Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.
I am here. Ye God's. Turned the tv on and on ITV there were kiddies programmes, then came the commercials aimed at kids. There was a commercial for a game called (wait for it) Windy knickers.:ohmy: I kid you not.

Anyhoo. Morning. Warm again here and very misty. Kinda like that mizzle weather as Mo would say.:laugh:

Stay safe peeps:hello:

Phew....this temperature is unreal for the end of November. Just a walk but still breaking a sweat.

T'is true. This os a product of Drago Industries. The deluxe version includes a replica of my crustiest Y fronts.

Another Q dsy for me. I have a minor health issue rearing its head, so no ride today. A good long session on the bass this morning, and some reading this afternoon, gym this evening.

Good morning folks,
Heading off on the inaugural Bournemouth “ Real Ale Trail “ at lunchtime. There’s eight pubs on the list all within comfortable walking distance. Pick up a map from any of the venues, get a stamp from each pub you visit and get a free beanie hat on completion. The event runs until Sunday, but I’ve only got this afternoon free so things could get a bit messy…
 
Just got a notification from my bank that my debit card is about to expire and they are sending me a new one. Made me think, when was the last time I even touched my debit card ? I used to use it for withdrawing cash from ATM’s but the last time I did that was March 2019. It’s been sat untouched in a drawer since then. (And I still have the £50 in notes that I withdrew on that occasion, they too are untouched :sad:).

Mrs Tenkaykev always withdraws £50 in Scottish notes when we're about to return home after visiting our daughter in Edinburgh. She says it's so she's got an excuse to visit again. I've returned with Scottish banknotes after visiting and have had no issues with spending them locally.

Good morning all. Had a quick look outside and it seems fine: blue sky and sun is out so I think I will go on my bike to let the dogs out at my stepson's house and then do a few more miles wherever the mood takes me. Nothing else planned otherwise.........so far. :hello:
Looking at the front tyres on the Juke yesterday, I noticed they are getting close to the tyre wear limit. I was hoping they would last till I get my new car but because we are going to Devon in a couple weeks and then to Cardiff a week later, they will need changing before we go. :cursing:
