Morning all,

Trip back through the Alps from Como to Basel (in the end) today. Looking forward to it but mixed feelings as it means we're heading home.

Morning all. Hope the call was worth it Chris. WFH too then picking up a coughing and poorly nipper so no camping this weekend. Spend a few minutes remembering the brave, and not forgetting those who sent so many for so little.

Very much so. It's now a weekly fixture!

Finished just in time to catch that ceremony :( Hope nipper gets better soon

Morning all, Buxton to Leeds, Rochdale and back to Buxton to collect my brother 2pm then Nottingham for another job and down the A1 to South London to collect mother's car before finally getting home. The 156 got a bit rattly yesterday so I put some oil in it; 4 litres of it!!! Why do we love Italian cars when they do this sort of thing, no oil needed last week.

Have fun all...

Morning everyone! I got to chase my shadow on the ride to work this morning... yes, I had a shadow today!

I'm rather enjoying my front garden at the moment - I cleared it and planted it up as a rose garden back in the autumn, and now all the new bushes are thriving, and most of them are in bloom. The aroma is wonderful - I only chose varieties with scent I can detect before I'm even close to the flowers.

Happy Friday!

Morning. What a lovely day you have, me and Mrs C love the lakes. What's the weather been like?

Get ready to return to grey and wetness, rubbish summer!

As of next Sunday I have garden in London and I'm looking forward to pottering in it. And to the apples in Autumn. Might need to find a steam cleaner, the pathways are a sad dark green at the moment.

Boody annoying Drew; need a big tractor to lift those tonne bags!

Hope you Uncle improves. I'll wave to you on the way past tomorrow :) got to get back so can't stop.

Thanks OB!

Farmer has a very nice telehandler, but willing as he was to help, I'd have had to wait until today for him to pop round to move them for me, which would have meant leaving the Maser and Susie's S3 parked in the field. I can't justify having a big piece of plant here 'just in case'.

Morning all. Office today, and have to deliver a laptop back to a supplier.
Would normally take the Maser as it's a cracking drive down the Romney Marsh, but it's a bit wet and damp, so will see if it dries out first.

Nothing much to report. Have a good one all.
