If there are so many metal box encased muppets blocking The Bridge again this morning, then the Ferryman may well come in handy.
Work work, take the cutting gear again for a round 2 clear up post the windy weekend. Not supposed to rain today, that's 'nice'; wasn't supposed to yesterday either 'cept the mizzle waited until I was up that ladder.
Then I feel the call: first risotto for a long time, 'tis the season, plus a glass or 2.
The sun is just creeping over the trees and it looks like another reasonable day. That's 2 in a row, in Jockland, in November! Unprecedented.
I'm looking for an improvement on yesterdays communting time @seanoconn.
Where are these far away orifices TLW?
@Johngti. You must have woken up a happy man. Hungover at all or will killing your liver happen at the weekend? Or is it going to a be a sudden and extreme case of keep fit, going vegan/T Total?
Not many metal boxes on the road here 'Loon. We have a rush 15 mins spanning 8.50 to 9.05 am and similar in the afternoon around 3 and 5.
Next door asked what % of nastyness the asbestos sheets were I set fire to and threw in their garden, I thought I should just cover myself in case they complain.

I actually slept, back pain really not bad today as an added bonus. Definitely will not be going vegan, pretty much tea total already but I did have a glass of wine and celebratory curry last night!!
If it’s good enough for Wzard of Oz snow, it’s good enough for me. How bad can it be? 🤷♂️
Does anyone else have a clue what @seanoconn is on about here?
Glorious day, largely f^cked up by circumstances. Walked dog, and one place we passed had two yappy little mutts inside the fence get all wound up wanting to pick a fight. The two of them put together would be half the size and weight of ours. Tempted to let her off lead and shut the fluff balls up, permanently.
Drive into town, but convertible roof plays up. Clinic running very late for O/H appointment, with the extended wait meaning we missed lunch. Get home to find new people who own the block next door and are about to rebuild their burnt out house have started by cutting down two of the nicer big trees on the block. Phillistines. I hate them already.

fuckingvegan. ffs

The camera down the willy isn't anything like as bad as it sounds.
WFW but didn't ride, found another excuse not to. Did go to the gym though, so that counts. Reading for PHD most of the day. Semi-interesting stuff about feminism in Physical Education.
Crossing The River this morning did not require me to pay the Ferryman, didn't need to ask a price. A busy day: a morning of removing dead Elm trees (die back did for 'em) from a mixed species line of big hedging, then an afternoon of dealing with massive dropped limbs off live trees due to the storm on Sunday. That one tbc, more to do.
This morning talking to a detectorist, he let me take hold of an axe head he had found, dates back to Iron Age ~1300-1500BC. Looked pristine, apparently some were used in votive ways rather than as actual tools. Well impressed.

You’re starting to sound like me when it comes to riding a bike…that should scare you into action! Would you describe yourself as a feminist then?
Thistle said No mention of snow. I thought the white stuff was the least bad version, and it was the blue and brown you really had to worry about.
Yep your correct but all classed as dangerous. Some surprise stuff it was used on. Floor tiles, WW11 gas masks, military cap badges, artex. You name it they used it on.
I'm going out on the bike this weekend for the first time in a few weeks. Bloody well need it and want to get a bit of form back before I go for the full commute otherwise I might kill myself. Will give the North Downs ridge climb a shot.

Is it a reference to white asbestos and fake snow 'cos I don't remember snow in the Wizard of Oz?
