Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.
The village I live in has around 100 people living in and around it. Its more like a hamlet. No shop. No pub, nothing. Mach is the nearest town.

Walked from the square in Wimborne, past the Legion and alongside the Community Gardens. A wonderful area right in the heart of town and run by volunteers. All for a good cause.

Phew was quite warm today certainly didnt need my jacket i carried....though its better to err on the safe side here as weather can change rapidly and fixing a puncture on higher ground with wind chill wouldnt be pleasant. Decided on a longer ride today and did my first 50 miler! Plenty of hills on the route and was starting to fade nearing home with the old legs complaining, will probably feel it tomorrow :okay:

On my ride and in this heat, I see a lot of people with very little clothing on and I was astounded to notice the number of men and women with tattoos on arms,shoulders, legs, chest, backs and I can't help thinking what they will look like in their old age. Personally, I am not a tattoo person and would never have one.

I hate them. I don’t find them in the least attractive I’m afraid. Whatever rocks your boat though.

Not only do we have a pub, but a mate of mine owns it.

Not onky that, but I know he gets his Guinness kegs for free when he buys so many kegs of poncy lager, and this price is reflected in the amount I pay for my refreshments at the establishment.

I've never been a fan of tattoos more so on females

Same here. But, each individuals choice.

They are not cheap.

Personally, being a man, I am too much of a wimp to have one, it might hurt ;)

My gawd it's been hot today!
Spent a couple of hours chainsawing a 12 foot laurel hedge down to half its' height. Managed to do about an eighth of it so far - still, at least I've made a start. I'll crack on with it tomorrow.
Hope to get it finished by Thursday.
