morning , a bit chilly at wigan pier this morning, are you speaking from experience @welsh dragon

God no.

 

[Dirk]

Can we get an update on whether the ALDI cycle offer is worth visiting?

I'll do my best. 👍

 

[Drago]

Do what I do. Buy it all up, shove it on Ebay, and let the profit roll in.

Morning. Just a walk this morning as I need some rest days I think. Bloomin nippy up here but blue sky and sun is out now. Getting really autumnal now. Trees are turning and dropping their leaves and the conkers are falling.

Morning all. Looks like a fine morning here in the capital, so give the 🐶 a good long walk and run before it rains this afternoon. Missing getting out on the 🚲, it's been 2 weeks since the last ride

Morning all. My body has risen but I think my head is still in bed . I feel knackered today after a weekend of doing nothing. Watched the UCI yesterday......140+miles in that weather, no thank you. I would rather do 20 miles wearing a pair of Welshy's bloomers (or maybe not)
I will try my new steed out this morning, just a 10/15 miler as I really dont feel like it.
I am then going to Aldi as I need an autumn type top......Decathlon have some decent ones but they are white or black, not very exciting colours.

Morning all, late on parade this morning, although I have been awake since 6am. The dog has been out, boiled eggs and toast just eaten for breakfast, so I am now ready for the rest of the day. The sun is out at the moment, so one of the bikes is coming out and a few miles will be put in the legs before stopping at the Mitre on the way home for a pint or three.

Got a new text message tone for the dumb phone. Its Frank Drebin saying "Nice beaver".

We have an Aldi nearing completion. Due to open on 10th October. Looks a decent size so hoping it has some decent offers occasionally too.

I’ve just sent away for one of these weighted blankets to see if I can maybe sleep better using it. Maybe a gimmick, but they seem to get decent reviews.

We had a friend (moved away years ago)......a naive and very nice girl whos surname is Beaver. Out with a mixed group of friends she saw a tee shirt with the logo "I enjoy beaver diving". She was going to buy it until one of the group had a quiet word with her.
