Owdo
No!

And your Gaelic, what was that like.

Nah, he paid a visit yesterday.
Might be the recent weather that threw him.

Morning??

The last year of any Gaelic class was my first year in secondary (65-66)..
I've just got a few words..
Ho, ho, ho

I dinna ken any swearies in the Gaelic....

Headed out just before four on my usual up and down hill run...
Plenty cyclists out, maybe like me they waited on the wind dropping

Catching up on the last 40kms of Il Giro..
Chilled cider and a Mr Kipling Bakewell Tart,
Mr K now makes exceedingly crumbly pastry cakes
At ease, troops

Ah well, you've time yet.

Very few out on bikes today, despite it being dry until mid afternoon. Out and back on the same hill?

Cider in a Bakewell Tart, you sure it's made by Mr Kipling.

I am, so far. You.

Rainy rainy rattle staney

Nah, I do a circuit, I stop twice on the way to the top part and give a call on the radio, I spoke with someone not too far away on UHF on the highest part for about 15 mins, trips a mix of country road, run down a load of urban paths, a short run along a riverbank and rough farm tracks and I did some through the woods work near the end, I remembered why I don't use that often to finish, average of 5 for quite a bit, one part is usually muddy but dryish yesterday, a nice drop down of at least half a mile to home. Its a far better run from the top of the woods.
Need to get the camera out as sand martins nesting in a sandy bend of the riverbank.

We'd have had similar last night.

New one for stopping on a climb, checking your radio.

You get them. They may be camera shy.

I always carry a handheld and have a call or two depending on where I get to, I'm not exactly in the best spot here for VHF and upwards.
I can take the 'big gun' out to assist (see behind the bike and trig)

Handheld in handlebar bag pocket....
I sometimes carry another handie in the opposite pocket..

Another portable antenna..
Beinn Chaorach (near Helensburgh)

Yagi, same as a TV antenna, jeez, this was 2009?

Note, the hills are only done on sunny days, I want to see so sod that cloudy wx..

This that CME, expected to sweep past earth at close on 1,500,000 Miles per hour. Knocking out communication satellites as it passes?

You've got a better chance of seeing it, being further north.

Dropped to G2 but it'll depend on the solar wind speed..
more likely fading,
I've seen it as low as 6 on the scale, presently 6.5

I'm just over a mile from Bonnybridge, one of the UK's top UFO areas..
I can have a word if you want..

I'm in one of the UFO hotspots, don't see how you "having a word" would help or hinder anything.
Isn't it odd there's a NATO exercise going on up there this week. Extra aerial activity by "the military".
