    Morning, although it’s mild it’s also raining so much for the three days of sunshine, same stuff for me again, plus I have a doctor ringing this morning not sure what that’s about
    Have a good day

    Gentle jog with the dogs, then work stuff and hopefully fit a ride in later

    Morning, bright sunny stuff. Postman pat woke me up with parcel for OH, apparently muttly is being trained on dog agility. This is going to be fun to watch. Meeting up with a mate and doing pines whilst socially distancing, he's always at least 20 metres behind me anyway.

    We got one of those dog agility things the other week Oxo. It's quite amusing for a short while, and the hounds like it because they know they get extra treats the greedy sods. They're OK at jumping over the bars and through the hoop but bloody useless at zig-zagging through the upright posts.

    Quieter day today, about to join a call about how we're (not) returning to the office anytime soon unless anyone can't work at home and can get to the office in central London without using public transport...not sure there will be many takers.

    Now we've established that Stevo and Step's dogs don't have worms, the other niggling thing is:
    Has the former stuck his toof back together? Superglue works too - you don't need that fancy dental glue. Use high viscosity cyanoacrylate, readily available from all good online auction sites.

    Bit grey, mild and damp here. Schooling with Shorty soon. Have almost depleted this current pack and won't get another till early June. Had messaged errant teacher but not conducive. Is she busy or something?! FFS.

    Later will be re-installing heavily scrubbed Linen (F275) carpet back into Porker#1. Easier said than done. Will use spray adhesive. This might get messy.

    Still got the gappy smile. I bought some dental glue from the pharmacist, pretty cheap. Just haven't got round to giving it a go yet - also not sure if it'll hold given how the tooth broke off. In the meantime its great for social distancing, with that and my skinhead haircut people give me a wide berth in he park :)

    New sunglasses arrived from Italy.

    Done all my work. Might go for a ride, or just sit in the garden with shaded eyes.

    Busy doing not a lot.
    Used up my 25km free Zwift, got an extra 10k free because the crappy phone app crashed before saving.
    Was definitely basking weather at lunchtime, 30 minutes @ gas mark 9 for me on the rollers.
    Surprise parcel from China came this afternoon which was nice.

    Aah but, have you got a black turtle neck?

    I have. I just got it from Sports Pursuit; Atak. Fantastic quality but more, now I can be a proper Porsche w@nker.

    Mostly no different to Audi and BMW operators, they don't deserve to be called drivers a lot of the time.

    So, Porsche, Audi and BMW drivers - all wanckers. Thats OK with me :p

    Stevo, please note I didn't call anybody anything I just added to someone else's opinion and let others call them names. I can't be blamed, I'd make a good politician. Seconds thoughts no I wouldn't, I can't lie.

    I'm fine Oxo as I'm not on the list anyway :smile:

    What's that's that druggies or rappers. o:)

    Well I'm just a w@nker, Pinno must be on drugs, which must mean TLW is the rapper.

    I'm the w@nker, Stevo's has the pimp mobile and TLW is the dealer.
    Logic dictates that you must be the rapper Oxo.

    Now that I didn't know. We're getting close to having enough w@nker to rename BB to 'Cake Stop' :)
