Good morning. It's been blowing a gale all night which woke me several times. It's dark, still windy with the Met Office showing 30mph winds all day, the BBC say 9!!!!

Decisions. Decisions. Just messaged the buddy I'm due to ride with.

Beyond that? Well the bike and car need cleaning. The cycle club website needs updating. I also need to visit my LBS to talk new bike!!😄

Mini D #1 ismin Hospital. Shes suffered kidney problems since her teens and theres been a flare up. If they ever said shed3 needed a transplant Id donate one of mine.

Anyway, my Mum is going over to pick up her car and drop its to me until shes out. Its a Porker Cayenne Turbo, so between the 3 cars therell be about 7 tonnes of luxury SUV parked on the driveway at Drago towers.

Hope all goes well Drago. Kids/grandkids ........you never stop worrying over them.

@12boy all the best to you and your family.
We found there is a lot of truth in the old saying that, with grandchildren you get all the best bits but can hand them back for the worst bits..
One thing though...........if he is only a couple of days old but already planning a video/zoom virtual meeting he is one clever boy.

Well done, my granddaughter calls me Pops.

My first grandson, when very young, struggled to say the 'gr' sound and it came out as 'gw' which was cute but ended with me being called Gwandrad.
The 2nd one copied that and now, 24 years later I still sign my texts/whatsapps to them as Gwandrad.

Both my grandsons call me Grampa but everybody else even the neighbour's 5 and 6 year olds use my first name. But then the grandsons have a financial incentive to be polite to the old git. Birthdays and Christmas I am quite generous.

I will remember that Grampa.
I will pm you my address
