After Work

summerisle · February 9, 2017

How do you relax ? For me, a small port reinvigorates aching limbs ; tonight, Cockburns Special Reserve, otherwise a smoky malt or Welsh rarebit. For some reason, a peal of church bells is smoothing.

But sometimes you want a bit of oomph.

Cheers ! :pint2:

Coffee, cigarettes and porn before,during and after work is the correct answer.

Cook, music, running, hour or so of TV. Try to stay off the computer after staring at one all day.

Who works anymore.......retirement is a wonderful invention.....however after a hard day of doing very little, I like to visit the pub and enjoy the company of friends, then come on here and wind a few people up.......

When I was working full time, an hour in the sauna from September through till April, then fishing in the summer evenings helped me unwind.

Spare a thought for us who work a 12 hour day or night
If I'm days I collapse after me tea
After nights straight to me scratcher

True relaxing is Xbox and heavy metal. Happens rarely though...

Play with my kids. Dinner. Kids in bed. Clean everything up.

Legal pot.

Video games/television/books.

Need a proper hobby here. But motivation at 8 pm? Need to work on that too, I suppose.

I'd go with this. However in my recent retired week ice been suffering a dose of the flu. Thus isn't man flu, it's sit in the bed and contemplate writing a will flu. It's mainly gone now apart from a really irritating rattle on my chest that won't go.
I got so annoyed I decided to walk down to the chemists, about 3/4 mile away to get something to shift it. Even though the missus was home she didn't offer a lift.
Opposite is the post office, so I picked up a parcel I had a card for. This parcel was a 5000kg box of bird food the missus had ordered. I struggled home with it, with the tail end of my flu, smelling vaguely of eucalyptus that was seering my lungs in the ice air, and in the snow, being followed by a flock of something looking it had come from a Hitchcock film to find I'd been locked out as she'd taken the ruddy dog for a walk.
Sake.
Beer night.
