Yes Dave it was a good break, my granddaughter loves it, but now I am on a 14 hour fast, then tomorrow morning down to the hospital to let them take my blood, I have my yearly Diabetic clinic to go to on the 30th Aug.

In my experience neither can most Doctors Harry, they usually get a Nurse or a lab Technician to do it.

On the subject of lists!! they are ganging up on me here wife, daughter, grandson, today my youngest was asking if I was enjoying my retirement, (while she was adding to the list) my reply was, yes I am enjoying myself, but if I was at work I would at least get to sit down. 
Regards Kev.

hiya,
Kev you missed your opportunity for getting rid of the instruments of torture,
your last week as an employed person should have been utilised as a means of
unloading the above mentioned (tools) you could have placed them into neat
little piles in laybyâs when availing yourself of the compulsory 45s you can be
assured they wouldnât be there for long, you having the excuse you was doing
a little roadside repair and put them on the ground drove off forgetting them
when you returned to collect them you found them gone, there you go Kev Iâm
giving you another excuse for free, my book wonât be worth reading shortly.
thanks harry, long retired.

Now now Kev, stay calm, youâre the leader, ignore the buggas. If you have a small paper shredder one thing that really does pis* off the authors of these lists is, take it, look at it, shred it. It worked for me, never saw another list. No shredderâ â ? burning the list has the same effect.
Tell her/them youâre VERY busy, they will sayâŚâdoing whatâ?..âRESTING, NOW BUGGA OFFâ

hiya,
Brian, do you mind if I incorporate some of your ideas and dodges into my
revised book of âDodges for the retired Gentlemanâ Iâll cut you in on some
of the royalties, we could maybe clean up between us therefore being able
to double our intake of the golden nectar, ohâ that permanent stupor ehâ.
thanks harry, long retired.
I never wanted to go back to work, I say I love to do that job, but my eyes are not so good. Now I donât get asked.

Iâm 72 but after spending 51 years in the transport industry, I feel more like 82.
On the wit and wisdom side of this,in the garage where i work,a vehicle was dropped off for a 6 weekly inspection. Our collection/delivery driver (a retired
driver of 30+ years experience) walked in with a huge smile on his face,and handed
over the note left in the cab by the driver,it saidâŚ
To (our company name)
Please check the following faults :-
I believe i have faulty front tyres,as they squeel when iâm going round a
roundabout
The radio is very noisey when the volume is turned up
what can you sayâŚ
hiya,
Remember a driver phoning in to report he had âbent his axleâ it turned out
heâd done a half shaft, well he was only a young unâ as it turned out he got
lumbered with the handle âbent axlesâ just about forever after that gaff.
thanks harry, long retired.
A driver where I was working defected a lorry,because,
âthis vehicle consistantly goes above 60mphâ 
Ray
Should have told him to take the iead out of his right boot. Once in the marathon I had the accelerator freeze solid due to wrong grease used in sub zero conditions, it was a little hair raising, but I got it back to warmer climates, but ended up with a hole in my foot and shoe.
