My dark washing is washed, it needs drying now.

Isle of Man TT practice starts today.
I've subscribed to TT Live so I don't miss any of it.
Wish I was there.

My great uncle rode the IOM TT twice before the war, crashing and DNF on one of them. I rode the one lapper on my push bike and finished!

Great place, shame the bike week is no more.

25° now. Ive had my coffee but no longer feel like walking to the coop so will go in the car.
I had a horrible feeling it wasnt taxed so had to check it. Some may not know but if you type in "is my car taxed" it opens the Gov web site. Insert your number and it tells you if its taxed, insured and MOTd. Very useful.

Just set up a direct debit and forget about it.

I rode there 6 times - 11 races - sidecars and classic solos.

31°c here in Hamtun.. Couple more until the peak of 33°c is reached @ 15:00.

Well let me give you some advice. Wear very dark glasses with blinkers at the sides
I've been to the coop and the way the young women dress in this weather is bad for this old man's heart. I will have to go and lie down.
My Bro said a cold shower will do the trick but I cant tell all those girls to have cold showers

Well... Went shopping at Morrisons.. All the chillers were down so no butter, juice or yoghurts etc so only half the list was got.

No problem.. Off to Tesco.. Chillers down so nothing there either plus the escalators were broken down, too 🤷‍♂️

 

[Dave7]

That will do it.

That doesn't help your tax or MOT though.

It will just auto renew unless you cancel it. You can set up an MOT reminder as well.

As Mo says you can set up auto reminders.

Another hot one in East Cambs and the water butts here are nearly empty too ,had to rig up some netting to screen some plants and seedlings ; have lots to plant out but it's way to warm and dry at the moment.

Quick nip in to town for a bit of thrifting and popped in to Aldi for a few things there ; now in the cool of the house and may do a bit of admin and some small jobs.

Will look to get a ride in tomorrow.
