It's Friday

[stevewool]

Well the day has arrived and I am so excited,
The car I hope will be fixed and life will get back to some sort of normality.
Emma is not working this weekend, which is always great .
May book our holiday if all is well with the car.
And last but not lease, we are all going to live on £ 40 per. Calendar month after reading Michaels shopping bill,
I am truly blessed,

[Longweekend]

I agree Steve, and if everyone followed the 'Michael Diet' the savings could solve the UK debt problem....:biggrin:

[Arthur Little]

:iagree: ... 'tis indeed, Friday. But ... :anerikke: ... being happily retired, every day for me's a holiday. I recommend it! :smile:

[Longweekend]

Arthur, recommending it and being able to afford it are two very different things....:cwm25:

If you stopped going to Costa coffee you could knock years of that figure, better still move in with Michael then pay half to the dripping fund and you will be quids in.

Dripping???I have eaten all sorts of crap in my time,used to have bread and dripping as a kid,but nowadays i would have to be quite hungry to be able to stomach it :NoNo:

It all depends on how many grains of salt you sprinkle onto it, plus you can't put to many on as the salt shaker has not been filled for 70+ years, it's still half full.

I have calculated I'm going to have to work until I'm 67, by then my youngest will have finished Uni, then its pack up and off to France, even the wife is looking forward to it.......:biggrin:

My original plan was retire at 50,thats gone out of the window :bigcry: my kids in his 4'th year of uni,studying medicine,its a long course,and when i hit 50 i realised theres a lot of things i need to see and do,that all costs cash,flying lessons this year for example,so as i said i am planning to retire at 807 :smile: we all have bucket lists and they all cost cash sadly.

[Longweekend]

Crikey if you plan to retire at 807 you should be pretty well off by then....

[Tawi2]

I hope so :wink: but you know as well as i do that our greatest riches arent monetary or posessions,its how well our kids are doing,if they are doing well then we have all the riches in the world,thats true riches money cant buy :smile:

[stevewool]

Well my first plan of many was to retire at 60 , should have enough by then ,
The next 37 plans was to retire at the end of every bloody day.
But the plan is now to retire when Emma says I can, which is in her eyes 60 ,as that is what we agreed in the first place.
Being only 58, and yes I know I don't look it ,I still have a year to try to convince her to go early, but every month we are here we save 5 months living over in the Philippines, or put it another way 5.2 years spending £40 a month

[stevewool]

Well its Saturday and i have no car,
The fuel tank is taking a little longer to get of and refit, i got the call yesterday that they may not get in ready and would Saturday be ok.
Well what could i say but OK, as long as its done right is the main concern.
Now can anyone help me in the next problem.
These big flat things that are on the end of my legs which one moves first when you have to walk far,:Erm:

What would I want with a gun range,
Just having 4 days there seeing the sites and eating and just enjoying ourselves, hope it snows too, now that would be nice.

[Terpe]

Prague is one of my favourite European Cities.

Plenty of great good value tours, especially the walking ones (day or night)
Be sure to include the Town Square and Charles Bridge.

Hope the weather will be kind.

Some wonderful beers available to go with some great foods.

[stevewool]

I do like Prague, and in the 4 times I have been I have never seen a stag or hen night which is supposed to be famous for,

Thats how i knew about the gun range,went on my mates stag,most of the other guys wanted to fire submachine guns as they hadnt shot before :smile: my mate had 2 strippers in his limo :cwm25:

[stevewool]

I am a idol git, plus the CAR is back :xxgrinning--00xx3:

Well the cars back, but the fuel gauge seems to be playing up it moves but just above empty, I made sure I filled the car up but it just does the same.
Back to the garage but if it's another part needed, I may call it quits and just fill the car every few weeks.

[stevewool]

Great news the fuel gauge seems to have come back to life, on my way home tonight i was doing a little swerving and going round traffic island a little quick and it seems to have helped ,
