    Now the bike race is over, time to prepare for the marathon - may have missed the main block of training as it’s less than 3 weeks away

    Then it’s off to Bala with some friends for swimming and paddling if I can be bothered to fit the roof rack

    Morning
    Warm but dull. I think it might be a bike ride later once I’ve got my act together.

    Big day today. I expect everyone on here to do their bit to commemorate the occasion.
    Today is apparently the ..er, climax of the month of May's celebrations. :wink:

    Whatever happened to Seanoconn?

    Morning

    Awake at TLW o clock due to the sun and next door's cat howling to be let in. Neighbours are deaf so it didn't work.

    Waited until 7 before going out for a ride up some hills above the mist. Muppets out on the roads even at that hour on a BH weekend.

    Loads of tents in Llangollen. Bet they enjoyed the thunderstorms all day yesterday :mrgreen:

    Got a car boot full of bark for the garden to spread today after cutting back the jungle that's appeared in the last 2 weeks.

    early start, went up via hampstead, pre-opening espresso from the nice lady at caffe nero, and did hilly highgate a few times

    flawlessly executed brekkie plan - outside table at colbert for myself and shiny bike, had a citron pressé, et steak haché avec un oeuf de canard frit, plus toast, read new york times, watched totty, all in all a great way to start the day, surprised none of you lot showed up

    Morning folks,
    Feeling significantly better than I was at this time yesterday, can’t imagine why. Got a few bits to do and then off to the ‘rents for a late lunch. Might go to the pub later.
    Sounds like a good start SG, might join you one day.

    Totty doesn't do mountains at 7:30am, not even getting out of tents as I go past.
    There was 1 leather clad biker admiring the view and 3 lycra clad blokes riding up the Horseshoe. Not my type really.

    I think Strifey must have realised this, which is why she prefers to do the dog walking :)

    Spent part of the morning in the garden sorting the fish pond and patio. Got a two day trip to hurdy-burdy land to meet the clog-wearing minions this week, so I thought I'd get my stuff ready for that rather than rush around tomorrow evening. Steak Haché kind of appeals but I only ever seem to eat the stuff on skiing holidays. But I did get my free coffee and some tandoori chicken wings from Waitrose.

    MF was at the table next to you. He said hello and then you ignored him.

    He felt sad.

    I thought it was a bit quiet in Cake Stop, a lot of them must be busy :)

    of course, you need to keep aware what's going on

    TLW, you should be OK paddling in Bala, the MIL says the thunder and rain is now getting boring. Went to pub beer festival yesterday, so slow day with some beer to recuperate. Redders down here in Hampshire, watched my bell-end neighbours put up a new tent in the field. The ensuing domestic was fun, and predictable. Now to find something for tea. Chicken curry might do it with some Campari and tonic.
