Barnet,
Good morning all fellow retirees.
A few jobs to do today. As usual the dog has to be walked, then a ride out on the bike for some supplies as a couple of friends are coming over later for a late lunch.
That means the grass has to be cut, I was planning on doing it tomorrow so a busy morning. I'd better get started.
Stay safe everyone.

Good morning all. A busy day yesterday featuring two sixteen mile rides out, one morning solo one and second one in the evening with Danni. I've had some parcels arrive; some work on the bike resulted, More parcels due today and another couple soon. I'll show you the result of my efforts with a pic or two soon.

I haven't managed to catch up on the back reading as yet, but trust that everyone is keeping well and enjoying decent weather. xx I'll be back in later for a good browse.

Mrs Tenkay is cycling around various Scottish Islands
The designers of these games virtual cycling experiences could really have some fun with adding realistic Hebridean touches. Driving wind and rain, midges, ferry crossings, delayed/cancelled ferry crossings, midges, finding everything closed because it’s the Sabbath (certain islands only), and not forgetting the midges ^_^ Such fun ^_^. There’s a few good things too :okay:

Looking good out there.
Hitching up in a couple of hours time and towing down to the Blackdown Hills.
Be sad to say goodbye to our best mates, after a very enjoyble 5 days together, but we're already arranging our next meet up. ^_^

Morning all. It’s a lovely morning here in the sunny uplands of the midlands lol. Have got my normal Friday walk to the butchers in a few mins and then a few little jobs to do.
But I am starting to think I am going mad , because what I should be doing this afternoon as the weather is so good and wind is so light is getting my bike out and going for a ride for a couple of hours . BUT what I really want to do is have 40 mins on the turbo trainer. I have definitely been in lock down too long lol 😂😂If it goes on like this I might even have to start looking for part time w@@k lol.😂😂😀

Ps happy birthday to mrs Dave r

Morning all.... Thanks for the birthday good wishes yesterday. I had a fabulous day, daughter came over and is staying for a couple of days. It's funny how daughters seem to enjoy making a big fuss over their dads to make it extra special. :smile:

Busy day again today, and it's going to be scorchio as well. Enjoy your day folks! 🌈

Happy birthday Mrs DaveR :birthday:

Bonjour and happy birthday to Mrs Dave.:birthday:
Looks quite decent outside so will go for a ride after walking Molly and doing a bit of shopping. Two of our grandchildren are staying over for the night and I promised them to have a BBQ tonight. Why are kids so fussy about their food though? One will only have chicken nuggets or fish fingers/cakes and chips. He is 10 years old. The other one ( 7 ) won't eat brown bread because he says it is dirty. Oh well, at least they won't starve and hope they enjoy it.
Have a good day everyone.:hello:
