I'll run in a bit, then a day chilling ahoy. Giving a presentation to some scouts about SAR tonight.

Errrrr, waiter........excuse me I didn’t order this. I asked for pleasantly sunny and you’ve brought me dull, drizzly and windy.

Meeting a friend who is recovering from a long term heart issue. He’s had his ebike for a month now. Looking at the weather I’m going to get battered!!

Good morning chaps. A rainy day today here, but not cold, so that is a plus. Housework, then a spot of reading and i may veg out in front of the telly.

In the office this morning but it's more of a social call. By the time I've sickened everyone with pics of my recent rides, had a glance through my inbox and completed my expenses it will be time to scarper to go for another ride.
Seems we're having something called a 'chaos' day next week where a group of engineers will deliberately disrupt our IT infrastructure to see how we react. What japes! Shame I won't be here as I'm partial to a bit of chaos and would have quite enjoyed running around like a headless chicken for a day.

 

[Drago]

Why do the IT types not do their disrupting stuff at night when theres no one there?

Just found out that Stage 2 of this year's Tour of Britain finishes on the Strand in Barnstaple on Monday, September 3rd.
Busy arranging dates with mates from up country at the mo. Should have a house full for a few days!

Lazy day today after yesterdays 90 mile ride. Just got to clean house from top to bottom. Mrs aint happy when i spend the whole day on the bike.
Think i might go and spend the day in the pub. See if she is happier with that.
How much does a divorce cost nowadays.

Nipped into town to fill the car up and do a bit of shopping. Picked the caravan up on the way back, to give it a good clean and check over before we go off to Dorset next week. Spitting with rain and a bit cooler today, so might as well get a few jobs out of the way to give us a clear run through to the weekend. Planning a ride tomorrow and a walk on Friday.
First of my Chilli crop has been harvested today. Hot little blighters!

 

[Drago]

Marmite on toast for lunch. It appears to have made me rather flatulent.

Is that the sort of day where various systems "break down" and they get to see how you work around them?

That being the case, I'd say it's not to see how you react, but to find any holes in the system they didn't know about.

I recorded an episode of the new Midsummer murders. At least i think it is new, so i am about to settle down for the afternoon to watch it.

I am glad i don''t live near Drago, especially today
