Lots of thunder and lightning over the mountains.

Torrential rain.

Me too! Daughter No3 is providing the BBQ, and, taxiing us there and back, so, I can have the odd glass of vino (supervised by Mrs @BoldonLad). Daughter No 2 will be in attendance too.

Just back from BBQ, and a couple of bottles of vino tinto. I had a great time, in can tell that from mrs Boldonlad’s frown 😊

It would have been my Dad's 100th birthday today.

We've now had five hours of delicious summer rain. Gentle and constant, it will be doing a lot of good.

The trouble with comedy now is you have to be so “politically correct” these days........
Years ago you could take the pi$$ out of anybody and they would laugh, today they would call the police and you'll end up in court.

Utter tosh

Morning all.

Managed to stay in bed until 7.30, but that was mainly due to thunderstorms in the night scaring Bruce, so he had a lie in too.

Easy 30miler planned with the club this morning with a nice little coffee stop in Kinnerton, then BSB, F1, and Indy so a full day of motorsports to watch

BSB F1 and Moto GP for me, and I don't have Sky Sports so only see a half hour highlights of Road America on Youtube

Something like a train in the distance or distant drums?

It's them there Zulus. Call for Michael Caine.

I am sooo bad at such dates. Hope you have nice memories.

0400 this morning, its getting worse 😐.
Strange weather patterns according to these posts. We had lots of thunder, no lightning that I saw and not a lot of rain.

I was woken about 0200 by some weird creature calling out. Never heard it before so not a fox or deer. Could't tell if it was animal or bird. Went on for, maybe 30 minutes. Just one call every 20 seconds. Very strange.

Anyway @numbnuts did you tell me what "fish in a bag" is? If so, I missed it.
I am almost afraid of the answer🙂

Morning all.

Awake at 5.30 again. But at least that gave me the opportunity to move the car to block the mystery vehicle (no one can work out which house it visits, but it turns up and stays for days) parking in front of the house.
I know anyone can park there, but we have a big delivery this morning (basically a complete new bathroom) and blocking our gate won't help.

In other news I also set the PC up ready for my wife's online speed awareness - the fact Miss Daisy got caught speeding in the first place, is a glitch in the matrix I just don't understand

I have risen!

Today is NMD - new mandolin day.
