Morning folks and a happy birthday to Mo :okay: im hoping for warmer weather...its going to happen any day now :rolleyes: ive learnt a lesson this year on starting sowing too early but on the positive side my compost 'hot bed' is working a treat ^_^ have got tomatoes,chillies and even basil growing in the mini greenhouse. When i eventually get a full size greenhouse i shall make a large 'hot bed' under the staging for keeping plants happy in the spring :okay:
Its a Tesco delivery day and ive over ordered on everything.....figured that food prices are just going to rise so might as well stock up. :okay:

Good morning all.
It's nice and sunny here:sun:

My son has done his back in playing squash last night, he does have a bit of a weakness there. So I am on a mercy mission this morning to see what he needs. A good excuse for another bike ride for moi.:bicycle:

All the usual things to do today, I might be able to fit a couple of pints in at the Mitre Mitre lunchtime, plus the Giro starts this morning :bicycle::bicycle::bicycle::bicycle:
Another busy day in paradise. :cuppa:

Good morning, grey and calm here and I think the sun may arrive shortly it is though forecast for 60% rain at 2.00pm Heading out on the bike to meet a buddy, I'm taking him to a new cafe which I found a few weeks ago. Our bunch is down to two at present, one is always heavily occupied with TTs at this time of year and the other has an injury which we fear will keep him off the bike till late June. It's certainly screwed his cycling plans for the year. The injury is such that what he can do is very limited in what he can do in general life. It's an easy 55 miler which has a couple of bail out options if the weather turns against earlier than forecast or we can up the pace to get home quick, both should work.

If it's not peeing down I'll plant my potatoes this afternoon. Must go I've spent far too much time discussing Wordle strategy today. :laugh:

Great thanks @Dave7, I was going to watch that tonight but you've spoilt it. I might watch the 1966 World Cup Final instead so don't tell me who wins.

Birthday Greetings @Mo1959 🥂

A good ride today, 30 miles in 1:58:46 including 2450 feet of ascent. It's a very beautiful evening so I'm going up to the allotment to do a spot of planting and sow lettuce etc.

I fancy watching DI Ray at 9.00 but Mrs P is playing 🎾 so the question is do I risk it.

Came home to a speeding ticket. In my defence I genuinely didn't know it is a 30 limit but that's no excuse. Paperwork says I may qualify for a Diversionary Course. Apparently there are now four variations of the Speed Awareness Course so I'll wait to see which if any I get offered. Otherwise it's £100 and 3 points. 😢

I got caught out in what I really thought was a 50 mph zone. Went on a speed awareness course and actually found it really interesting and helpful.
I had to pay for the course which was the same as the fine but avoided the 3 points.
