That'll be around your estate milord?

Indeed.. It's half way down the drive 🎩

I take it that you are not carrying said gate on your back whilst cycling.

Fortunately not 😂

Morning all. Its nice out isn't it !
Been up since 04.00 that is crazy.
I had a BIG roast chicken dinner last night so how come I'm hungry now?

Morning all

More work on the Puch Maxi this morning.
I'll then make a small brass hammer that I've been meaning to do for a while.
Doggie walking later.

Morning.
Lovely sunny day although pretty breezy which is ideal for washing to go out and grass to be cut, less so for my planned ride.
However, forecast rain tomorrow on so ride it is.

Nice and sunny here with a cool breeze.

Will pop up to Sainsbury's and have a mooch then it'll be some tasks in the garden.

Night night all .

I have to say I do understand Drago liking for a Honda cub . Only because I am thinking I fancy one of these when we go down to a one car household especially as I could ride it on my car licence ( 300cc version) . 😀
I know it’s a bit of a abomination to real bikers but it’s just a itch I want to scratch 😂

Yes, I have been fancying one of those too. Not sure I can justify it, given how infrequently I could use it. But, very tempted to

I think I may try and nab a Honda cub over winter when prices are lower. Hell, a new one is only 3 odd grand if it comes to that.

Decent old ones fetch good money as well.

I think Steviein Denmark has a newish one.

I'm always amazed when people say that. I can eat a big meal and be hungry again four or five hours later.

6 mile hilly walk done and just finished beans on toast.

It must be how our metabolism works. When i was lll last year I sort of 'got out' of eating and my daughter more or less force fed me by bringing me tasty meals (she is as good a cook as Sue was) and after a while i was back into eating.
