Good morning all. Not much happening this weekends bit of gardening today if the weather holds off. Good to see the sun yesterday.

Morning all. Some training first thing, then some chores (including changing the filter cartridge which is always 'fun') and breaking down some wood before, hopefully, a pleasant glass of wine on the decking with the fire pit.

Have a good one, all

I dont believe for one instance thats Worthing , Not a single piece of seaweed :think:

Absolutely Worthing, the other photo I took was of the 10-ton excavator tracking along the low water, moving rocks back up the beach to repair defences.

Have fun all...

Morning friends. Attending/speaking at a politician's town hall this morning. Then going to a couple of farms to retrieve some fleece and check out some Suri females. Then dinner with the girls and my youngest son. And finally being dragged to a ballet by those same aforementioned girls...

Good morning all. Went for a walk down to the river bank in Chepstow yesterday around midday. A bit of fresh air would be good for us and then home for gardening…Nope…Got to the pub on the river bank and as the sun was out thought we would have one drink. Stumbled home at 5 o’clock with a very red sunburnt head.

Morning. Going to help clean up around the close today with some of the neighbours. It's nice to get together and some physical work will be good.

Then dinner and a glass on the veranda I think :)

Morning all, a kitchen floor to tile (well part of it) and then wash the SZ and Fulvia for a car show tomorrow.

And there's a GP and Moto GP to fit in somewhere too

Good morning everyone from a scorching Brands Hatch. Today, I'll be wearing suncream and a hat..and shorts. I, too, caught the sun yesterday and my forehead is rosso trifonale...

sad day as the family gather to remember my late mother in law who died last September, but whose birthday was last week.

So we are off to a local beauty spot where her ashes were scattered, for a nice family walk, then we toast her memory with a glass of champagne.

Sharing my morning with @DLax69. Sampling the delight of Houston airport Marriot and the lovely airport, having overnighted en route to Belize.
Much consternation about over weight luggage. it seem you can take as much cabin luggage as you can possibly carry and take up as much room as can be squeezed into the seats but your checking back cannot be more than 23kg leaving the uk and 50lbs leaving the US! they were quibbling over 0.5 lb ffs! But rules are rules so we just sucked it up and have it all in hand luggage!
Two more flights and a 4x4 transfer and then we can relax....

Morning, Eb and Newton and Loz and Chris...and the rest of you layabouts. Have been drug into a meeting with a community group at 13:00 today, attending with an elected official. Otherwise overcast and intermittently rainy...so the rest of the day will be spent smoking a gigantic slab of ribs; some grocery shopping; and perhaps a few minutes of reading a newspaper. I should reply to some email, rather than waiting til tomorrow, but not sure I can.

Also...HOU is awful, though not as bad as the NYC airports or the nightmare that's ATL...or Logan, which is categorically the worst thing I've ever grappled with for air travel. Which is saying something if you're a veteran...
