Friday: family focussed, Oban sesame

[wakemalcolm]

Now it's DD2's quid for yesterday's bike ride quo.
Chocolate café in Oban. Used to be outstanding but they stripped back for COVID and their profits went up.....so stripped back they stayed.
Overpriced mocha in a paper cup to sit in please.
But first coffee...and le tour.

Ooh, you won by 2 minutes!

Caffeine-ing up then off soon for more blood tests. Does the coffee count?

Morning peeps. Probably won't be active for a few days whilst I get my head around shutdown project. Lots to do. Weather a tad cool to start with but hopefully improving. Fisticuffs at dawn over 2 mins, dont think so sadly.🫣

Morning
Lots of low cloud and dampness after it rained all night. My plan of a longish ride over some cols is looking very doubtful as the forecast is suggesting it might rain shortly.
More coffee I think.

Happy to call it a draw (whilst bumping my own thread). Let us know what percentage Columbian you turn out to be.

Day off today so am going to chill and do a few bits 'n' pieces in town. Ride tomorrow so will give the bike a once over later on. Anyhow, my stomach tells me it's time for brekky.

I have been scammed. I was sold a fake Friday thread by some googley eyed fraudster.

Morning

Like yesterday: dull except with extra added dullness and drizzle.
Musings required plus a new episode of South Park starring some orangey coloured bloke, TdF, curry, beer. Knackered just thinking about it.... squeeze in a snooze somewhere.

First: coffee.

Bonjour!

Bit overcast here in Paris, breakfasted , just getting ready to walk to the Eiffel Tower, then walk up it.
Birthday meal (for me) booked for this evening.

Have you won GBP20,000 in tax free cash and as many postman's bikes as you can fit in your garage?

Isn’t giving the bike a once over manual work?????? 😂

Decent night in the pub will make today’s constant meetings feel even worse.

Over to the current wife’s uncles for a bbq later. Seems bugger all chance of exercise

I blame the server this site is on. It doesn't always refresh to show latest content.

Bah! I hang my head in shame. However, my title was WAAAAAY superior. I'll leave it there.

Pinno refused his usual two cans of Irn Bru and a rollie to come down, pump the tyres up and oil the chain so guess I'll have to do it myself

If you had added in a bridie, or indeed a bradie if it's fae Aiberdeenshire, he'd have been in there. He must still be around here as it's gone grey and moist.

Bloods taken, won't get the numbers back until next week. Inc a PSA test which I don't think I've had since 2019 (?) when numbers were ok. But recall that being a urine sample? Maybe times have changed.

Bit of indoors pottering about to come until the sun comes back out this pm. 🤞

Had to Google bridie 😃 But yep, a Scottish pastie probably would have swung it.
