Who's Lando Norris?

A very cute racing driver from out Brizzle way.

I accidentally put my last piece of mundanity in the wrong thread.

We have probably all done that at some time.

Would you like me to delete it for you? I think you can delete your own posts for a short while, or you can just leave it there.

Don't worry about it. It is nothing incriminating!

I have to empty MrsPete's car washer bottle as it smells yucky.. I did do it a short while ago but the yuck remains.
We have a citrus screenwash now. Hopefully that'll do the trick!

Lunch ride done, only a quick 10 miler/35 minutes on the road bike. Sun came out once I was home

Road bike is splattered with building muck though - ah well, quick wipe down. Houses being built and the road sweeper was out swishing the dirt around.

Lunchtime stroll around the block

I'm hungry.

Lunch negotiated. A very fine sandwich with home made coronation chicken, a pear, half a punnet of cherries and two

I am now watching the cycling.

No visible damage: it's half underground so at the point of impact it's backed up by several thousand tonnes of the Federal Republic.

At least you've no repair work to start when you get home.

Doing the same as you, minus that delicious sounding lunch.
A green tea with a slice of fresh ginger is de-toxing me after FAR too much booze on sunday night.

P.s. Any of you guys unable to get your imogees up? Been like that for a couple of days now ;-(

There used to be a thread called something like "Change the name of a television programme".

I cannot find it, even with my "secret" powers and have thought of two more possibilities.

"Holmes under the Hammer" Sherlock has to auction his house.

"Foyle's Wardrobe" Inspector Foyle leaves MI5 and goes to work in MFI.

I expect Classic will use his search skills and find it in about ten seconds flat.

You mean The TV cucumber game?

Ah, well, being teetotal does have its advantages.

MV Coruisk is out of action again due to an ongoing engine management problem. Best guess is this will take several days to fix.
MV Isle of Mull is booked to capacity anyway and those booked on Coruisk are advised to go via Lochaline which does not add much if travelling to say Glasgow of Inverness but Oban is 80 miles and Corran ferry as well.
MV Loch Linnhe has been pinched from Cumbrae I think and has to do a shuttle service to try to clear the chaos.
So much for my projected trip to Oban.
I can only repeat "the joys of island life". It does have compensations despite the current tourist mayhem which apart from the road for triking can be avoided mostly.

Have you ever thought of buying your own boat? 🛳
