Moaning,

Wet but hopefully drying, warmer, sunny day in prospect according to the forecast

WFW today but due to distance it’s a drive in. Be a late finish too so nothing on the cards for tonight.
I do hope I've done this right :) first timer ;)

    CC👍. Morning peeps. Fetching OH,s birthday prezzie ready for Saturday. Hopefully she likes it otherwise me and the lads are in deep 💩. More doggy sitting and coffee duties for the decorators, tomorrow's the last day hopefully. Currently dark and dry and down to stay dry.

    Booked tomorrow off to change rear brakes and disks on the car. Just remember what a PITA it was to get the rear disk off the last time, had to use the Jack and a crow bar to get the leverage required. Should be fun.

    Well done CC. I dunno, these lazy solar deities...

    Third day on the trot in the Twatcave and its getting a bit boring but am in the office tomorrow for my annual BUPA 'MOT'. Suspect I may get a few advisories after the amount of time spent off the bike last year.

    I'll cut back on the pot noodles but the Scotch Eggs and Cornish pasties are non-negotiable.

    Red wine induced fuzz is well and truly in place today, Dry January is great fun...
    WFW followed by WFH later, packing for a weekend away and hot tub beckons followed by an early night. Not.

    Working in offices where I should have hybrid commuted and didn’t due to needing to leave on time as meeting some friends for a run

    Afternoon folks,
    Busy day of WFW for me today, had to drive in and drop the EPO off, I suspect the traffic this evening will be very tedious. Trip to the Autosport show tomorrow is confirmed, the delights of the NEC await.
    Just got to get through the rest of today without murderising any of the idiots or defenestrating my computer, this may be harder than it sounds.
    Well done for a fine start to a daily thread CC, that's the kind of thing needed, right is far too rigid a concept.

    Quiet innit. I'm trying to avoid watching The Apprentice now that Stressbag and Stroptwentysomething have stolen the remote.

    To be fair, beer is 90-odd percent water. Especially the Southern stuff.
