It's all about the pizzas and beers

Finished a bit early today so managed a couple of hours in the workshop
Hope everyone is doing well!

Raining here now

I forgot to say this morning that the "Wednesday weigh in" figure was 12-6-2.
I am really pleased with myself for getting this far. That's just over 35 pounds of lard removed from my previously corpulent carcass.
A bit more to do yet, even though my better half has declared that I am starting to look "scrawny"

The valley of horses... still a nice place to pass through. Normally go that way in the old landrover heading towards Newbury.

Any shedupdates today @DanClarke ?

Last working day of the week tomorrow.
As a Manxman I've taken Senior Race Day as a holiday regardless of what our supposed Government says.

Bed time

Not yet... just 10 more minutes!!!!

I used to have a sticker on my old land rover saying just that! It was certainly a lovely valley but I left over 25 years ago so I expect that it, like everywhere else, has changed. The main problem was the strings of horses going along the roads to and from the gallops - very temperamental little things they were!! I think they have now been diverted on to tracks through the fields. Next time you go, look out for Eastbury!
