Would you believe it's all ready 22c here in boffin-land?

Well I thought you'd like to know that mrs itboffin has the day off so we're getting the BBQ out, having a few friends and family over for a lunch time sunshine BBQ party. Think i'll just pop out for a quick spin before peeps start arriving.

Pimms anyone ..?

    I'll be doing a coast to coast in the sunshine later, not quite across the country but freewheeling to the coast, a mere 12 miles away.
    I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.

    Wondered how long before you dragged your sorry non-sc stats rear out of bed, sobered up from yesterdays alcohol intake and started goading me.

    If you set off now - you may be able to get to RP in time for a lap and a pint after. Few more miles to move you up from 98th?

    I'd love to have been out on my bike in this glorious weather. Unfortunately I'm looking after the dog so I've had to put up with leisurely walks around the Heath and liquid refreshment whenever the opportunity has presented itself. The opportunity has been presented quite frequently, and I feel refreshed to the point of needing an afternoon snooze.

    Yo JZed i forgot to mention when i was out on Sat I spotted some hill billy types prepping their BBQ, perhaps they know something us townies dont or perhaps they're just waiting for you city folk to head to the countryside for some "fun in the wood" southern comfort style :-)

    I think its a sign Boffin - you know - you should eat a few burgers sink a few beers. It will help with winning the lantern rouge :wink:

    P.s my nutritionalist says I can have beer but no burgers. My coach say I should eat burgers for protein but not beers due to carbs.
