I do hope you lot are behaving yourselves. It'll make a nice change.

Is this lot capable of behaving themselves?

First coffee been drunk, now what to do for the rest of the day, a bike ride for sure at some point. We were supposed to be going on holiday next Friday, I thought I would be feeling more regret about not going, got to find something else to spend the money on I guess, any idea's.

Nice to see tinned tomatoes Can’t stand those grilled things.May as well serve them raw.

Edit Like to dip my toast in the tinned tomatoes Can’t do that with those blooming grilled things

Oh I love a well grilled tomato. I judge a breakfast by how well cooked the tomato is, soft and gooey 10/10, hard and lukewarm FAIL.

Good morning. It looks miserable outside. I'm awake but hope to nap soon so have decamped to the spare room.

Mrs P is sleeping, it is her birthday. Hopefully I have been successful. Yesterday ensured No.2 son provided two bottles of her favourite prosecco. I have a bottle of Jo Malone cucumber and earl grey eau de cologne plus some handmade earrings. No.1 has invited us for lunch........I forgot to remind No.3 son. This may lead to my downfall.

Had a great ride yesterday. One of those rides when everything clicked for the three of us. All cooking with gas. We took in The Nab as it's known locally - real name Whalley Nab, 175 in top UK climbs, a brute - at one point three of us pushing up a 30% gradient three abreast, no one giving an inch, over 0.7 mile averaging 10.4% I got 07.30, the other two 07:26. I'm now third in age group on The Nab.

Unsure about the rest of the day but now 😴 beckons

Good morning folks, cool, bright, sunny and calm this morning, the family will be here later, eldest lad goes back home tonight, we went down to Stratford On Avon for lunch yesterday then called in to see my Sister In Law on the way back.

Happy Birthday to Mrs P, hope she has a great day.

Good morning fellow retirees,

Looks like the wind has finally dropped so I'll be off for an early trot before the Prom starts getting too busy. If I remember I'll turn on tracking on my Garmin watch and try to emulate @Mo1959 by running a route that results in a rude drawing 😁

Have a lovely peaceful day folks 🏃‍♂️🚶‍♀️🚴‍♀️🏊‍♂️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🍆

I am sure our Mo doesn't mean to do it. Its just on her mind as she runs and her sub conscious just sort of takes over

Happy birthday Mrs P.

Good morning crappy hampers. We had a lot of rain last night before I went to bed.

Dull at the moment, but who knows what the day will bring.

Stay safe
