not too cold, hill repeats, coffee and nibbles beckon, followed by pineapple and laziness

    Hola

    Off to llandegla in a bit to see if the parable of narrow wide chainrings is true.
    Staying in bed seems like a good option though right now.

    Nice walk with the hound spoilt by knowing I’ve got a bit of work to catch up on. Need to get a move on though as going shooting soon.

    Off to Sunny Snodland in deepest darkest Kent to collect junior's car. Disguise at the ready for when I get back to Bromley.

    Mates 50th tonight so should be a good one.

    It has yet to reach Biblical status.

    Windy but mild here.
    Tomorrow will be windy but cold apparently.

    Hopefully, Mrs P will give them the run around in it and wear them out. They seem to have quite ridiculous amounts of energy today.

    Morning folks, traditional slow start is being enjoyed.
    I used to work with a lad from Snodland, I envisaged a marsh land populated with inbred trolls that live in caves or under bridges.
    Need to buy a spoke for the hack and do a bit of pottering, nothing too strenuous mind.

    windycold ride, needed much coffee, a choc, avocado and salmon roll, and a toasted cheese croissant just to keep going

    london's infestation of temporary traffic lights is worsening, as are associated accidents and near misses i suspect

    just noticed ' in harrods, grrrr, bloody autocomplete, it's these little things that lead to the breakdown of society

    Big breakfast at the café. Dog walked for 2 hours to burn it off. Mini off to a pal for a sleepover. Me and Mrs H3 off to the cinema later, then dinner.

    Good call. Got out of Snodland as fast as I could. Which wasn't very fast given what I was driving. Kept the go pedal nailed on the M20 and got it up to 70 :lol:

    You've caned it, it no longer produces 59bhp and she hasn't even got it yet. :roll:

    If you were worried about her speeding...

    It's not exactly new so it has had 30k miles of running in. Anyhow, speeding will always be a bit theoretical in that car if there's a bit of an uphill gradient.

    We could go tomorrow but my wheel is in bits awaiting repair.
    Who knew fitting a new chainring makes your spoke snap and shoot through the rim strip instantly deflating a tubeless tyre :roll:
    At least my chain didn't drop.

    Romanian whiskey, followed by port, champagne, champagne and port mixed and then rum. This was before 12 - how the hell nobody gets shot on these shoots is beyond me
