It’s Saturday: Dip me in cream and throw me in a barrel of cats

Visitors left. Yay! Cold windy morning but turned into a fine afternoon. Have demolished the old roof bit, may ride a bike later.

Can’t beat that ‘visitors have left’ feeling!

Needed more sleep than that, but what can you do? Walk hounds, hilly run with a pal then decorating - even though the eldest rugrat is helping (obviously wants cash for it) and enjoying that time together, god I had painting.

Later is empty the fridge of cider ready for the next Weston ciders delivery

Tigger walked, early ride, bit of gardening, cycling on tv, relax
Have a good weekend

The adults are lovely people, but their child isn’t.

The serenity that descended on our place as they drove out the gate was delightful.

A large animal possibly a bear shat in my head while I was sleeping. Morning fry up, little bit of work, amuse kids, chores etc. After fry up I shall be starving myself to make the weigh in before the big Pinno fight later. When I say big I mean little, not sure how I’m suppose to shed 30kg to even the odds but we’ll see.

Brilliant WS! 👍 and I can use the dismembered leg as a weapon retaining my weight advantage! 😃 You’re hired WS. See you round the back of greggs at 8pm. Whatever happens, even if the fight takes a turn for the worst and Pinno resorts to biting my ankles, Do not throw in the towel!

Because as the Italians say

Ankle, surely?

Bit grey here and chilly. Will go for a pre fight ride. If I can shed 5 kg's, Seano will have to chop 1 arm and 1 leg off. That'll balance things up.

As the Kenyan's say

And here was me thinking phase 3 of the Conifer Wars is a big fight. Pales into etc etc

Time to tool up and get round there.

No wuckers. Will bring the blowpipe and curare darts. Oh, and a high pressure water cleaner, just in case.

cold, just cold

nippy ride, coffee, burst water mains, closed roads, many temporary traffic lights, later create curry as an act of applied quantum electrodynamics, bubbly

Ha. We live in a high pressure water cleaner - it's called the West coast of Jockland.
MD 20/20 and Concorde in large quantities will render me immune to weak forrin poison rubbish.
I'll prep with the tried and trusted Scientific pre fight meal of deep fried battered Mars bars and Irn bru.

Arghhh, mushrooms. I f#cking hate mushrooms. The root of all evil.

Poached eggs this morning, midwife is visiting today to check up on us as baby won't feed and hasn't had a poo for 3 days.
Hopefully our for a stroll after that.

Run has been run, loverly out there

Morning folks,
Traditional slow start is being enjoyed. Might do something today, but then again...

Dunno about a run, but a walk has been walked. Only managed some yoghurt before heading out so quite peckish now. Stressbag is going out for an osteo appointment in a bit so might get a bit of peace with the hounds.

Sadly admin beckons again and will need to fiddle around and remove some links from a watch bracelet so I can wear the bloody thing. At least there's no car cleaning involved as the stealer did a good job on the Panzer inside and out this week and it needed a good once over. Might have make something up to get it in there again while the warranty's still going

I honestly don’t know why all those kids were chasing me earlier.

B0llox. I'm in training too.

orraloon

1 x 6 hour round of The Conifer Wars. I'm winning. I am too. 1 more sesh tomorrow should give The Victory. Parades and medals to follow. Or maybe just multiple tip runs.

1st beer, a hefeweiss, just poured. Time to catch up on the White Roads. No spoilers perlease.

Stevo_666

Managed to sort the watch bracelet out after running it under hot water for a bit. They'd put a bit of loctite on the connecting pins which didn't help, nor did my using the wrong size screwdriver as these things are so bloody small its hard to see what the exact right size is - 0.8m or 1.0m FFS. Anyhow, one titanium knuckle duster now ready for action when I go out to collect the take away in case anyone else tries to mug me.

Sorry gents, going to have to cry off tonight, my armchair has separation anxiety and I don’t want to leave him on his own, he’s been very clingy lately. Plus it’s dark, chilly and at least a 5min hike to greggs from here. I hope you guys didn’t have to far to travel.

Anyway, let that be a lesson to you Pinno. Mess with the bull you get the horns!

Evening folks,
Eddie the Eagle is on the tellybox, that was a strange time. As the big fight is off I thought I'd watch another great British athlete.
Went for a walk in the Isabella plantation with the trouble earlier then pottered in the garage. Made a thread chasing tool out of an old bottom bracket and cleaned up the threads in the BB shell for the bamboo bike. Worked a treat so happy with that. Celebratory beer now.
