    Holding it down here. Must be soggy out because the parkrun organisers were telling people to wear trail shoes or don't bother. Might do some indoor cycling.

    Bikes need cleaning again.

    Need to sort a fancy dress costume for next week, an aero one.

    Slow start here - got up at 10 after a late episode of Dads taxi last night. Stressbag is out walking the dog and Stropteen is still in bed.

    Had some brekkie so will crack on with jobs shortly. Stropteens first driving lesson awaits later, so should be interesting. Will sit her in my car and show her what the pedals are for etc beforehand. Out for dinner with the cousin tonight.

    Usual Saturday. No Pineapples here, It's dull. May go on the rollers later.
    OH and toots will be away which leaves me in peace.

    I guess having a minimum (sustainable?) alcohol percentage in the blood stream helps in cold water. I wonder if Blue Nun is the preferred pre-kayaking tipple?

    Laters.

    Newly born pup is ready for our first visit this afternoon. Have to sober up really quickly, as the breeder called when Little Harv and I were on a lunchtime jolly. Might have a nap and chug some H2O. Oh, and have a shave.

    18 minutes ride out this morning, 28 minutes to ride back due to the wind.
    Front door dismantled, cleaned and greased so now it locks and unlocks without feeling like the handle's about to snap.

    You can always take it out for an outside ride in the wind and rain and mud if you need some excitement :twisted:

    as an aside, headlight brackets now glued on. lets see if it all works on Monday - 48 hours should be long enough for it all to bond.

    Morning Enjoy your days out SG and TLW. I'm about to get on a coach with OH to go to York for Christmas market and whatever else I'm ordered to attend. No driving so maybe alcohol involved. We will be the youngest by along way on the coach I suspect.

    Busy old day here in BBGeek acres. Shopping done, syphon in lav fixed (love clean water plumbing). Beer and pork scratchings consumed, pizza base made, bread also made (Mrs BBGeek makes great bread), stew made, and! Caught up with IACGMOOH! Loving Emily’s freckles, but Harry to win.
    Porter for stew gone, more ale to find.

    Off out this evening thankfully. Been planning a Christmas trip to Cambridge so that Stropteen and Stressbag can look around colleges there while I amuse the hound.

    Rafting was intense, thank god for all that rain recently, made it lots of fun and then we finished in the centre of Llangollen. Pub lunch and lots of pints as it was the current wife Xmas party, now off to the local

    Evening folks,
    Day of pottering with a bit of other shizzle. Plumber came over this morning, he’d fixed the boiler a few weeks ago and had to come back to finish servicing it. All done and I’m 400 notes lighter. Ouch!
    The sh!t that has been the latter half of 2018 continues. Found out a neighbour popped her clogs the other day. Another funeral to go to, same day as another one. I’m now going to 3 of the fokkers in a week! FFS! 2019 can only be better surely.
