The good morning thread

[Scaf]

Well it’s absolutely glorious this morning.
Just back from 19 miles on the bike (eblike) and I did 16 miles Friday and 17 miles yesterday, not bad for an overweight 58year old who has never done any real exercise in his life.
Me thinks I have earned myself a coffee and a decent breakfast followed by a drive in the Strad.
BBQ planned for lunch time and then pub this evening.
Make the most of the weekend guys.

Morning Chaps and Chapesses.

Looks like a stunning SUNDAY for all... after the ironing I plan to do bugger all.

Sadly I know the evening will be spoilt by the neighbour who will insist on having a BBQ and smoking us out, whilst then lighting the fire pit so we have to close all the windows so not to have a house stinking of his cheap garage wood. I'm sure he checks the wind is blowing in our direction and he knows I hate BBQ smoke.

Sam, you've achieved more today than I plan to achieve all weekend.

Barbecue later.

I agree it should, they are being listed at a significant premium but are actually selling at only about 20% up on pre-pandemic prices. Alex and his lady have been all over the UK in it, to all four corners in fact and have even done the NC500 in it. So he is done with it and wants to move up in sports cars with the funds. He likes the Boxter but coverts it’s bigger brother the 911

I hope you are planning to disown him if he buys either. However, you have to blame yourself for not educating him enough as to the finer points of motoring etiquette. Shocking.

He likes German engineering and Boxer engines in particular; get over it!

Hmm. Does he not find a certain frisson in the uncertainty of Italians electronics ?

Our little street is mostly quiet. But we have one neighbour a few houses away that thinks everyone want to their music all day and night. Not anymore as after several conversations another neighbour sorted it out good and proper. Quiet weekend this weekend.

Fingers crossed Chris.
AC certainly needed in this weather.
Is warranty picking up the bill ?

Morning all, a change of plans today as I have my elder grandson to look after for part of the day. So admin for the rest.

Have fun all…

Sadly not. At this age it's engine and gearbox only. No big deal. It's one of them things.

Hopefully just a gassing up! Is that going to Bentley? On my Conti someone mistakenly used leak detection fluid in the AC. Apparently that's a serious mistake. It was not a cheap fix!

Morning all, a weekend of slowly turning red but enjoyable all the same the right balance of getting jobs done and drinking beer

However cannot decide on exterior paint colour for the house, Mrs Z off to buy more tester pots this morning which at least delays that job for a while

Morning all...its drugs day for me.
Found out a fascinating fact it take 100 blood donors to produce one 35g bottle of my treatment.....there is a very serious shortfall at present of the drug

 

[GeoffCapes]

Morning all. Not a great start to the day, ran out of hay fever tablets yesterday, couldn't get to the chemist to pick up my prescription on Friday, Saturday it shut at 1pm!
Bloody pandemic! Every essential (non-supermarket) shuts their doors early, when everyone else wants to open!
Seen bank opening hours these days???

So feeling a bit meh!

Conference call at 9, and 11, and then the chemist and WFH this afternoon.
