Wotcha!

I guess this is the beginning of sunshine and showers and soggy next week which has drifted Northwards... or Westwards or West and down from the North or what the hell does it matter, it's happening. Sorry Beans, party time all nighters are off for a week or so. His latest routine is to come in at before 7am and mew at Mrs Pinno. I guess she's officilly breakfast lady servant thingy.

Off to see the new sensory room at muppet central later but before that, coffee then chores.

Laters

Just keep that wet to the West. OK here at the moment. Maybe indoor cycle and shops today.

'Loon is a big guy. He can stretch his arms out and hold a marquee up to stop the wind reaching you.

I have instructed the wet to stay West until after dark, which the forecast is now showing. Hope that helps.

First home based day for a while, get some outside Stuff done. Wonder if the blackbirds have left me any raspberries?

I've joined the commuter crowd. I live about three miles away from our works so decided to cycle in today. 17 miles later I arrived.

Undecided about the route home yet.

Morning all,

Early start to get my COVID and Flu jab done at the Walk-In sessions at the GP this morning. Got there 15 minutes before opening and there was already a queue. Got ticket number 18. When I left they were giving out ticket number 78 and there was a queue out of the door.

I'd say at least 100% of the other people were 20 years older than me. Now my 10th Chineeesese-Fever jab!

Oh, and it was the dreamy, sexy nurse doing the jabs. Win-win :-)

There was a reason for the queues then!

Its funny how the standard of nurses increases as you get older...

Morning all. Slow start today, just getting ready to go for a ride out on the graveller in the SUN. Yep full sun, but still single figures. Mutt sprawled out sunbathing in his favourite sunspot. Better make the most of it as snow tyres needed shortly apparently. Enjoy your wkend folks. #Photonic69 it's always a win win when it's a pretty nurse, just a shame it's over so quickly.

I'm sure that's exactly what she would say...

Stevo_666 · October 4

Slept like a log last night, must have been the pedalling to and from work yesterday. Nice sunny day here but stuck indoors torturing numbers for the day while Mrs. 666 takes the hounds out for their 2 monthly shave. This evening may involve cider or plonk.

tlw1 · October 4

Must post on here more often otherwise who else can I describe my daily boring like to?

hounds had a 2.5hr walk with morning as I met a pal as I was just finishing my walk as he started his. Had a drive of his RS6, awesome car but doesn’t really make any noise compared to mine

later is tape my feet (all remaining 9 toenails) ready for tomorrows ultra - absolutely not prepared after basically 4 weeks of the hospice and 2 weeks of consoling the current wife in various pubs and bars

so obviously out later

Sounds like you need to cross to the AMG Dark Side next time round 🙂

If it's any consolation I usually lose most of my big toenails after a week skiing, although as I'm a lizard they grow back in time for the next trip.

He had the e63s before - night and day for sound.

im ok on the light side with M4 😎

Just remembered it's the 22nd anniversary of my dad's death in 2002. If he was still alive today he'd be 108! He was a fine and talented man though we often see eye to eye especially in my teens and early 20s. Miss the old, cantankerous bugger, his swirling pipe smoke and his maimed left hand that happened when he blew his fingers off aged 12 messing about making gunpowder.

Good luck k Mt T, hopefully you won't lose anymore nails. Currently I'm minus 3 but heyho, life goes on. Good you remember your old man #photonic69. Sadly lost mine 45yrs ago and missed so many firsts and a few 💩 decisions since that would have been nice to have had guidance on. Glad you remember him, my old man had a knack for buying every 💩 car going.
