Lunchtime.

Final one?

Final one?

Depends how apocalyptic the weather is on the way back.

 

[Illaveago]

I think I keep seeing The Hood from Thunderbirds on the news .

Just racing drivers?

Well, it *is* human nature.

But in my experience, racing drivers do tend to push the barriers somewhat.

ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGH I went to watch one of the races last night & it's not recorded it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh botheration...

 

[Reynard]

Warm and (mostly) sunny here.

Have prepared another load of garden waste to take to the tip.

Bright sunshine in my neck of the woods this morning. Perfect for a ride to meet my better half. Downside is then go together in the car for food shopping. Upside is I get to ride back home afterwards. Two out of three isn't bad...

Plus on the way back is a fantastic descent. Last time I rode it, I managed 34mph... (Now, I'm just tempting fate, am I not?! )

Let go of the brakes and you'll beat that.

Heinz Tomato Soup with 'no added sugar' is not nice. Shame I accidentally bought 4 tins rather than original. You can't half taste the 'artificial sweetener' - supposed to be that stelviol - blurgh.

I suppose the problem is that a significant majority [Edit] minority* of the rest think they're racing drivers...

*I meant minority, honest...

It's the same with the "healthy" instant hot chocolate. It was ok when it just had less sugar in it. But they've lowered the sugar content and made up the shortfall with sweeteners. The stuff is now so sweet to the point where it's just totally undrinkable.

I've switched to cocoa and simply add sugar to taste.

Yeah, I guess. Though when you've worked alongside the real deal for a decade, you do kind of know the difference.

 

[Reynard]

Right, off to the recycling centre with a load of gardening waste.

In the pub again.

Tyre barriers push back though.
