Excellent fella. Pleased to hear it. Youโ€™ll be glad to get home and get settled. You should come home, cold enough to kill every germ known to man ๐Ÿ˜

Bloody hell fella. Hopefully, thatโ€™s it, and youโ€™ll be back on the road to recovery. How the hell do you sleep with that drain in ? I assume it was a bit rude of your Dad to give you that middle name ๐Ÿ˜‰

Bloody hell fella. Itโ€™s a wonder you could breathe at all. And I thought my lungs were full ๐Ÿ˜ฑ

Glad youโ€™re on the mend buddy. I did the same. Chest infection โ€˜Iโ€™m fine, Iโ€™m fineโ€™ when in fact my lungs were full of fluid ๐Ÿ˜ฌ No where near your situation, but yes, we should maybe pay attention to our respective good ladies.

He has a perfectly good bed, and this is how I found him this morning. Heโ€™s out of sorts at the minute. Iโ€™m wondering whether his whole routine has been disrupted over Christmas. Iโ€™ll be keeping a close eye on him ๐Ÿ˜ž

Jock Dog has enjoyed his Christmas to the point itโ€™s taken too much out of him ๐Ÿ˜

FFS fella. I hadnโ€™t seen you on the other place and just thought you werenโ€™t posting over the festive season. Hereโ€™s to a speedy recovery ๐Ÿ˜

As we move into 2025 Iโ€™ll be contacting banks, and start to look seriously at the cost of 6 month rentals in the South of France. Everything going well, house should be on the market in May, and retiring to France by the 2nd week in September 25. Looking forward to our new adventure ๐Ÿ˜ ๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท

Unfortunately, the cold air plays havoc with my lungs (asthma), and the damp months plays havoc with my joints. Hence the proposed move ๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท

After a wee but of a health scare Jock Dog has now been given a clean bill of health. A lump turned out to be just a fatty lump. Phew ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ

You know something, you may well be right. We will be back from time to time, 3 kids to keep in touch with, unless of course I can persuade them to come over, enjoy that sun, the wine and possibly the pool ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท

It was my stupidity (no surprise to those who know me). I was pressing the photo button and not the video button (didnโ€™t know there was a difference).

Just tried to post a video that posted without issue on X. Couldnโ€™t post here, anybody know why?

My Kindle arrives today. The plan is to keep the TV off and read a lot more. I know Iโ€™ll miss the feel of real books, but I need to donate all my books before the move to France ๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท

Iโ€™m wondering if there would be any interest on this platform to document our permanent move to the South of France #France #Retirement

Cold one this morning. Temperature was down to -8 but has since risen to -3. Itโ€™s going to be a lovely day ๐Ÿ˜€

Ah yes, a right winger & a conspiracy theorist. If you are looking to find out more about the politics & laws of Scotland & the other countries that make up the UK I would respectfully suggest you widen your research sir.

Just donating all my books. Moving to Kindle shortly.
