Nicepix 5,650 Posted May 14, 2022 Report Share Posted May 14, 2022 (edited) This has been my office for the last three days. The wife's sisters are coming over for the first time in three years so everything has to be just right so that I can bugger off for a few days on my own fishing Just got to pick them up from the airport, feed them and then I'm a free man for four days.

Hopefully we should get enough for it to buy an end terrace house in Barnsley. And I'm not joking. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I know you’re not mate, each to their own like and I get it about getting on in years and all that but personally that would break my heart leaving something like that and moving back to this f***ing dive (I’m in the U.K. visiting the last couple of days) 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The house and garden take a lot of looking after so we will need to downsize in a few years. It would break my heart to see it deteriorate like so many houses do when the owners can't keep up with things. And Little Wife doesn't fancy ending her years away from her family. If anything happened to me she would find things a lot harder to sell up and move back on her own. Hopefully we can find somewhere rural within an hour or so of her family. Having said that, if her sisters don't live for very much longer she won't feel the need to return. They arrive in a couple of hours and by the time the police find the bodies I'll be 200km away fishing the River Lot with my alibi. Just keep it to yourself Edited May 15, 2022 by Nicepix 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Just keep it to yourself I’d genuinely advise anyone to go back and live amongst it for a while and then make decisions. Like this last few days, weather has been nice, seen a few old pals, quiet enough….it can catch you out…..until you go in the Co-Op and see the shop assistant wearing a body cam !! …….she ain’t wearing that for no reason. As I say, each to their own but not for me…..life has to be better than body cams in super markets surely, that ain’t no way to live. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
