    Morning all. Mutt and decorator sitting still. At least its not raining. Small ride out planned later to try new wheels out whilst eldest takes over babysitting duties. Run tonight with local club I've joined so hopefully fitness will return. Have a nice day all.
    Too many bikes according to Mrs O.

    Boy it's dull.
    Toots are back to school today. Yippee! That means Mrs P and I can sort the house out.
    More wood to stack later this morning when it arrives.
    Chilly weather on the way so they say.

    Hopped on the bike in my sexy tights this morning to discover a visit from the P fairy. Car instead.

    Days are blurring, last night went for a walk with a pal and we saw some fun bikers and I went there’s the Wednesday X club and my pal pointed out it’s Tuesday 🤦‍♂️

    Work snizzle with too many meetings. Later is a swim and a run (ish)

    Another day caving and being annoyed by idiots. At least its not raining - yet. Finally sourced the right part to fix the knackered garage door so will get that sorted today.

    Ridey ride. Some blackguard had parked their shiny new e-bike in my slot in the cycle store, as indicated by both my locks being locked to the slot. Luckily they were idiots, and only locked the back wheel, rather than locking the bike to the racking, so I lifted it out and put in one of the vacant overhead slots. Hopefully they're a big strong lad, because the bike weighs a ton...

    Warm out, tailwind-assisted, it'll be wet and headwindy on the way home though. Friday looks like a nice day for a ride, if windy.

    WFH today, currently looking at various webcams and weather forcasts.
    Will need to exercise today, most likely a run.
    Left over carbonara (the proper version, not cream and ham) for lunch.

    Afternoon folks,
    TLW's not the only one blurring days, mild Thursday hangover is present, shame it's early. WFH for me today rather than Friday as usual as I may have to go to the NEC Friday, deep joy. I'll go to the pub later to recalibrate my body clock. Seano, did you drive to work in the sexy tights? Went to the quacks for a blood test this morning, they found it eventually and apparently it's pressure was also good. I'd be disappointed if you didn't have proper carbonara HD. Oh well, better get back to fending off stupid questions

    Trying to arrange site visits around this weather is rubbish. A ride followed by a late morning meeting on Monday would have been ideal if snow wasn't forecast...

    Binned off the ride as it started pixxing it down. Sadly I need a new disc as I original one has warped and won't straighten. Mutt walked again and censored me it's gone parky out.

    Shower dodging, tree brash fettling, tip run #1 of several, keep on baggin' (per Noddy Holder soundwise). Feeling 'kin tired, one calf muscle has decided to start twingeing for no apparent reason, is it after effects of that heavy, first in a long time gym sesh yesterday?

    Enough. Hit the caffeine + shortbread, poke about on t'interweb, early night beckons.

    Looks like it might end up p1$$ing on Stranraer...

    It didn't, though it was very windy.
    Passed this woman (late 50's ish) who was on her bike as I was driving in to collect the younger half of clan Pinno and she was making faces as she struggled uphill into the wind and looked like she was moving at about a speed just about standstill - no joke.
