Wfh. Peleton pedal. Mini's school play later.0

Mebeez I'll do a half an hour at lunchtime on the actual bike on the nearby bumps instead, but I don't think I'm up to it yet. Might be a bit warm.0

Nice walk with hounds followed by a recovery run.
Work stuff followed by the gym with the family0 -
Another escape run rehearsal today. Hire car fetched (last time), get it loaded with stuff random, no empty capacity permitted, and 🤞 hope the M6 behaves ok.
Right, 100% pure Colombian #2 and get on with it.0 -
Good luck with the escape Loon.
In office again for a change of scenery. Having fun with amateur tax experts (where's the rolleyes emoticon gone?)

cafe iii pleasant table in the sun, cloud mostly gone, will be good for a bask if it stays clear
my bike - faster than god's and twice as shiny0 -
Wet, mild and wet.
After assuring Beans that no monster would come into the garden... one came into the garden. She is 704338.
...and she came in again not 10 minutes later after I commandeered a passer by to open the gate as initially, I couldn't reach farmer bloke. So it was bedlam last night.
Farmer (accompanied by his very young and exotic Brazilian gf) dropped off grass seed and soil so I can fill the holes.
Beans spent this entire period under a bed.
Shorty was in a state of panic and fear whilst Tricky stood large and bold in the middle of the road to direct the offending creature through the gate.seanoconn - gruagach craic!0 -

FIngers crossed Oxo.oxoman said:Morning All not from work today. OH decided to pass out whilst I was still snoring. Rapid wake up for rest of the family. 3,9s rang and dragged her off with me following. Sadly kicked out after 5 mins. She's currently giving me greif via phone whilst they do some tests. Hopefully something and nothing and they'll kick her out soon.

Hope everything is OK Oxo.
Morning. In class, not teaching, decent student taking the group which is nice. She’s asked to do some marking too; I’d be a fool to say no.
Currently seriously thinking about getting a new dog. Smaller boy dog this time around since it wouldn’t be right to have another good girl yet. Hopefully we’ll go and have a look at some over the next day or so. Otherwise, usual stuff at work. Slowly getting over having to sit through Lloyd-Webber on Saturday. The pain is real…

Oxo - good luck with the recovery. I suppose the fact that she's on the phone giving you grief is a good sign in this case...

Afternoon folks,
Busy day of wfw and dealing with the usual nonsense. Wobbled in slowly on the pub hack, it was quite warm though. When i saw TLW's tear emoji I thought that was in reference to Mr GTi having to up up with Lloyd-Weber for a moment. Glad it doesn't look like anything serious for the trouble Oxo, bit of a worry though.
Did B³ manage the Womblebergs? Some of them are quite steep, thankfully not very long. The old dear's new place has quite a nice view out the front from upstairs, out the back it's all trees going up the hill, so a little gloomy.0 -
No - our problem is that we also have two cats and finding a rescue that can live with them is nigh on impossible. So it needs to be a puppy so that it can properly learn its place in the hierarchyStevo_666 said:Oxo - good luck with the recovery.

You two should come over this neck of the woods and do the North Downs Ridge, Toys Hill and Ide Hill. It'll put hairs on yer chestveronese68 said:Afternoon folks,

Day of not very much at all. Slept in late, windy/cold start with first snow on the mountain here this year. Fixed guest loo, which needed some new seals and inlet float. We have guests coming soon to visit, so was about time. That whole room needs a makeover, but it's low on the jobs list just now.
Wondering whether I should offload some of the bikes collection. N-4 or so? Might do that, spend the cash on something I can actually use instead.

There are things that happen that make me really enjoy my job. Finding this on the board when I arrived for a sixth form lesson is one of them…
Bless :’D2 -
Hope you set them straight and told them it was the class before them.0

Non-fun time there Oxo. Trust all resolves ok.
An easy trouble-free jolly up the M6, that's 3 traverses in a row which been nae bother, Thurs return therefore likely to be hell. Those looong works sections with 60 or 50 limits make one start to nod off.
Actually found the router said to have been delivered Sat at back door; the photo posted by RoyalMail to 'prove' was of somewhere else. So all ok so far for bband connection in the morning, openreach engineer confirmed. Plumber booked. Hoping contractor for driveway screeslope reprofiling will call in as well.
It's started raining! But forecasting dry and sunny next 2 days so much sorting out of the keerap littering the outside to come.0 -

Headley heath. Box Hill/Surrey hills area.
Couldn’t find a pot of gold. Didn’t know until recently that rainbows are actually circles, so there’s no end to the buggers.Pinno, מלך אידיוט וחרא מכונאי0 -
