Isn't the Prairie a bit far from the sea?

Explain prairie oysters then.

Me too....

but the days are about to get longer....

Yrp, summer's on its way.

Morning there is a pretty sky at the moment with some red dappled clouds. I'm going back for a nap.

Jarred anchovies on toast for breakie, my word they were strong ones....

Edit to say they came in a jar, not that they had suffered sudden impact....

Coffee has been brewed in the stove top pot. Wife and kids have gone out to work/school. Must get motivated... It's been wet overnight so an extended canal ride might be like bog snorkelling. Hmm, a play at Clayton Vale MTB trail ? Just waiting for the rush hour to die down.

This morning, while lying in the bath, I decided to treat my face to a new Lidl razor blade. I tried to attack the plastic bubble that the four-pack came in with some nail clippers...to no avail. After a certain amount of effing and blinding, I went downstairs to get my hacksaw and cut the packaging in half using the lavatory bowl as a workbench. All I wanted was a comfortable shave FFS!

Mods, do we have to have this bad language? There is no such thing as a comfortable s***e!

Actually it serves you right.

Just checking my memory, Desperate Dan used a blowtorch

Looks a good way to blunt a blade, no wonder he had problems.

Morning all, my ankle looks less like a tennis ball today so I think two nights resting with then ice pack has helped.

Mmmm it may be a while before it gets this far.

Penultimate day in work, just been told there is no canteen service on New Years Day, I may change my mind about coming in now

Old Peculier these days is a disappointment. When they moved it many moons ago, they destroyed it. And it used to be my favourite beer

I'll agree it ain't what it was but it's still good.
Everards did a similar thing with 'Old Original' when they dropped the 'Old' from the name.

If you really want to confuse the bar staff in a Weatherspoons though ask for a pint of 'Greene King Abbott', the ones in Leicester invariably ask "was that 'Greene King' or 'Abbott Ale'.

Going for a long coastal walk soon followed by soup and a roll in one of my favourite cafes.

^^^^
How do you do a roll in a cafe? I find it easier to roll down slopes.

Put my Christmas pudding on to steam. 2 months and 8 hours late.

Not as green!

Just back. Did a full lap of Clayton Vale and a quick spin round the pump track. The heavens opened just as I was coming out of the Vale. I'm surprisingly clean. Not muddy on the trail. Just having lunch before I go and clean the bike.

Friday lunchtime can not come fast enough.
