Grim immigration queues. It's hot.

    Great choice.

    On the train into town while the rest of the household have a lie in. Stropteen has now finished school for the summer so roll on when she start her holiday jobs. In other news it's the end of the week so I may sneak a beer in after work.

    Morning folks,
    In a car on a train, bloody cyclists pushing in front even in a queue for customs. No films on here. Need to get through French France and to civilisation quick.
    Advice about decals? Better go and investigate.

    Morning, a bit hungover again. No mountain biking later which is a shame. A weekend of drinking, bikes and hiking in the lakes should perk me up a bit.

    Also, the unofficial trails at Ae turn extremely slippy when the inch of dust on top gets wet.

    Ah good old Eurotunnel, the most relaxing 35 minutes of a 20 hour + drive.

    Hang on... (*counts*) 25 days until I next board a plane :P

    nah - diplomatic entry is the way forward. you can dress as scruffy as and laugh as the people who think they are posh queue up for hours.

    anyhow, good morning all. slightly overcast here but have been to the gym, roused bambina and shall shortly be heading down to Edwyn's French Gateau Chapeau for crepes pour petit dejeuner. then chillin' with bambina before picking up bambina from day out with his muckers.

    ciao

    it got kicked off because someone complained that it allowed arguments to be laughed at and therefore not taken seriously or some such nonsense.

    bit like communtergate.

    are you thinking of the stickers thread?

    I love it when they start chucking their handbags around in po face.

    Bloody raining. Went in Porker#2 to cafe in the sticks as toots and OH are away away (for the day). It was a sort of solo lunatic or should that be lunatic solo... I should be prepping for hols but I have a serious dose of cba.
    Going to check for oil leaks after O ring replacement, paint rusty heat shield...

    Taken down by a "philly cheese steak" as big as my head and a bucket of lemonade.

    Now lurking at the pool and trying not to be rumbled looking at women.
