    More driving - stopped at Te Anau and it got a lot warmer this evening. Nice meal out and some cold beer, 5 day boat trip in the morning - have to see whether the other passengers will be good company or not!

    Morning

    Still dark here and the forecast says it’s not raining. Pondering what clothing to wear on todays ride. Will be leaving the house in 45 minutes and it’s currently 4 degrees with a bit of a wind chill. I think it gets up to the heady heights of 6 degrees by lunch time.

    Morning all. Run ride and beer in that order today with the OH,s blessing. Young oxo on the mend, but won't be drinking. Currently grey and cool out, suspect it won't change. Young oxo,s old car currently up for sale and he's awaiting the hoards of tyre kickers.

    Too many bikes according to Mrs O.

    if I’m organised I’ll wax the skis one night too.

    brrr, colder than expected, but sunny at least

    pond frozen over and icy roads on top of the hill, though not as icy as the ice sheet that was once the footpath by the pond

    time for crusty bread with smelly cheese and grapes, followed by coffee

    Chiller starts with a few cups of tea in the hot tub, run with a pal and then maybe a bike ride to get my haircut. Wash cars, etc and pub later

    Nice and frosty this morning.

    Managed a hound walk with Mrs. 666 yesterday as not much else to do, will probably do the same later today when it warms up a bit. Also decided against having a drink last night as I'd cracked open the decent strength painkillers when the local anaesthetic started to wear off.

    Currently chilling with coffee and some snoozy dogs.

    Eh up.

    Been a while. Busy with a load of stuff round here, catching up on things that have been left go for the last few years. So, doing a lot of house repairs and maintenance work, most of which is tedious detail stuff but gotta be done. Even hired in some professionals to do a few of the more awkward jobs.

    Had all new solar panels and hot water systems installed this week, at great expense. Today was kicking out a maximum of about 15 kw, a good start.

    Summer in full swing which is nice.

    No ice on my bike ride today but stood waiting for everyone to catch up on the top of Blakey ridge in a cloud with a 30mph plus wind felt like the -10 someone’s weather app estimated. Still first decent longish ride of the year completed.

    Blakey: you ever frequent the Danby Bakery?

    Was there last week: it were grand.

    No I’ve never tried it. I think we once stopped at the coop for water, that’s if it’s a coop.

    First ride in a while, I’m currently dead.

    Looked lovely out today, I just felt completely drained and didn’t manage to get out. Hopefully will feel more like myself before long. Off to west Oxfordshire tomorrow morning.

    Hmmm, should add a few more to this…

    My new Titanium collar bone is feeling much better so have ditched the sling and chosen wine over morphine based pills tonight 😀

    Does this mean you are now lighter with a better power to weight ratio.
