Morning everyone.

Yesterday was lovely at the beach. As expected, very busy, but we managed to stay a safe distance from anyone.
Enjoyed stretching the GT's legs and lots of attention on route as usual.

Isla was absolutely over the moon.

Today will be hovering the sand out of the car :rolleyes:
Then putting the maserati script on my newly painted calipers.

Have a good day all!

Hoping the weather forecast of rain tomorrow, to end by 2pm is correct, as I'm having a BBQ...and I've purchased 2kg of Pork Belly and another 1.5kg of Beef mince.

So we definitely needs friends round in the garden to help eat it all

Today the Pork Belly will be put in a sous vide

Pork belly is the only reason I have BBQ's (it's a pain to do in the oven).

What time do you want me round?

All correct but not all winners; Dem needs to avoid being forced to do a weeks work in three days (that's my domain!).
Unfortunately it has been already mentioned to me that for the remaining “days off” I have to be working with laptop on etc so limiting my mobility

Looks busy already, and the shortcut looks good. (Except for the good people of Apulduram, of course.)

Well we are just packing up from a fantastic day, yes there was a little traffic that added 40mins to put 1hr45min normal drive time but the prebooked parking worked perfectly and facilities were all up and running, the fish and chips were surprisingly good.
Given the nightmare that has been Bournemouth today, we made the right choice going to a beach that is open, organised and ready for visitors.
was amazing how many people who ignored all the signs of PreBooked access only blah blah spent 45 mins queuing only to get turned away at the gate.

Morning, all. Today's word of the day is petrichor. One for all your Greeks out there. Also thunder, rain and lots of both. And ibuprofen. The kick-*** 400mg stuff. Bloody neck back shoulders. Anyway, the rain's due to stop and the sun to come out later, which will be handy as the garden cushions are going to take a bit of drying out.

Today is many calls and a visit from a man selling carpet. Sadly he's not Turkish. I've felt lately like a need a little exotic in my life and the Irish mobile carpet man doesn't quite cut that particular mustard.

Morning,

Mums 70th today, so will be in their garden for a 6 person 'party ' hoping to dodge all the showers.
Have a good day all.

Love your supermarket game. Posh Ocado delivery for you, and then a root round in the Tesco bargain bin for the outlaws.

Fraid so. Nearest Waitrose is simply miles away, dhalink! Mrs C and I have simply no idea what we'll do when Ocado move to St Michael in the Autumn. Still we have this simply charming au pair that can take the Micra out for us when she passes her driving test ;)

Morning all, late one this morning, gave it best around 3am, couldn't get to sleep, back on it at 7am as client is collecting reports shortly and my PC is not playing ball running reports for some reason!

Running on empty now...

Need to get out and about later but first a shower as I'm stinky in this heat, I feel like butter left out on the sideboard!

Have fun all...
