    Two scheduled runs today will be put into one as we are off early doors to Liverpool for the night with the rug rats.

    I assume ale will be involved and buying trainers (somehow become a thing with the kids when we go shopping)

    ride ridden, though as i forgot to turn on the srm until cafe stop it seems i only rode half distance and almost entirely downhill

    dark start, with some raindrops at 7-ish, otherwise quite mild after the recent nippiness, sky brightened now

    Tree assassins surgeons not showing up today at clients' place, they're away on holiday and asked me to keep eye on things, so holding off the work work start until the slight mizzle does one. An easy pottering 1/2 day or so, no stress.

    No stress from that aspect, loads from dragging out property purchase, inability therefore to plan out logistics of move etc, wondering HTF one could actually do long distance runs in hire van if these XR-affiliated a-holes keep disrupting fuel supplies, wondering how with fuel difficulties and the M20 closure one can escape this wunnerful land for the planned Belgian weekender at end of month.... jeez.

    Morning. WFW. Heavy rain and soggy. CBA to ride so took car. Free parking until 16th so not too bad. CBA to do any work. 2 jobs in today so not too taxing. Lots of coffee this morning.

    Can you not run to a train station, get the train part way, then run the last bit?
    Wife can take the car and kids?

    eurostar, as long as you can carry it you're ok, full size suitcases, luggage racks in the carriages

    no air security liquid limits, though due to the idiot brexiters you now have to get it past uk customs

    Afternoon folks,
    Busy day in the orifice after a pleasant wobble in. Just had a supplier in to visit, unfortunately they were pushed for time so didn't buy lunch. Should I code everything away from them as punishment? Obviously ignoring the fact they are a good supplier and just acting out of spite. Booze cruise? Didn't think they were a thing any more with the post-Brexit limits we now have.

    Afternoon. First estate agent appointment done this morning, kids fed, car key man currently outside trying to make a key for my “new” motor. Still need to do some 11+ work with junior and do some school work for myself. Living the dream, folks.

    She is quite ovine. Especially when her coat is long.

    She looks more Poodle than Spaniel with that cut (Cockerpoo IIRC?)

    Clumber spaniel x miniature poodle, a bit bigger than most cockerpoos. About 11-12 kilos.

    I prefer her with a shorter coat like that, so when I take her to the groomer she gets a proper haircut!

    A Lamb cut?

    I do like a Lamb cut. Don't like coiffured pooches.

    We tend to cut ours fairly short - this is a few weeks post clipping.
