Re: The All New Megathread

If it wasn't for the buds bursting open into leaves on the lilac you'd swear it was December: cold, blowing a right one, and pouring down. Great start to the long weekend...

Re: The Veg Plot.

Was hoping to get my onion sets and parsnip seeds in over the weekend but it's touch and go thanks to the forecast. Fingers crossed.

Re: The All New Megathread

It was a bit cold and very blustery but, as today is the only day for two weeks with no rain in the forecast... Hugh came out of hibernation! Just a ten mile circuit but enough to:

Re: The All New Megathread

Re: Replacement car tyres and tyres labels

The real world difference between A and C ratings will not be noticeable to most people, so I wouldn't sweat it.

Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?

As it is getting close to end-of-hibernation day for Hugh I have fished a box out of the understairs cupboard. It's been there for three months since I bought it in the slack, ie cheap, period of the...

Re: The All New Megathread

No rain for us today, thankfully, as most of the bits of Oxfordshire I go past on my way to work are still underwater, as they've been for weeks now. Thankfully most of the flooded roads are now...

Re: The All New Megathread

Pretty drizzly on and off all morning and still lots of flooding on some roads, so may be another week or two before Hugh pokes a wheel out of the garage. Getting itchy feet to be riding again I must...

Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?

Cold and foggy getting to the Ford dealers for 8 am today, but a caff breckie was a nice consolation. Went for a wander to kill more time and can report that the Thames at Marlow looks very angry...
