Afternoon sailors on the Cruddy Marie Celeste (as it's been that bloody quiet on here this weekend). Bit of a boring weekend after Fridays big freebie piss up session. Stropteen is now in full on pre-exam panic revision mode and I'll be bloody glad when it's all over."I spent most of my money on birds, booze and fast cars: the rest of it I just squandered."

Evening, worms.
A good day has been had riding a bike (I know, I disappoint you all), watching people running in something called a ‘marathon’ and watching my local rugby team take a beating in the final of the Welsh Cup.
On the plus side I have had beer and a pie.
JBAjunior is also in pre-exam mode but is worryingly relaxed. A bit of panic would be most welcome right now.“Life has been unfaithful
And it all promised so so much”

Evening bandits of the aris variety,
Made the female child cry and it was all Stevo's fault. REad his post and mentioned stropteen was doing lots of revision as she was relaxing and watching something on her ipad. Caused a bit of a meltdown. Whoops.
Anyway, great day has been had, went out for a birthday lunch with my folks and my sister. Managed to have plenty to drink, then walked home to haveanother drink and eat my Mum's tiramisu. It's the reason i can never eat tiramisu in a restaurant.
Should ride in tomorrow but as it's winter again I probably won't bother.0 -

Dull Monday at work, as predicted I drove in. Good job as I just found a case of wine with my name on it.0 -

Evening old people,
Been busy trying to achieve the impossible for the bottom feeder, to that end I've been chained to the cement mixer making a rather large base for a raised planting thing for some of her plants and stuff!
Knackered now!
All this grief with dodgy neighbours can easily be sorted by getting a decent gaff in France in the middle of nowhere!

How do you solve the dodgy wife problem though?
Good pedal today and I'm now getting my 5 a day with some apple based drinks Strifey is trying to give me jobs but I'm doing my best to ignore her."I spent most of my money on birds, booze and fast cars: the rest of it I just squandered." [George Best]0 -
Frotage lovers.
Today I went to Portsmouth. A total of 6.5 hours driving for a pointless 3-hour meeting. What a load of old sh1te.
At least it was a day away from the joys of a noisy open plan office, I suppose.
bg13 - I trust you have left enough room under the concrete raised planting thing for a body?“Life has been unfaithful

All in hand my good man, she wants another concrete raised planting thingy next to it so I'll be making a deeper foundation on that one!Loving life in rural SW France

I'll pay you if you add some extra room for Mrs 666. I'll even pay transport costs.
Good day today, partly spent in some industry forum group getting free food and coffee. Followed by half a day of delegating. I'm on a roll here."I spent most of my money on birds, booze and fast cars: the rest of it I just squandered." [George Best]0 -
It would be great if I could offer that sort of service Stevo but once word gets out I'd need a hole the size of a South African diamond mine to fit all the 'significant others' into.
Evening receivers of swollen goods,
I had a morning of wandering aimlessly around with a strimmer attached to me trying to reduce the height of the grass, gave up eventually and went down the village hall to drink wine and eat cake with the locals.
More mowing tomorrow and some blockwork!

Been to the pub, now listening to Liverpool whilst enjoying ale - good times0

Thursday's my pub night so I'm off there now. Wine, women and song - well two out three isn't bad. Apart from that, busy day with FA to report. Roll on the weekend..."I spent most of my money on birds, booze and fast cars: the rest of it I just squandered." [George Best]0

Evening ditch diggers,
Pub night is a good thing, pub and curry last night was very good. Been paying for it today though.
Weather has improved at least and that’s with a bank holiday coming up. Just have to keep out the way so I don’t get given too many jobs.0 -
Evening crafty butchers,
Blockwork planty thing for her sorted and a start made on the frikkin grass that will not stop growing!
Foods inbound and i fancy a couple of beers will wash the bezzler down, then an early night as I'm a bit battered!

Hello, nuckfuggets.
Counting down the hours to the long weekend and a trip to West Wales for a family gathering. It's my BiL's 50th birthday so foods and boozes will feature prominently.
In the meantime procrastination is the order of the day.
Onwards! To slacking and idleness.“Life has been unfaithful
And it all promised so so much”

Chips were ropey, fish on the small side though tasted ok as I'd had a few by the time it got served. Nice cheeky waitress helped.
Morning purple helmets,
Lovely day in the SW of Francais so after a quick trip for a cuppa with chums it's manual labour in the garden, cannot wait.
Standard boozes and foods later

Well it's beer and curry in Beckenham town tonight with a mate - whooppee. Not done too much today apart from sundry jobs, letting workmen in and out and ogling the Waitrose Saturday girls."I spent most of my money on birds, booze and fast cars: the rest of it I just squandered." [George Best]0

Afternoon spunkbubbles,
Good day down here. Lazy start was followed by pedalling the pub hack to the Brooklands Museum to look at a load of rusty motors as it was AutoItalia day. Nice ride along the river, lots of people about due to the sunshine and some very fine views.0 -
Decent miles this morning (70) with the second half as interal training, so still knackered
Going to the pub helped0 -
Evening reacharounders,
Been strimming and mowing today, as it was a bit warm I've had an hour cooling down in the pool, just had boozes and food and now some more boozes.

Evening Lucky Pierre and companions,
Good day here, lazy morning was followed by being fed at the ‘rents. Failed to fix their dishwasher so came home and pottered about in the garage. Next is food and beer.0 -
Evening Mongs,
Boring evening as the women have Jeremy Clarkson's 'Who wants to be a millionaire' show on the box. They've also agreed to go test drive cars when Stropteens GCSEs are finished, so game on for the new motor (well Stropteen will be test passengering)."I spent most of my money on birds, booze and fast cars: the rest of it I just squandered."
