Well not on here. But good news for all you Gillian fans - new series of the XFiles is on the box tomorrow evening. Yay.

Onwards to mundane tasks.

    Slow start but finally got away from the sister in laws - now clearing the attic

    Pub later should improve the day

    You're not too young for Gillian though.

    Anyhow, there pics of both me and TLW on here somewhere, so it's your turn.

    A limited ride by duration on account we're visiting the in laws. Wind sun more wind, sun, wind, wind wind rain, sun wind wind

    Relaxing pm before drive back to Shropshire. Maybe a Skype call tonight , maybe not.

    Chilled either way and I'll look for a half decent film tonigh to finish off the weekend

    Classic car event this morning, met the owners of the last ever 2cv made in Portugal, lunch and then a stroll in the sunshine to the nature reserve to ogle some birds :D

    Pics of birds?

    Went to a car bash today. An HF Integrale, an E35 M3, XK120, Aston Martin DB4(?) and an Isetta was about the best on offer. Tin snails galore.

    2 forumites on two car bashes at the same time, odd really...

    It's sunny and 18/19c just now :D

    Something tells me you're keen to enter this comp Seano, so you go first with pics of Miss Wombleski. You must have plenty to choose from on your phone :P

    I was bashing a classic car today, does that count? Fighting the suspension on the Mini. Suspension won so I gave up and put it back together before it got dark. Test drive round the block showed the knocking had gone. Drove a bit further, still no knock. So maybe I did win, although I didn't actually fix the thing I set out to fix. Pumped up the tyres on the velocipede. Now chilling.

    Bastard weather has scuppered my pedalling tomorrow Again. Cheered myself up listening to a spot of Chubby Brown - his song about Jimmy Savile made me laugh :D

    At least you can look cool sitting in a e-type by the side of the road. What did you do after that, bail out and go home?
