    Where tf this body is is lying in bed tapping on a screen and contemplating a 2nd 100% pure Colombian.

    Today I will mowstly be sorting out stuff before loading a hire car in t'morning for a scurry northwards for to collect keys etc etc. And start putting together a real version of The Plan.

    Westvlaanderen weekender was as excellent as ever, good company, beers, food, even weather. Bar the continually slipping seatpost on the hire bike. One way droppers ain't a fun idea.

    Sunny in Copenhagen. Out on the boat again. Looking at bigger boats. Flight back this afternoon. After some smørrebrød for lunch.

    Up now having brekkie then out for some fresh air with the hounds. Later will be sorting out the spare room in case this Ukrainian hosting thing starts moving.

    Morning all. cba to crawl out of bed till now. Slow and steady day today. Maybe take the mutt for a long walk in the woods later. Yesterday's lumpy ride out still resonating on various parts of the body for some reason. Nice boat Beany.
    Too many bikes according to Mrs O.

    4.5 hours into Sunday 2.0 and nothing has been achieved yet.

    Cool and cloudy so not much motivation to do anything.

    Morning folks,
    Slow start is being enjoyed, all Mondays should be like this. After some pottering going out for lunch with the EPO.

    This is very true.

    You must have visited the Vasa museum when you were there. Amazing.

  • pinnopinno Posts: 48,534
    I had visited the Vasa museum and the seemingly out of place Viking house standing alone in the middle of a small park but I loved the tall ships docked in Gamla stan.
    Spent a lot of time in Gamla stan.

    I might even get stuck in a bear flap.

    That tall ship was Polish. Maybe Mrs Seano owns it.

    You could get a lot of hits on YouTube if this is anything to go by.

    I did walk into a couple of lamp posts o:) Rubbernecking in Stockholm is a surprisingly dangerous passtime.

    Afternoon. Really want to wash my hair but scabby won’t allow it just yet. Finished the fence, been to the shop. Vet visit in 45 minutes, poor old doggo is really not well. She feels like she’s lost loads of weight, prominent spine, can feel her ribs, absolutely no interest in food of any sort. Really dreading this visit. Boys and wife are sitting on the lawn with her now, making a fuss. Just in case. She was chasing foxes out of the garden a few weeks ago. Blimey.

    @johngti those trips are dreadful. Lost our old girl in January like that, and still miss her every day.

    Hope for the best, prepare for the worst. Fingers crossed for you and the Lab.

    Terrible news. We had to have Poppy the cat put down at Christmas, however we now have to baby sit these two for the next two years while daughter and family are swanning off.
