    Afternoon c0ckfags,

    Just remember Stevo, these aircraft are built and maintained by the lowest bidder!

    Been out golfing this morning, course was nothing to write home about but i was obviously awesome! Got home to some painting, i will wait for it to dry and will then paint it again! Then curry for tea. Then watch the nine o clock news to hear which airport Stevo's holiday jet diverted to as the inflight grog turns him into a violent maniac!

    Toodles.
    Quite a few of the shell suited underclass were on the sauce on that flight - was a bit like that airplane scene from 'World War Z' :)

    Now lounging by the pool trying out the local plonk.

    Evening sausage jockeys,

    Good to hear Butlins serves plonk Stevo!

    Staircase is installed, just some minor fettling tomorrow and then it's back to sorting out a fark ton of plasterboard.

    Pals arriving Wednesday so there'll be some boozing.

    What-ho, fillies.

    Back to work today after two weeks working at home with my gammy knee. I didn't like it and will have to consider more home working. Open plan offices are the devil's work. Too noisy, too smelly, too public and generally a bit bah.

    I now have full movement back in my knee but it is still sore. Had an MRI scan so off to see the Consultant again on Wednesday to find out if it showed anything.

    Wish I was abroad supping boozes in the sunshine.

    Just finished feeding our faces at an El cheapo taverna in the next village. Now suffering mild meat sweats so getting rid of those and compensating for me having to drive there with a massive G&T at the hotel outdoor bar.

    Evening, whackers of the tally.

    DIY tasks today messing around with 240V wiring, with a side of bike parts ordering. Relentless wind and rain has finally eased up, so tomorrow will be back to garden clean-up I presume. :roll:

    Afternoon monkey spankers,
    Waiting for a hire car, very dull. Ours is being fixed so I have to drive a shitbox Vauxhall for a while.
    Other than that the usual work, beer, slacking merry go round. Female child is at the Reading festival, won’t let her back in the house until I’ve hosed her down.

    Evening wage slaves,

    Spent a day getting dragged round the local town in Cretin land while Stressbag and Stropteen p1ssed my money away. Now compensating with extra drink.

    That's what I used :)

    Tough day by the pool today, especially as I'm a Sun dodger rather than a soap dodger. Just mulling over where to stuff our faces tonight...

    Half a day as grease monkey dismantling an old bike to fix up for a friend. Apparently, it was "going ok" they thought, just needed a quick tune up. Yah, sure. Cranks almost seized, tyres perished, brakes crumbly, chain jammed in a rear mech full of dried crud. :roll: Removed rear wheel axle and balls go everywhere because no grease to hold them in place.

    Must ride a bike again soon instead of just fixing the damned things.

    DIY list of other jobs on hold till backlog cleared in shed.

    Back at work and still tired from getting back home at stupid o'clock yesterday morning. Ho hum. I shall just have to delegate more. Ironically it's hotter here than it was in Crete.

    Evening Maddies 'Uncles',

    Market was a bit of a wash out due to a massive thunder storm which aint all bad as it cut that part of the day short! Then on to my favourite cognac house, always good to visit and have a taste!

    Airport again tomorrow afternoon..........boo!

    Morning delinquents,

    Took friends back to the airport yesterday then took the scenic route home. Just heard this morning that the male we took back to the airport is in hospital with an asyet unknown issue! I did tell them i was 'bar fit' when they got here!

    Today is starting on the upstairs of the new gite, hopefully a months effort and I'm free! Free i tell you!

    Bet he needs a liver transplant.

    At work again, seems almost normal now after the holiday. At least it's Thursday and I'm out for some wine, women and song this evening. Or something like that.

    Afternoon five finger shufflers,
    I rode my MTB this week, although the terrain didn’t exactly warrant it. But it was a lot more comfy for my lardy aris’ on the tow path.
    Busy week felt like more than 4 days. Jobs to do, beer shortly. Riding the ghey bike tomorrow.
