Yoga this morning, I had muscles stretched I didn't know I had. An afternoon working in the garden and doing housework. And an evening doing the ironing, with help from my Good Lady, the first time she's wanted to help since she was in hospital. I've had a busy day

Time for bed, a great day has been had and I hope you all enjoyed yours.

But misty here again, off for a day out with my big brother, at 23 years older than me he could have been my dad. We get on well and he is the only member of that family that I have contact with.

Good morming folks. Might be a bit cool here at the moment, but the sun is shining and it looks like another cracking day is in store.

 

[Drago]

Dull here. Off out for a run once Mrs D and Mini D are out the door.

Morning wrinklies.
Beautiful day here. Off out for a 20 miler this morning with a bit of shopping thrown in.
Might nip up to Morte Point to take doggie for a walk later and have a spot of lunch at the Ship Aground.

I know I'll probably get grief from @Dirk for posting workie stuff but thought this may help you appreciate how lucky you are to be retired.

Summary of message from senior management.

• Yes, you can organise something to mark the World Cup, however
• Flags/bunting cannot be attached to painted surfaces, glass or support pillars (basically everywhere)
• Staff must not stand on chairs to attach flags/bunting to non existent attachment points
• Anyone attaching flags/bunting to non existent attachment points must update the room Risk Assessment to highlight the risks involved and the steps taken to mitigate those risks
• Anyone attaching flags/bunting to non existent attachment points must inform senior management so that they can come to inspect them and tell you to take them down

Currently in Jubilee Crescent, in one of our favourite cafes having lunch, we've been in the city centre shopping this morning, after lunch we are down the club playing bingo with the rest of the wrinklies

Slight change of plan. We did a shorter ride and ended up at the Crown in West Down.

What's the number on the side of the glass?

One you were served in Devon was in an illegal glass.
