A right now thread

Watched the Honda being ridden away. No longer my bike. I'm without a bike for the first time in a very long time. Going to be a long week... and then I'll get something exciting to ride!

Right now feeling a little emotional. Today would have been my silver wedding anniversary.

I've ended up doing far better than I ever imagined and have an amazing life.

Lots of mixed emotions.

Nice to see a few folk give this a thanks.

Pen had already booked a night with her yoga pals and I had a few in my local.

When we got home, I asked her to just sit here on the patio and talk to me. About anything. She asked some personal stuff about me and Joanne and I answered VERY openly.

Penny lets me still love Joanne. That's why I love Penny so much.

Life sometimes deals you a shit hand, it’s nice you pulled through your crap times and rebuilt a nice life.

Penny is clearly a lovely and understanding person, and you treasure her for this. Enjoy your retirement.

I can understand that one. I sold my bike, as a non-runner, to my next door neighbour. A few weeks later, I was outside, heard a roaring noise (ok, maybe a slight exaggeration), looked around to see a cloud of smoke issuing - and, luckily, clearing - from his garage.

A few more weeks later, I recognised the sound in the road outside, as the bike rattled and droned its way past on a test ride.

Pleased it's back on the road. But jealous and sad that I can't ride it.

To be honest, more like Wagners "Ride of the Valkyries" being a BMW... but I like the sentiment of David's Triumph being heard throughout the land. Hosanna to the Son of David!

Baggy shorts. Not a kilt.

Just finished cobbling together a thermostatic fan speed controller for my Mac Mini.



Those Molex connectors are microscopic, sadly the controller is not so I had to 3d print a hack base cover with a bit more height.



It will end up being a digital video server for my upcoming YouTube channel.

Laid on sofa with a spazzed back in agony.

BSB and WSB keeping me company

Watching TDF absolutely borked after 2 hrs kip and am on nights so may try to kip again later. Sith Hound No.1 is currently on the naughty mat for randomly barking his head off at 1130.

The guilty party........

[weeksy]

Im between the tdf, wsb and BSB, swapping each time.

I'll settle on the tour shortly though

[Yorick]

This morning I woke up not in agony first time on a week. I had an injection in my back yesterday.

So today I got into gear and had a very productive day.

Rewarding myself now with a cold beer on the patio. It's still 28c so rude not to really

I'm not sure if I'd miss 'seasons' and stuff, but sitting with a beer sounds nice of an evening. Whether I could do your lifestyle and in particular high temps all day every day, I dunno.

I wouldn't mind trying a year though to see.

It's around 30c most days in summer. We get used to it and really pleasant. Always a breeze so no problems. Warm evenings are ace. Drops to 24c overnight so no sleep problems.

Winter can guarantee 20 every day.

Rarely too hot. Never too cold.

We've been over several times, usually on the south west by the lighthouse. Also once by the marina.

Yeah I remember. We often pop down for lunch in the Marina. We met Mr &Mrs Gremlin there.

And we love a bbq or picnic at the lighthouse

Double espresso after surviving the madness of the school run... has to be car as wife and daughter, different destinations, so have to double back and do final trip then come back on A2 to Welling as Shooters Hill is heavily congested... tomorrow they take bus/train etc as I am taking bike for diagnostics and service! Yay! Heading out of London into leafy green Kent.

We have the bedroom window open every night unless it's blowing a gale or temperatures below zero!

This lighthouse?! Should have been there this weekend but not going whilst I have quarantine on the way back. Our friends are there house hunting and won't be coming back - they've already arranged all the stuff they need to do. We'll be back out there again soon, surfboard and bike in the luggage as usual, so that we can leave it in "our" new garage and begin our own house hunt.
