Typical; I had it all worked out - Wednesday: wacky Wellington waver wows wandering Welsh wenches.
Not fair. Go back to bed SG.

Dull innit, with a sprinkling of grey and drizzle mixed in.
Today I shall be embarking on a treacherous journey towards weegie land stopping in pigland. It's a bad idea to stop in the middle of pigland but sometimes in life, you have to take risks.
If I survive, I shall let you know. If I don't, you'll need a medium.

Looks like a wee bit of sun here, bike ride with GP appointment on the way. Might get the thicker jersey out.

Mooring.
Awake and not back in bed! Huzzah!
Car booked in for tracking at 10:30. Best get out and check pressures. Boat almost finished! Just 2 Anchors to attach, two top mast flags to make and the rear lantern to glue back somewhere though the rigging in limiting my possibilities here.
Just gotta take some more anti-nausea pills and email the Onc Nurse.
Sometimes. Maybe. Possibly.

Damp roads this morning disfiguring shiny bike. Slightly dizzy now due to lack of food which I shall resolve shortly with a late Stevo-eaque style breakfast.

Morning Peeps,
I probably should have started the thread since I was up for a 5am call with the Kingdom of Far Far Away. Powered through with the help of coffee and a Cornish pasty, but now considering a power nap.
Cranky bint who is one of our neighbours didn't like us having our own trees pruned as apparently it ruined her privacy. We told her politely that she can't rely on other people's vegetation for privacy and was free to plant her own if it bothers her that much. Stupid cow.

We had exactly the same in our old house, we cut down 15 20ft connifers as they'd been left to run riot by the previous owner and were told we'd spoilt "their garden".
Clothes shopping at lunch with wifey, apparently dad jeans aren't cutting it anymore.
Packing tonight for a weekend away with mates, need to stock up on some decent wine.

It's not even like we were chopping anything down, just a light trim of a silver birch and a yew tree (same as yours, the previous owners had never touched them). We told the silly bint that a trim would help them grow better but she kept on banging on about her privacy, so I told her she was free to plant her own stuff as we couldn't do it for her. I bet she doesn't do anything as probably too bloody tight.

Was booked in for tracking at 2pm yesterday, Cancelled! Thanks. Now booked in for 3pm. Went off to sunny pigland. Got to pigland capital and they... cancelled.

Just out of interest, where's Pigland?

Decent ride, weather better than expected, some sun , overdressed and sweaty! Slightly delayed by 0910 GP appointment not happening until 0940, must have been a tricky first patient on the list 😬

Last house our neighbour wanted me to cut or trim trees, but never offered to pay for doing so. They didn't get done...

Strange, that.
If she does nothing in the next few months I might ask her if it was that big a deal after all and watch the steam come out of her ears.

Evening
Got roped into doing jobs round the house. First fitted new bannister then unpacking the garden furniture followed by putting it together. Why do they use so much packaging these days, the back of the car is completely full of cardboard, bin full of bubble rap and there’s 2 pallets as well. It’s strange how removal men can safely move stuff just covering it in a blanket.

Heading for home after a day out in Venice, benn gloriously sunny here, but chilly in the shade. I'm not looking forward to returning to grey.

Great job 👍 what’s the next project?

Probably actually finish my Alien Xenomorph figure with Egg that is about 95% complete since 2021. Wasn't happy with the paint finish so might do a respray. It is a cool kit. My wife bought it for me in about 1996. I don't rush into things lightly.

Can't you just turn the used ones inside out and wear them again?
