    Morning sleepy heads.
    Work the easy way in car.
    Look busy then pick OH up.
    Sadly weekly shop.
    Beer and relax.
    Too many bikes according to Mrs O.

    Bit misty here as I stare out the kitchen window at Casa Stevo,
    Nt see the North Downs ridge at all . Will transfer down the Twatcave once I've has my 3 Weetabix.

    In the meantime I must remember not to upset MF by reminding him that Italy got knocked out of the World Cup by the mighty North Macedonia o:)

    No please don’t. Wouldn’t it be awful to repeatedly remind our Italian Stallion ( and V68 of course) that Italy were crushed by minnows North Macedonia.

    Missed a 2nd WC in succession.

    Scotland might play Ukraine.
    I think most people will be supporting Ukraine.

    If I do, I'll write out 100 times : 'I promise not to upset MF by reminding him that Italy got smashed by North Macedonia and are out of the World Cup'

    Boris was trolling Wee Jimmy Krankie by suggesting that Ukraine should get a bye to the World Cup, which meant Scotland losing by default. Can't see the point really, just let Scotland play - we know they'll lose anyway.

    and then Ukraine beat England while de pffeffel watches a game he doesn't understand in a shirt still creased from coming straight out of the packet because he's a belter.

    difficult to write when someone is punching you on the nose.

    From HD Enterprises I can see the roofing teams JCB Loadall and the back of a terraced row.
    Short ride planned for this afternoon in the sun followed by a bit of house work.

    Afternoon folks, in a departure lounge waiting to go to Verona. Unfortunately Sleazy Jet doesn't do SG style. Couldn't give a monkeys about the gayball, was impressed with beating the taffs in the rugby though.
    No riding for the next few days, lots of eating though.
    Can one of the MFs film whichever of the other MFs punches Stevo on the nose? Would a third MF then administer Hello Kitty?

    Warm day in the woods. Loads and loads of old plastic tree guards taken off, and packed for reprocessing by Solway Recycling. Solway? Recycling? 🤔 Wonder if there's someone on here who knows that sort of stuff.

    At last there is a glimmer of progress on the house purchase. Seller's solicitor finally 'able' to submit paperwork. Got a phone chat with seller soon, discuss Stuff. 🤞the wheels do indeed roll.

    Yes, one of the MFs: set them on fire and lob over the neighbour's fence.

    Feeling a lot less stressed after an hour plus phone chat with seller of my gimme gimme property, post a long period of inactivity on the legals side. Comes over as sound, ok guy. This is going to go through. Subject of course... Nah, it's going to go. Isn't it? Tick, tick... Will be ramping up the logistics planning. 👍

    Beer time.

    you can't set fire to MFs and lob them over fences - they smell funny if anything.

    Hmm... I wonder who?

    Yep - they got big in the last 10 years on the back of recycling low grade polythene for silage bailing.
    I suggested high grade polythene because it's free* to recycle, although a little bit more expensive to purchase.
    However, it's semi transparent and you loose the outer 10" of silage to light decomposition.
    I'm pretty sure plastics manufacturers could make up a compatible pigment that would prevent this.

    *Still works out cheaper because of it's value.
