Oh, I forgot, was there not a Dillon too. Think he was the rabbit?

Yes, Dillon the rabbit, the character that always seemed stoned and on a different planet to the others.

I'm watching it on YouTube just now. It's still brilliant. Lol

our lad text me about half an hour ago, they might be late or not come to see us at all today, apparently everyone's still asleep.

Good morning all fellow wheezers.
After a rainy start to the day, the sun has come out.
MrsP is out to lunch with some friends, so i might take the advantage of this and call in at the Mitre for a pint or two on the way home.

Whereas I, on the other hand
Harvey elliot played the full 90 minutes and was excellent.

He managed to play a full game!!
That's unbelievable in this day and age. Will he need an extended rest and recovery period to help him get over what he's paid to do?

 

[classic33]

WoW isn't actually that big a word

T'were early though, give her that much.

Yes, Dillon the rabbit, the character that always seemed stoned and on a different planet to the others.

Dougal, addicted to "sugar cubes", and hyperactive all the time.
Ementrude, munching on poppies.
Zebedee, always with a spring in his step, unable to stay still.

Morning all...Seeing as it was a bit damp first thing this morning I decided to do a 73 minute spin from Stryn to Oldedalen in Norway, absolutely beautiful,

. Another one to put on the list of must do's.

Looks like it's going to be mostly a wet day so I've got a little plumbing job to do in the bathroom, just change the basin pop-up to a swivel type.

@Paulus are you allowed to take your bike into The Mitre? It would make a nice half way stop when doing the Hertfordshire lanes.

 

[Dirk]

Nice over on Broadsands this morning.

I have taken my bike into the Mitre, out the back in the garden area before. There has been a change of Landlord recently so I will ask the "duty manager" today what their policy is and get back to you.

Watching the shinty on telly yesterday prompted another pang of longing for the Highlands. Perhaps one day we’ll find the confidence to move up there, in the meantime we’ll just have to make do with holiday stays. But perhaps one day.

Mrs Tenkaykev and I might be applying for political asylum up there in a few years time. Just need to wait a few years for the independence vote and rejoining the EU😉

I was just thinking that The Magic Roundabout seemed to be about a bunch of surreal stoned characters and was probably created by a bunch of surreal stoned characters!

And wasn’t Dougal a play on de Gaulle ? Allegedly there was some sort of subliminal political satire about it.
