@csb I haven't been before, but a couple of friends went to the last one and said it was amazing. I'm really looking forward to it! And taking the weirdest combination of stuff I've ever taken to a festival...!
I will be trying to avoid any Jubilee celebrations, its beyond my comprehension that people support this...so I'll be riding my bike, same as usual really.
Definitely avoiding all celebrations. We're going to sod off somewhere in our converted transit for the first time in a fair few months as it's been used as furniture storage while we moved house. Planning on avoiding the lakes on a long weekend and going to the peaks instead, what can go wrong eh?!
I'm riding the Trans Scotland Trial on my roadbike, I'm sure it'll be fine
riding bikes, going for hikes, drinking beer and talking bollox, probably 🙂
Thursday, I'll be heading to the Isle of Man, then spending 4 days watching the TT. Never been so I'm particularly looking forward to it. Travel back on Tuesday. Going on the motorcycle too.
I had planned a long weekend finishing off the patio I started last year,......
Those plans have been scuppered by Mrs F
Ummm 🤔
The phrase '2 birds, 1 stone' springs to mind... 😉
I’ll be working like a Japanese prisoner of war.
But a happy one.
Going to the Zoo on Thursday and supposed to be painting the outside of the house on Friday/over the weekend. That will probably turn in to riding the bike around Macc Forest and possibly Marple/Mellor
Dunno.. Some work, some beer/BBQ (weather permitting) and some bikes.
I hope it rains!
I'm working 😀
Nothing huge.
Last few days with my folks in Swansea then we're getting the train to London on Tuesday where the in-laws are taking the kids for a few days while me and the misso go to Brighton for a couple of nights, then back to London to fly out to Barcelona for ten days. (we don't go back to Oz until September so there's more Europe to come but I figured you don't wanna hear the rest....)
Out on my bike and avoiding any jubilee nonsense.
Fortunately the jubilee doesn't seem to be a big thing here in Spain. A long weekend would be nice, though. Enjoy!
we don’t go back to Oz until September so there’s more Europe to come but I figured you don’t wanna hear the rest
You should start a separate Aphex 2k tour of Europe thread, your antipodian view of things would be interesting.
Currently on the ferry from Shields to Amsterdam, heading to Spa in Belgium for the 24 hour motorbike race. Lots of beer and bikes!
Normal working days ...
Sleep more.
Riding bikes, visiting colleagues/friends for BBQs, mist coat on the plaster in our kitchen refurb before the units come in on Tuesday, gardening. There is a street party on Sunday on our lane - tbh it is just an excuse for a get together. We are a really close street, so it’s more of a post covid/lane get together that has some bunting. I’m looking forward to it tbh.
me and the misso
You sound like you're 'O' sick already.
Planned? Absolutely nothing. Awaiting a turbo arrival, so need to have someone in at least for today. Got place to myself for ~24 hours while better half and her sis go to a fancy spa near Liphook. Weather is a bit unsettled, but I'll try to my daily cycling fix outdoors, about to hit 7 months daily streak. Sadly, Royal Mail decided we weren't worthy of a non-service day on Saturday, so I'm back in work for that one.
I've got COVID again so will be locked inside for the next 5 days. Might try to get a slow and quiet ride in on one of the evenings but that's it.
SFO - rest and relax.
Aunt n uncle are up tomorrow so I've been tidying and gardening as I've been doing building work house was a shit tip and the garden was feral
Once they've gone biking.
Need to sort the gravel bike out. Putting tubes back in it. ****ed off with it not sealing tubeless.
I also intend maybe to get the BbQ out n have some beer
Im rejigging the workshop.
Had soundproofing put in and new lining paper for the walls prior to putting up strapping for boards. New work benches and now to decide what machinery goes where.
Also buying a new dust extractor and air cleaner. Should have had that sorted long back, but time now to get things right.
Just finished a week of updating local traders' newspaper ads - "Oooh could you just add a Union Jack on there please?" - despite aforementioned ads already being stuffed like a Wallaby's pouch after giving birth to triplets.
From this moment anyone saying Jehovah Jubilee will get stoned a stern look.
Scheduled to fly to Majorca so probably spending the entire weekend in Manchester airport
