll move and start again.
  • I notice that roughly double the number of Charlton fans,  are positive and able to find things that please them, rather than those posting negative opinions!.
