Morning coelacanths
Frosty brr and clear skies means I shall wear my entire stock of winter clothing and cycle down the road like the Michelin man.
First chores and the inane.

WFH today because I wanted a lie in and I can't be bothered scraping the car or dealing with people who don't.
However I've been awake since 3:30 and next door's mutt has only just stopped crying after they went out at 5:30 so I don't think it will be as productive today as I hoped.
Got some mince pies though.0 -
People are posting on a local facebook group warning people that it's cold and icy.
Suppose it's helpful to inform people who never look or go outside.0 -
Ciao
Friggin' cold. Was outside for an hour, knees in agony.
Now ensconsed inside eating soup. Refusing to leave the building..The camera down the willy isn't anything like as bad as it sounds.

Cold but there was still mud on the hounds walk.
Work meh and a run later0 -
Couldn't be bothered running this morning, far too cold for that so stayed in bed for a bit longer.
Admin stuff to wade through today, maybe a mince pie hunt at lunch.Advocate of disc brakes.0 -
A balmy -3C on the car thermometer at 7 this morning, but just to be safe I went full Southern Softie with the bike kit. No ice but still managed a good back wheel slide when some dozy n0b crossed the road in front of me without looking.
Powering though the morning with coffee and pork pie."I spent most of my money on birds, booze and fast cars: the rest of it I just squandered." [George Best]0 -
Just the thought of coffee and pork pie is triggering my acid reflux...
Might have to increase my meds to see me through Christmas binge0 -
21ish to start, climbing as the mistymurky burns off
misty in the volcanoes
there's a hint of division bell to the two wind pumps
my bike - faster than god's and twice as shiny4 -
We went to the beach just beyond the salt pans there. Loads of greenish olivina crystals in the black rocks. Mini was very excited, being a big fan of crystals and rocks.0

What do you want from me, SG?
Jings it's nippy nippy outside. Doubt it will make it above zero today, no high hopes, starting to cloud over so that warming effect from the great thingie in the sky ain't coming back to life.
Enough. Go do some Stuff.0 -

Afternoon folks,
Busy day in the orifice, Thursday is drive the EPO to work day so I was in the car. Would have wobbled otherwise in a Pinno style Mr Bibendum impression. Took the big car to enjoy the heated windscreen, the side window surface area I had to scrape negated the benefit and I should have taken the Panda. Saw some lunatic cycling through Richmond Park in shorts, his knees will be more phucked than all the MFs' put together. Got to go and see my sister tonight to have a chat about the old dear, this means another pub visit but in Wombledon this time.0 -

ah mega - v v jealous. we used to do annual Oct 1/2 term trips to the H10 Rubicon Palace up on, I want to say, Playa Blanca?

If you go posh all inc you have your own restaurant, bar, pools, apartments, gym etc so you don't have to mix with the food heaping beer for breakfast football shirt wearing sun burnt screaming brats arguing plebs.
I remember diving off their a few times - one time popped up for 3m safety stop, looked up and some bloke was swimming above me, which is fine, but this was off a nudist beach, so all i got was an eye full of todger fish

Villa sounds lush and tbh its the way we'd normally go, but you know sometimes when you just want a break and to do nothing at all and just be fed lush food and watered with lush wine?sungod said:

they also give you a top floor apartment so you can sit on the terrace looking down at the plebs, don your old kepi you've snuck into a suitcase and pretend you're in Fort Zindernerf.
Throwing bottles/plates/furniture/tv/sinks down at them occasionally also htlps bond plebian/posh all inc relations we found..The camera down the willy isn't anything like as bad as it sounds.

I pushed for Mrs B³ to put a deposit on an apartment in Andalucia instead of Exmoor, but was overruled.0 -
