Definitely a lie-in here. Bit of a unplanned wild night was had and we finally got to sleep at 5am.😱 💘 💤

Got up at exactly 11.57am - so just avoided getting up in the afternoon.

Lazy day planned and another long night awaits.

I think our body clocks are different to most in this thread. 😂

Have a good day all.

Nocturnal? Can't be exposed to sunlight.😂

Neither of us like garlic*, silver bullets and religious crosses either. 🤣

*A bit of a lie that one, just put it in for comedic effect.👹

I had to google that as I had it in my head that linguine was a sea food🙂.
I like garlic.....sounds good.

Leftover chicken casserole from yesterday with chips today. Waste not want not as they say.

Bedding very nearly all dry.

Wrapped up in my fleecy throw with the heating on.
Feeling crap - nose streaming, coughing and aching.
Dosed up with LemSips and cough mixture.
Suppose I've got a week of this, judging by MrsD's progress.

I seem to remember there was a Bell class dingy made in Leicester.Belive the company was called Bell Wood Worklng

Your right they were very big in the 60s and 70s, selling wood Mirrors,Miracle, GP 14 ( they have a bell on the sail ) and Streaker dinghys mostly in kit form ,
That was the boom time for sailing as buying a dinghy in kit form was so much cheaper.
But as time went on, wood construction got replaced by glass fibre (F.R.P) as it was as strong and people were prepared to pay more for something that didn’t need painting and varnishing every winter.
Think Bell Woodworking went bust sometime in the late 80s or early 90s.

Anyway the trip to Huntingdon was successful 😀😀. We are picking it up on Monday .

It was a good game just the wrong result.
