I am going to start doing my plastic modelling kits again

I have been accumulating Tamiya kits galore from my recent trips to japan with the intention of doing them when I retire but I really have run out of things to occupy me at the weekend!

I have run out of diy after last years complete house renovation

Just trying to decide the first kit

Do it now, you won't have time when you retire.

I'd choose the bomber BTW.

I'm trying to decide whether to get red panniers or blue ones...

What happened on Bargain Hunt ? I kept nodding off and woke up when I heard postman at the door.

One doesn't do yellow stickers at Waitrose....does it mean scallops are not hand-dived?

I do.

Busy morning doing loads of random little bits that wanted doing. But I did manage to squeeze in some bike fettling time - I'm confident enough on the Chartres to ditch the flat pedals, so fitted my single-sided SPDs.

Had a very fine lunch of sourdough bread, ham, cheese, anchovies and olives, followed by half an avocado and two tangerines. And two of course.

Have to go into town later to pick up something from the post office, so may as well kill two birds with one stone and take the Chartres so I can see how the fettling to the gears has changed things. I won't say improved, because I just don't know yet. I'll probably need to raise the saddle a touch as well.

Mind you the coffee is weak as pi55

I wouldn't know, don't go in there since the veggies be got to be less fresh. I go to Firehouse instead.

I'd have thought *THWACK* would've been more appropriate

Funnily enough, back in the mid / late 90s when IRC was a big thing for us studenty types, I used to be a regular in an F1 chatroom, and used to announce myself as follows:
