The Retirement Thread

[SpokeyDokey]

I haven't got a TV, so it's either on my desk top with a 32" screen or on my tablet. Desk top is best.

Do you still need a TV licence to stream that?

The sun is out now and it's warm.

Seems wrong to me. It always used to be televised and imo should still be.

It's being televised on ITV4, but not live.
All races will be covered.

It seems that slingin a non tubeless ready wheel across the garage will not turn it into a tubeless ready one that seals nicely. It seals fine around the rim, but 3 valves and lot of bodges later it will not seal around the valve. I have never been one to get angry over something like this, I have also never thrown anything across the garage, oh well time for a coffee.

A mostly dry 2 hours on the bike this morning, caught one heavy shower but not too bad. Returning home the roads were awash, apparently I’d just missed something much heavier and with added hail.
Feeling a bit bereft this afternoon without the Giro to watch.

Not long until the TdF though.

And the double is on...

I have been weeding in the garden, I have painted the big shed and started sanding down the small shed. Had enough about 3:00pm and came in for a snack when Mrs Tkk reminded me that we're going to see Jasper Carrot at the Tivoli in Wimborne this evening. Hope I don't drop off during the show 🤞

Not too familiar with Halse but it's not far away from Bishops Lydeard that's got a couple of decent pubs and a brewery.
The Farmers Arms at Combe Fleury has a good reputation.
Most of the pubs around here are quite decent, to be honest.

He's a Blues supporter. I remember watching him in the spoof TV series " The Detectives " where he worked a dig at the Villa into one of the episodes 😄
