Does he look that daft ?

to be fair - no-one looks THAT daft!!


Although until this season I would have said "finish above Liverpool" but that is looking a decent bet now
you would have got good odds before they started playing the first game!!!

A friend of mine bears an uncanny and unfortunate resemblance to the Andrew formerly known as Prince and hes getting a bit fed up with the pith taking. I've told him to grow a beard or have a number 1 haircut before he stabs someone.

Has he tried staying out of sight in his car by sliding down in the back seat???
maybe some red contact lens ??

55K ride and gardening in the afternoon so now knackered.
Still wine and cheese tonight and a film.

No chance.

Evening folks would've gone for a spin today but because i have some raspberry canes on the way ive been busy preparing the bed for them. The site is next to old greenhouse foundations and is a gravelly/rubbly mess shifted about 10 wheelbarrows of gravel over to a neighbour and now have a heap of rocks and boulders to dispose off. Anyhow im nearly done and just need to incorporate some bone meal and compost. I guess its murphys law as where the posts for straining wires are to go had ***ding great boulders in the way but got them out phew!
Ive read that raspberries are shallow rooted and as long as theyre well fed should thrive even if soil depth is only around 12-14 inches...hope thats so

Good day to all.
A half decent kip has been kipped and I am now sat with a coffee. I will no doubt go back for an hour at some time.
I want to nip out later as I need a small folding step. I struggle to reach the opening windowlight in the kitchen as it's over the sink......I can just about open it but can't reach to close it again. I found that Homebargains do one for £3.99 which will do the job.

Morning campers 👋

Good morning all. It's still dark, but i can hear the breeze blowing out there.
The cats have gone out, except for Harry who has come in. We have a camera in the back room, and when we watch it back, he takes himself off out of the catflap at around 4am.
It has been raining overnight, and more is forecast for today.
I'll do an hour or so on the turbo later before watching the debacle that is Spurs, who are still home to Arsenal. I am not confident. Enjoy your day everyone ☕️

Watched the Ireland game in a pub in Digbeth. Great atmosphere and really friendly crowd. We were sat in the " snug " and the landlady popped her head round the corner to say " there's a pot of stew on the bar if you want some " 😎

Morning all

Great day at the Classic bike show yesterday, saw lots of interesting and desirable machines, saw Sammy Miller give a talk, and came home with a bag of 'swag'. I always seem to go to these shows with around 2 grand in my pocket, and come away spending 100 quid - I'm thinking that I've already got everything I need.
Off to the Railway for lunch today.

Morning.
Bit brighter so I've gambled on putting a load of washing on in hope I can hang outside.
Bit of a shoot weekend all told. Situation with Dad getting grimmer by the day, rugby was a shambles, cat sick on carpet. Those are just the highlights.
