Have a good week, stay safe0 -
Morning. Earliest I've been out of bed for two months... need to feed the offspring, emails, then collect my boys new bike. Triban 3 junior for £28, bargain. Espresso first mind.0

Has it got round wheels and real brakes?!darkhairedlord said:Triban 3 junior for £28, bargain.
Cloudy and grey. Garden needs this wet stuff.
Schooling with Shorty. Should be fun. We've ripped through the home pack way ahead of time. I might go back to Daddy's tricky Maths, English, Geography and life stuff like bacteria, deep sea phosphorescent creatures etc.

Morning All,
Work efforts were distracted by the devil dogs, who tired themselves out after a few skirmishes over a bone.
Have now retired to the study before they get the strength back for round 2.

Morning, builders here doing builder things, namely being noisy so all seems good, expecting next door to be knocking shortly asking for the noise to stop, quick how you make a masonry cutter quiet is beyond me. Box the guy in a sound proofed enclosure?
Meh anyway mid typing she did come round and moan, told her it will be all day (lies) neighbour other side wants to see what its like when done as he fancies having it done too.
Anyway coffee to grind and grass to chop before the dog starts munching it again.0 -
Our dogs help keep the grass in check. Not sure why they like it so much as the lawn doubles up their toilet.step83 said:

Nice day. Went riding up the road to nearby beach.
Bit cool for a bask or swim, but still a lovely spot.Open One+ BMC TE29 Seven 622SL On One Scandal Cervelo RS0 -

Out of interest, how far are you from civilisation (shops, restaurants etc) ?"I spent most of my money on birds, booze and fast cars: the rest of it I just squandered." [George Best]0 -
Nearest decent grocery shop is ~ 25km, bigger one is 35. Very few restaurants out this way, one local club about 8km does good food, if a little lacking in ambience.. Couple of decent cafes and restaurants up near that first grocery place.Stevo_666 said:

Driving to centre of city (Hobart) is about 45 km. Although, I can see it from my living room windows.

Gotcha - quite secluded then. The mention of Hobart rings a bell - do you still have Radio 780?Wheelspinner said:

That station still exists I think, doubt they do the same jingoistic jingle however!
It’s a nice little village here, mostly pretty quiet. It’s at the very end of a peninsula, so no through traffic which helps, just weekend visitors mainly. Probably 1/3 of the houses/shacks are empty a lot of the time, short term rentals or just weekenders for rich folk.
This place is just back a couple miles along the road, owned I believe by a surgeon, has someone do maintenance, but in 2+ years only seen it actually lived in for a couple weekends at most. Such a waste.
That pic in mid summer, very dry. The whole place is lush green right now.Open One+ BMC TE29 Seven 622SL On One Scandal Cervelo RS0 -
Looks very nice and 'get away from it all'.
I mention Radio 780 because in the 90's it used to get played on Capital Radio (one of the big London radio stations): there was a DJ called Chris Tarrant who played the cheesiest and crappiest jingles from provincial radio stations round the world."I spent most of my money on birds, booze and fast cars: the rest of it I just squandered."

summoned energy for a bask while wfh-ing
warming up at least for a few daysmy bike - faster than god's and twice as shiny0 -
Aye, set fair until Thursday. I've been opening up the back of the house (sw facing) and doing the inside outside thing in the evening.
A short ride after work, enlivened by some geriatric waste of fcuking oxygen trying to right hook me as I was barrelling along at 40 kph (tailwind). Slidey fishtail stop next to his ancient sh1t car. Get your fcuking eyes tested. I swear there was drool out of one corner of his mouth. No reaction. Oh well, I'm alive.
Has anyone seen my mini pump? It's disappeared. I'm on borrowed time before I get a p word.0 -
Yep, round wheels, real brakes plus the bar top cx style ones.pinno said:
