Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.
There once was a man named Dave
Who kept a cow in a cave
It shriveled and shrank
And oh how it stank
But all he could think of was the money saved!


There was a wee lassie called Mo
Daily over hill and valley she'd go
She tried to upload to strava
Oh boy what a palava
Won't you pause a mo, for wee Mo.


I see O'Classic is getting Into the swing of things on the limerick side. Excellent they are to.:laugh:

Weather is lively. It's almost as windy outside my Y fronts as within.

Barnet,
Morning all, It is blowing a gale outside. Myself and MrsP will walk across the fields and stop at the cafe on the way. A bit of shopping to be done at the local butcher and greengrocers and the I'll retire to the Mitre for a couple of ales. My son has invited us over later on to watch the Spurs game and he is getting the curry in. :hungry:
An update on my hand--.itis now only half the size it was. The prescribed drugs are working. Sorry John, you may have to wait for the Condor.:tongue:

Well, after looking at the forecast for today and tomorrow, I changed my mind about returning to bed and jumped in the car and drove a few miles and did a nearby trail run. Bit hilly. Coming straight out of the car and setting of uphill is tough going but made it. Bath had, porridge just finished and need a cuppa now after I extract Molly from my lap.

:hello: WOW! Slept till 7.30 after going to bed at 10.45 as was absolutely nackered. Yesterday was previously reported housework blitz, followed by 6.5 mile walk, 40 minute nap, tea and then quiz night accompanied by our walking friends. About 9.30pm all agreed we were exhausted - this was the point I realised I'd been on the go for 14 hours straight!!!! :heat:

I've got a lot of holly to burn but it's raining. Think I might just arse about all day instead.

Waspinator! This is a thing and it seems to work. In a pub garden yesterday and sitting close by a Waspinator we were only bothered by one wasp despite there being many around.

The Waspinator mimics a wasp nest. Wasps are very territorial and avoid other nests for fear of attack.

My only neighbour has one of those hanging from the guttering of his house. I thought it was real when I first saw it.^_^

Good morning - It's windy but the rain has blown through and it should stay dry in the mid-south according to ventusky.com.

I'll be going to check the allotment this morning to see that everything is OK and going to my brother's house this afternoon. Both trips by bike. They will be windy rides but the e-bike should make easy work of them.
