Just back from my Thursday ride and meet up with friends at Hatton Locks. A not uneventful ride this one, this morning on the way out I had the rare occurrence of someone pulling across the front of me, its been a long time since someone did that, I was unimpressed he was driving a truck, on the way back I had the local postie step under my front wheel, so now I've had two out of three I'm watching for the third. I've also been wearing a new pair of shorts, Decathlon running shorts, tight fitting and very comfortable despite the elastic in the legs, the trouble is I've had a complaint from management, my Good Lady has compared them to barbed wire saying they protect the property but don't hide the view. :laugh::laugh::laugh:

So......a busy day

Two loads washed
Bike collected from shop
Meals planned
Shopping done
Decision made on new phone
Great new broadband deal saving me £41/month
Antler suitcase repair organised

For those who travel if you need new luggage consider Antler. I know it’s pricey but with a 10 year guarantee it’s worth considering. I phoned this morning, got brilliant service, £14 refundable collect and return charge unless not covered by warranty. The exceptionally helpful young man was certain my issue is covered.

Barnet,
Good afternoon all, an early start to the day with dog walking , shopping and all, then i travelled over to the Excel centre to get my rider number for the Pru ride 46 on sunday. Last year was a blast, so with the ride over to Stratford, and then the ride, and then the ride home it will be a a 80 mile ride ride for the day. i'm already smiling about it. I have two friends and my son, so we will have a bit of a chain gang. The rest of the day has been hot and sweaty, tomorrow there are storms forecast, so my new bike may get wet on the trip home from Condor's.:angry:

We must have crossed paths, I got there about 11.30 and left about 1o/c. I think I overdosed on the free energy bars.

I've got a start time of 9.36, might see you at the start then!

Good morning. My goodness. Another scorcher here as well i think. :hello: off to a garden centre near Welshpool today to buy some pot plants.
Maybe a bit late for this growing season, but unless you particularly want different varieties it's generally cheaper to grow them from seed. :okay:

Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.

Indeed. But we just wanted soemthing to put around the new pond for now. I bought a few lavender plants to put in pots around it.
