Could've, should've gone for a walk today but I was/am too engrossed in The Poppy War by R.F.Kuang on my Kindle.

Lazy (but happy) bugger!

Hope you are all having a good day especially Paul on his fancy new bike!

I looked his bike and thought "its ok if that's all you can afford but personally I'd get a decent one' :smile:

Hi folks :okay: very springy [is that a word] here in Brora. Went for a spin and had a vague feeling i had forgotten something...so stopped and ****er i forgot my tool/spares/tube! I havent had a puncture for4 or so years but Murphys law would insure i got one today, I cut the ride short at 12 miles as it wouldnt be that far to walk, guess im not an optimist :rolleyes:
Arriving home there were 2 lovely collie dogs outside my house, where did they come from? a neighbour pointed it out and the collies obediently followed me to a house with a open gate and a small child [who had probably opened it] . Got them home safe :okay:
 
The week-end was mostly spent erecting this;

Plus replanting and tying in the plants to go up it.

Today have dug up a straying bamboo and more replanting.

We are staying at the Holliday Inn near Birmingham airport. We need to get up at 5 am tomorrow to take the car to the car park and then a shuttle bus to the airport.
We are taking off at 8 am so my phone will be on airplane mode for a week.
I shall get back to you all on our return on the 21st.
I trust you will all behave during my absence.

Are you saying that you will be going cold turkey from these forums for a week?
