Morning.

Summer is officially on its way after today, time to dust the good bike down again :lol:

Usual helping at Sunday School shenanigans this morning with the possibility that I'll have to be one of the wise men in their nativity play if not enough littlies pitch.......first time for everything I know.....just thought I'd get the wise man gag in before any of you feckers do :lol:

After that I'm off to the outlaws for a Christmas meal, like matthew h we're properly dysfunctional too :D

    Arran, surely down your way you'd be hard pressed to find a virgin, never mind three wise men.

    Mornin all, last nights curry hot me up a bit earlier than planned :P so am making myself useful sending email Xmas card to the people we couldn't be bothered sending real cards to. Later will be taking stropteen to hoss riding and watching the footy. The North East derby and the second best team in London vs the second best team in Liverpool should both be quite entertaining :)

    That's quite witty for a supporter of the second best team in Manchester :wink:

    Yep, don't knock Tranmere, my old man's father used to manage them.

    spent my youth before I had an LFC ticket in the Tranmere Kop, £28 quid for a season ticket. Let us avoid the current price of my LFC ticket which thankfully is sold on these days

    Long before I was even born but an interesting bit of family football history nonetheless.

    My wife's family are so ferkin nuts it's unbelievable- therefore I left at 8.30 this morning for a ride with the lads. Used piñata favourite bike for the first time / loved it, though the deep rim wheels were a bit dodgy in the 30mph winds (esp at 49mph)

    Then meet the the people I love plus the in laws for a nice merl out

    Now, I'm ferkin knackered

    Well, I made it through today without swinging for the bro in law. Mainly becasue I barely spoke to him. Went to see my sister and her lot down in Brighton, had lunch at theirs then took the kids to the pier for a bit. Most of the rides were shut so it wasn't worth hanging around for long so we went for a coffee then made good our escape. Carelessly we appear to have left our larger child down there.

    Yes, that's why we left the boy down there. He and his cousin actually got to take part in the parade, not too sure how. Probably best if we don't ask. Daughter wasn't feeling particularly well, recovering from some bug, so we took her home.
