Actually he is looking at his phone

Though who's to say that he isn't looking at a picture of a pie on said phone

Very sorry to hear that. It's always a tough decision to have to make.

to you.

We had some lovely cold cider at lunchtime. On our way home now. I took a photo of some specimum popies in the pub garden.


And for something really random, how about the loo roll holder in the ladies!!

Thank you all for the sympathy and the stupidity which I needed. Having a cider and possibly a few whiskeys in a bit. Not looking forward to telling my daughter on Saturday but maybe it's a time to get up the cat rescue and let her pick a new cat. He had a great life and I hope someone does the same to me if I am suffering. So I want to see lots of qualifying pictures over the weekend, but I doubt it will happen. X

Sorry to hear your news Al
brings back sad memories for me however after 5yrs of no pets i succumbed last September at the RSPCA and have never looked back.

i am now totally owned by a 2yr old furball

Of course you could always adopt Potsy.

If you have the weather we have in Somerset it's not good for a ride to the pub. It's not good to even ride to the shops. I have fitted a new cassette to the carbon bike plus new gear cables. Polished the seat post on the steel bike and now off on the, i hate to say it, the bus into Bristol. Have a great Friday and thanks for cheering me up yesterday. Feeling more like my old happy self today.

@BigAl68

Tis rather wet here today. I thought I would check the tyre pressures so that I am ready to go out if it brightens up later.

In case you were wondering, yes, I do sometimes wear a helmet.
