We generally spend around £600 a month in local pubs. That's not excessive.......is it?

It's all relative.
If you have got the money and enjoy eating out then go for it and enjoy.

I apologize your Highness, geography was never my strong point.

On the subject of buses, my sister who lives in Leicestershire, made an odd comment. Broadly, that in their area people choose not to use buses because they don’t want to mix with the type of people who they might find on one ! I was wondering, is this a thing across other parts of the country too ? I find it hard to comprehend, it’s certainly not my experience.

Enjoyed the cycling again

Quite breezy here. It’s keeping the house nice and cool.

Found a similar attitude on trains a few years ago. Never come across it on the buses.

An Earl would be "my Lord".

Got out for a ride, just under 20 miles but boy, was it windy!

At least the wind was in my face outbound and I got boost assist on the way back.

Had my blood pressure done this pm and apparently it is absolutely spot-on. One less health thing to worry about.

I had a similar holiday park on my manor when I was a beat bobby. I spent far to long on it dealing with sheet to ever want to go to one myself!

Yes - those people exist

I heard someone say once that the aim of all decent people is to never be seen on a bus after the age of 30
bet he also looks down on people who ride bikes

there are some arrogant gits in the world - best thing about them making comments like this is that you can spot them easily and avoid them and ignore anything else they say now

You can always tell who the upholsterer is in any bus workshop, he is the one covered in flea bites, and yes that is very true.

Just got back from playing with a few dents, it made me feel a lot better and having a bad hour this morning after my mate went home. Off for a gym session then a long swim straight after it, that will take care of the evening.

I seem to have lost the oil for the kitchen counter tops. I've looked everywhere. I'll give it an hour then go and have another look. I'm bound to find it straight away.

Maybe Mr WD has borrowed it.
