The Retirement Thread

What a result!!!! This is the much maligned Virgin Trains I'm talking about.

Station manager approaches me and asks which service I'm booked on. 13.13 I reply. Then he says "right then we better get you on the first train through." Five minutes later I'm on a train with my bike.

11/10 to Virgin for that one. Not something you hear often. I'll be early.

A 17 mile bimble for me. Dry at first then it hissed down. Roast lamb for us today with roasted veggies.

Road kill or rustling?

Just fixed the brake light and the indicators on my trike, been putting it off for ages turned out to be a broken wire on the rear light and a sticky micro switch in the brake lever.
On the weather front we have and 33.2c

Dog Jog done. 3.2 miles in 32 minutes. Not bad considering it was blummen hot and Lemmy was trying to hump every lady dog. I was in my usual place, on my own in the middle - lightweight racing snakes ahead, o,d ladies and the poorly prepared behind.

@Dirk and anyone else in the SW, me and the bruv heading down to your neck of the woods for a 3-4 day motorbike tour. Probably base ourselves in Plymouth. Any suggestions for Stuff We Must Not Miss gratefully received.

TIA

Plymouth is the other side of the county from me - not an area I'm overly familiar with. Soz.

Morning all. Woke up early and couldn't get back to sleep, so I watched the 3rd episode of The Bodyguard on iPlayer, good innit!

Morning chaps from a misty, wet , dull Wales.

I havn't watched any episodes of the bodyguards yet. I am recording them, so don't give the plot away.

Opticians appointment this morning. Legs a touch sore following yesterday's run, so no run today.
