I need some tea.

I had a browse in my favourite second hand shop, didn't find the book I was looking for but bought three others instead...

It seems strange to see a group of teenage girls in browsing old rock records. I wouldn't have thought Queen or Bon Jovi would be for that age group. Or perhaps they were looking for a Christmas present for Grandad!

I know of a teenage girl who asked her Grandad for a record player for her birthday. Grandad was thrilled 😀

I cycled out to a cafe today. It was so busy that I ate my emergency Dolly Mixtures whilst waiting for my sausage butty. Turned out it was the lunch stop for 60+ people on an organised ride

Maybe, but what's used on the stairs?

top 1/2 done by upper machine
lower 1/2 done by lower machine
don't know really, I have only 1 machine

Even more genius, the manufacturer is not a million miles from here. You can take your machine there if it is not working, and they will try to fix it while you wait, and/or order the part for you to be delivered to your home address.

nice. we have an Oreck vacuum store near us. but the one we have is working ok still

Other than modelling four bonnet catches - which I'd much rather do in daylight - the Higman's bodywork forward of the rollcage is now complete and ready for priming.

Time for a and a piece of cake.

Morning.
It is wet here outside although not raining at the moment .
Just before I woke up I was enjoying my dream . As with most dreams some bits make sense whilst other bits don't . It was a bit of an epic dream . It was a 2 day holiday flight on Concorde. It started off well , we took off from London , I assume it was Heathrow . We landed at Bournemouth Airport to pick up food for the flight and took off again . We landed in America and were taken to our hotel for our evening meal . For some reason we must have returned home to take another trip the next day . The second flight started off fine . We landed again at Bournemouth. This is where it went wrong ! For some reason the pilot took a wrong turning and we ended up going round the streets of Bournemouth! . Most drivers got out of the way when they saw Concorde driving down the streets towards them ! There were some idiots who didn't realize how big it was . It was lucky we didn't come across any low bridges ! This is the bit which started to drag on . We assumed that the pilot was using his satnav to try to get back to the airport . Why hadn't the police organized a convoy to guide us?
This when I woke up!

It must be bl**dy difficult navigating Concorde through the streets of a town ! Our pilot was doing a marvelous job !

Back now 32 miles covered
Started off dry had a couple of light showers but nice ride
First cuppa went down well
Garden birds have been fed

Rain again but an hour of dryish is forecast about lunchtime, perhaps.
Washing machine is doing it's stuff but a boring day in prospect.
Need to get out sometime and shove some stuff into the car which is really nowadays a van with windows. The windows are tinted to stop nosy people looking in.
Need to be off by about this time tomorrow to catch a ferry as the timetable is a bit limited.

 

[Jameshow]

Skived the park run will try and get out for a ride tomorrow long and slow to burn the calories as I've put on a couple of kg!!

Hello you lurvely people.

Not been around much. My Minions are so demanding.

What's the goss? C'mon! Fess up!

Damp in North Wales. Time to lock the van up for the winter, then find a new site for it. Going to visit one later. Nearly all the sites won't take an old, but immaculate van, so we've possiby got two or three sites. We're aware of one on the otherside of Prestatyn that has an empty slot.

This has always been one of the things that stopped us having a static van .

Good luck with your hunt
