I'm just about to do a short tour of the Southend Seafront Cycle Farcilities and have a swim, since high tide is 8.33p.m. at Southend Pier. Then, eat spag bol.

Done that. Now beer.

They've told me that they can see you.

A quick fettle before a ginger bike commute tomorrow.  Also, preening in my awesome new hat. :smug:
It takes blood and guts to be this cool but I'm still just a cliché.

Taking a short break from bathroom cleaning.  We are to be visited by a selection of the Barrovian relatives and half of Denmark the mother-in-common-laws nearest and dearest who are arriving from Denmark this weekend, and experience tells me that it is in my interests for the house to be relatively presentable when they get here, or they will heap yet more crap onto the teetering piles of crap and we could end up with a critical mass situation.  As far as I know we only have one extra body staying here, and the rest are B&Bing or caravaning.  I, meanwhile, shall be on a tandem on my way to Dunwich  ;D

Plus, in two and a bit weeks time, some very good friends are voluntarily coming to stay in our house and look after the cats and the kids for a week whilst me and dearly_beloved bugger off on hollibobs.  Since they are very organised and tidy people it seems a bit mean to not at least try to restore some semblance of normality to the matchbox, which has never quite recovered from the year I naffed off up north to do a PGCE.  6 years ago.

Housework is so frightfully dull, isn't it?  And please tell me that small boys learn to aim, eventually....

Feeling  :smug:
I can comfortably wear a pair of trousers that have been too small round the waist for 2 years. ;D
In fact I feel very very  :smug:

I just put the charged up battery back in the car, and checked that it would start and so forth, so I can take it for it's MOT tomorrow morning.

In the process of doing that, I found that one of the wiper blades completely dismantled itself.  A trivial thing to change, if Halfords were open, which they're not now. >:(

I also had a brief brain fart where I thought that the courtesy light switch had failed, since I couldn't get the light to go out.

Of course, closing the doors helps make this happen.
Actually, it is rocket science.

Would I be right in thinking that you don't like car-fettling as much as you like bike-fettling?  I just get that impression.....  :)

Listening to thunder and rain, and enjoying the "rain after a long dry spell" aroma that is wafting into the window. Sure beats the smell of manure -  thank goodness for a change in wind direction!

...two new wiper blades and a bulb (somewhere in the rear, although I thought that they were all OK when I checked last night) cost me £10 on top of £100 for a service and MOT, which wasn't too bad.

I just got my ears lowered hair cut, and forgot to pick up a prescription from my GPs.
Actually, it is rocket science.

Packing for a tour and completely failing to find my sunspecs and a blue top.

My ability to lose things drives me nuts.  :(
