Yes, those checkout girls (don't recall males back then) were amazing.

Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.
Used to be the same on the busses. Worked all day, huge queues to get on the bus. Your tired, hot or cold and just want to get home. Then some numpty waits until they were on the bus to decide to get they're money out only to find after rummaging around that they don't have enough or don't have the right change. Really got on my bits did that
Also people who drive knowing that on the way is (say) the Mersey Tunnel, they rock up and then go "now is a good time to get my wallet out of my jacket on the back seat and get the right money for the toll". So easy to get the change ready as we get in the car, it's no bloody surprise that on your route is a toll.
Idiots.
Idiots.

Hello everyone. the bad news is: it is raining today. 
The good news is: it will not rain tomorrow.

Good morning folks,
Attended our much delayed running club annual dinner last night. A chance to catch up with friends and have a drink or several 🍺🍺
Not used to such “late” nights, and finishing with a couple of large G+T’s has made me rather vague this morning.
Stay safe folks 👍🌻

See above - it isn't an area, it's the Sports Arena name, sponsored by.....
Strange how we differ.
I would always have g&t BEFORE the meal etc. Finish the night with a Cognac.
Anyway......glad you enjoyed it.
Had a couple of Pints of " Horizon " before and during the meal ( 70's theme, Prawn cocktail starters / chicken and Chips / Eton mess / profiteroles etc ) I had Melon, Veggie Lasagne followed by black forest gateau made by one of our friends. I felt I'd had enough to drink but then a friend came back from the bar and plonked a large G+T in front of me and I thought ' Oh, go on then... "

Have been to the gym, just to get back into it. Followed by a trip to my LBS to collect my Croix de Fer, in for its annual service, swapping it for my Raleigh with a cable broken in the innards of the shifter. He seemed confident that he could sort it.
They forecast rain all day here.Hello everyone. the bad news is: it is raining today.
The sun is out.
They've forecast sunny tomorrow......I'll take my rain jacket.
