Lousy night's sleep thanks to the rain and wind on my bedroom window. Still very wet out there, but at least the coffee tastes good this morning. Off to Brands Hatch in about 45 minutes time.

They are boring !I was out on the bike and there was a skip outside a house with an exercise bike sitting on top of all the rubbish.
It seems that every time that I see a skip outside a house, there's an exercise bike lying on top of it. Why do people buy these things and not use them?
Metoo. And a 3330 + afew more oldun's 😁I still have a working Nokia 3310
And no, not the recent re-launched one.

Morning. My first attempt at brewing a pot of tea omitted the tea. My second and successful attempt profited from a thoroughly warmed pot.
The weather is calmer than yesterday.

Good morning. No side effects from the vaccination so far except a slight stiffness in the left arm.

They are mind numbing boring for one thing.I was out on the bike and there was a skip outside a house with an exercise bike sitting on top of all the rubbish.

Dry day forecast but a moderate NE wind so freezing cold. I may venture out on the trike later to see if the roads are not too busy.
If you want shouty threads try one on Sea Eagles and tourists on Mull. I thought I got a bit cantankerous sometimes but you really need a tin hat and full body armour to go on our local FB page today. The tourists who have no idea but think they know everything are in full on battle with locals who have had enough of sea eagles and too many tourists as well as holiday homes.
I have commented sometimes in my posts on this forum that there is a lack of bird life and no rabbits or hares. It seems my observations are correct on that score and there are also examples of eagles taking domestic pets. Even cats have been seen to be taken near to houses. Lambs of course are a prime target and the farmers do get some compensation but not enough to cover the losses.
Must go and get my armour on again and give them a poke with a sharp stick

As Robert Louis Stevenson said, the great affair is to move. I never saw the point of a bike that doesn't move.
Weird TiVo box not working properly.Tried all i can do from this end.So a call to Virgin ,got a test and a diagnosis some cables are not powerful enough,WHAT,anyway got them out now and making them do exercises,NO YOU DON'T STOP TILL I TELL YOU, UP ONE UP TWO,so two cables arriving next week,so it looks like you pay x number of £'s each month and you do your own repairs.I thought Mrs P was dumping Virgin in January to go to Freeview it seems i was wrong.

Well it's been a glum old week. On Tuesday the sick cats illnesses overran the vets, mine and sick cats abilities and I instructed he be euthanised.
I have been digging out a formidable evergreen bush that I disliked since I bought our house and have sorely learned of the tenacity of a roots, rocks and soil amalgam coupled with pensioner upper body strength.
I wondered if large veterinary clinics had cold storage facilities when I began to think about plans for his end and yes they do.
Trying to swing a mattock next to a wall is challenging work.
