Morning. At this rate I will be up before I go to bed before long

It’s back to overcast and muggy this morning and there are thundery showers forecast for the afternoon.

Morning all, we have rain and lots of it.

I have risen!

Chucked it down overnight here in Poshshire.

Good morning, we have light rain from an overcast sky. My knee twinge isn't as twingey and my Garmin tells me that I should be fully recovered from Sunday's race in another six hours. Shed painting is oh hold until the weather improves so I may rearrange under the stairs as a Brompton garage.
Have a peaceful day folks ☀️☕️👍

Back from a sweaty 4 mile shuffle. Pathetically slow as usual but at least my time on the same route has got slightly better.

Off to get freshened up.

Good morning all.
It's still raining.
Haircut day today. I can't do anything outside because of the weather, so a visit to the barbers and maybe a pint or two in the Mitre which is close by. Then I'll watch the Giro.
By the way, what does sithi stand for?

Cooooeeee. 13 deg and damp here. And I can see a heat haze over the forest.

Stay safe peeps

It’s most inclement outside, which is irksome.

Morning all

Chucking it down out there at the moment.
Mates are coming over from Minehead at 10 o'clock and we are all going over to Wellington to meet up with the rest of the gang from Winscombe for lunch.

Good morning all, murky and wet again here.
Had a good day yesterday, a rare morning of sun. Did an enjoyable mtb ride with MrsFoE, through the Penicuik estate and back through the Pentlands. 23 miles of decent dry track with only a few short stretches on road. Belatedly heard my first cuckoo of the year. Got back about 2pm just as the weather changed.
Watched the shenanigans in the Giro in the afternoon then in the evening paid our second visit to the theatre in recent weeks. The play this time was quite a gripping reworking of Macbeth, “Macbeth, an undoing”, and another enjoyable experience.
I speculate often about moving to somewhere with better weather and better cycling but every so often a day like yesterday presents a good case for staying put.

Thought my Garmin was goosed as it wasn’t charging but it was just the contacts had got a bit dirty so a quick clean with a toothbrush and charging ok now.

Ooohh, hark at him! Someone's been at the thesaurus overnight.
