Good morning from a sunny Dorset. Vernal equinox and 16 degrees today ☀️
Train to London today, overnight stay and visit family before heading up to Saltaire tomorrow. Do I take my big jacket or not🤔

It's not that cold up here.

Morning all. New to forum.
As this is retirement thread I'll just say it's rather nice to have taken early retirement so able to make most of glorious days like today.

Bonjour. I read yesterday that the TdF will start in the UK in 2027 in Edinburgh for 3 days. The third day will finish in Cardiff so I am hoping to be there as our grand daughter lives in Cardiff and might be able to put us up for a couple of nights. Just waiting for the exact date now.

Bass practiced. House tidied. A few jobs done on the Volvo in readiness for its forthcoming MOT. Lunch consumed.

Setting the ignition timing on the engine I've just rebuilt.
I do enjoy jobs like these.
