Morning, early ride for me aswell , we were told yesterday to not turn up for work until 10 o’clock, so that will do for me
Have a good weekend0 -
Good night in the local has meant a decent lie in, now about to take the hound out whilst I cycle and then it’s a longish run
Then pack the car up (light as I’ve still got my dads) and off down south to see an old uni pal0 -
ciao! sun shining so MF is just about to take the hound around the block then a bit of brekkie then off to the flicks then some lunch then keep the bambini outside in the sun as long as possible then maybe a bbq then chill with some vino rosso.Postby team47b » Sun Jun 28, 2015 11:53 am

Sunny and cool here in East London. Having a cup of tea in the garden. Off to visit an old friend of the in-laws in a bit, then back home. Must think of something to amuse mini. Maybe a bike ride. Enjoy your day tout le monde.0

Morning folks, slowish start after a very fitful sleep. Off to see the old dear shortly then take her to see the old man. Hopefully they’ve moved him up to the oncology ward now.
Lovely and sunny down here at the moment. Might have a beer later.0 -

You're all in the same area aren't you?! One weather girl will do ta.
More importantly, has 'the south' got enough stocks of beer for TLW's Alumni pairing?
Trying to summon energy for a pedal. I think the O'Bree pre ride prep of toast and jam is on the cards. Might need more coffee later.
Only 16 days till toots go back to school. Not that i'm counting.

Sungod is North London I believe, very different up there. Dragons etc..
If TLW runs out of booze, I've got some advocaat left over from Christmas.
We have a month left til ours go back. Though as we only have mini at the moment, life is quite peaceful.0 -
Bonnet full? Not sure if the car in question is very cool or comes with curling tongs as an optional extraTLW1 wrote:

Strangely enough it's pretty hot here as well. Had a good lie in then got a haircut and took the hound to his training class. Might start sorting stuff for the next holiday if I get bored."I spent most of my money on birds, booze and fast cars: the rest of it I just squandered." [George Best]0 -

North Devon, probably not far from where you've just been. We're staying a couple of miles outside (the probably aptly named) Bideford.hopkinb wrote:

Got any top tips apart from the honey farm and the camel toe restaurant? Looking a bit short on dog-friendly options apart from going to the beach."I spent most of my money on birds, booze and fast cars: the rest of it I just squandered." [George Best]0 -
Ah, yeah, we were in Croyde, across the estuary from Bideford. We went to Quince Honey Farm, that restaurant was in Croyde, and was called Blue Groove. We also went to Lynton Cliff railway. The beach we went to was Saunton sands, which was dog friendly.Stevo 666 wrote:

From previous trips, Clovelly is a very picturesque old fishing village, and a nice spot for a cream tea.
You might be a bit far for North Cornwall, depending on your appetite for driving down the A39. But, there's a good pub called the St Tudy inn, in St. Tudy. They allow dogs in part of the pub, we had a lovely lunch there a couple of years ago with the hound. Tintagel, Boscastle, Polzeath and Padstow all worth a nose around.0 -
Same area? SG is up norff, Hopper lives near me but is currently visiting in the East I believe and I’m South West. Completely different. :roll:Pinno wrote:

Just been to see the old man, cancer has grown and spread around his guts hence the sickness. He is now nil by mouth and all nutrients from a drip. Find out more on Monday but it is almost certainly inoperable as that was already the case a few months ago. Chemo doesn’t appear to be an option either so it’s all about palliative care now.
Balls!0 -

I remember Clovelly from when we were in North Devon yonks ago, but that's about it. We'll probably stick to Devon as we have friends in Cornwall we can stay with for another trip."I spent most of my money on birds, booze and fast cars: the rest of it I just squandered." [George Best]0 -

Very sad news, though at least it isn't a shock given what the docs told you a few months back. Hope they can keep him fairly comfortable."I spent most of my money on birds, booze and fast cars: the rest of it I just squandered." [George Best]0 -

Shyte, I missed that earlier V. That's tough news. I'm around if you need a new face. Take care.0

Thanks all, as Stevo said it’s not a surprise we’d just hoped the chemo would have worked a bit better. He’s feeling better than he has for a while as at least he’s getting something inside him even if it’s from a drip.
Back on that shitty bit of CS7 Monday evening then,0 -
