I doubt if they gave a sh1t. You need to get off your bike and start a proper argument next time. Get some footage for us.

Their expressions said otherwise Think they needed a sense of humour implant, unsurprisingly.

Working in London today , I had opportunity to converse with a couple of the cheerless twats, particularly about the ones who glued themselves to the DLR
They said it was important to make a statement about transport
“How did you get here this week?”
Silence
“Yeah, thought so!”
To my departing van..
“C*NT!”

I hope you also gave them some wise but forthright advice about getting a haircut and obtaining gainful employment.

I have sold my RDSB's in support. As Steve will know RDSB's are better than RDSA's.

Back into cash this last week anyway. Loadsa money..

Just about the right time -- "Sell in May and stay away " seems to get earlier every year. See you on St Legers day. ( which seems, for me anyway, to be getting earlier too -- I'm usually in at the end of August again. )

Diane Abbott getting caught out having a daytime drink on the train. Might go some way to explaining those embarrassing episodes where she "mis spoke" and blamed it on her blood sugar. Hic!

The new Fosters advert with the Aussie guy sandpapering a cricket ball, made me laugh!

It probably also explains how she figured she could get an extra 10,000 police at a cost of £300,000 a year When you've had enough mojitos you probably think you can see a magic money tree.

Drinking wine in a tiny village just outside Lyon is cheering me up at the moment.

I’m sure it is and I’m sure that if there are any problems at all the purchaser will have no qualms in contacting the vendor so they can drink beer and get it sorted just as any vendor should do.

This conversation cheers me up. Maybe the internet can be a nice place after all.

MF has can offer this service since they have plenty of help.

Spending 2 weeks on the west coast of Scotland, on only one day of which it rained.
Riding around empty roads looking at beautiful scenery, seals basking on the rocks, deer, squirrels (proper red ones of course).
Drivers who stop at passing places 200m up the road to let you past, even if it means feeling obliged to sprint uphill so as not to keep them waiting.
Eating and drinking as much as I feel like and still coming home lighter and fitter than I left.
Sitting on the deck with a beer watching spectacular sunsets over spectacular views that mass tourism simply hasn't discovered.

For christsakes don’t tell anyone on the Internet or a newspaper will mention it in a travel special and ruin it for ever more.
Except the weather will probably be shite when they go so everything will be alright.
Are you sure it only rained for one day? Seems improbable.

Let's all go there. Then Bompo can put it in the other thread.

a very respected sailing coach telling you you are putting your daughter in the wrong class at the Nationals and that she should be racing at a far higher level as she rocks, innit.

Yes, I can vouch for his statement.
However, had he come slightly further south but still on the west coast of Scotland, he may have had no rain at all.
To preserve the authenticity of the fact, I could have watered him with the garden hose.

.. why thanks for the offer. But I'm back home now in grey, cold Dundee, and (note the time of this post) taking my first break (see Pomodoro) from all the work I should probably have done while I was off sunning myself in the west. Joy.

I'm off to ride my bike at 25 minute intervals.
Perhaps I should strap a fold up chair to my back.

He's lying. It rains every day and the midges eat tourists for breakfast, dinner and tea. The only antidote is to smear yourself with treacle. It doesn't keep them off but at least they get stuck to it.

Well that's one way to get your average ( rolling ) speed up.

Reinstalling my browser. Amazing how much quicker things work afterwards. I guess the gremlins were getting a toe hold.

Cheered up by the excellent bank holiday (+1), and going back tomorrow knowing that I have about 68 working days left, ever.

My ability to smile through the BS is increasing each passing day

Lucky you. Are you leaving the world of work altogether or just your current profession?

Early retirement I guess. I guess also that he's been given a golden handshake due to an inability to grasp the issues, all the inane grinning and a lack of output
