25km at the Forest of Dean cycle centre yesterday with friends. The weather was glorious and trails were mostly dried out miraculously.

I'm feeling it a bit today though, I've really let my cycling fitness drop

... to add to this back when you posted it.... I'm not sure if it's still the case, but it used to be that if someone served the military, then they were fast-tracked for citizenship. There's one or two conditions involved, as it affects how, when, and even whether someone can be deployed (or not)....but ...

... and I jumped into a freezing cold waterfall pool in a little cave area. That was some of the coldest water I’ve been in! Being a 34 deg C day we were all dry 3 kms later when we got back to the car. Then had kebabs and pizzas for lunch 😂 17037BAE-71D7-42F0-A9CE-DC36C671E4FB.jpeg 38A051C5-4ACA-48AD-B283-1322703BB14F.jpeg ...

... I cordially detest with a passion. I did get a lot done though, and both the front & back yards are no longer the tropical rainforests they were yesterday. Quite happy with the results. TBH though, I wish someone would just lay two big patches of asphalt down & be done with it forever. ...

... life! I love animals in general, but Birds of Prey have always been incredible to me. We took our boy to World of Countrylife in Exmouth today and were lucky to have this Bald Eagle (Baldric) brought past us while viewing a beautiful Snowy Owl. I just asked the falconer if I could take a picture ...

Wow Cav' that's a stunning raptor. Didn't realise you were into (feathered) birds.

Very strange idea. I thought these were banned

Those outfits were terrible

A bit of a sad day. Both of my female guppies were dead this morning. All of the other fish are fine.. Water parameters are unchanged. There's no signs of damage or infection. There are a lot of guppy fry in the tank. I can't work out if they both ...

They come back to you yet ?

I did think of you when I was typing that Monty

Although I have 4 at home too now, they were half trained by the time they arrived

I wouldn't beat yourself up over it. What could you have done if you were there? I obviously went to the heartless bastard school of parenting :D I had no qualms going away for work or holidays and leaving my kids behind, knowing I wouldn't be there if something ...

I thought you were done with offshore work....or nearly done with it....?? I bloody wish. But you are right. We thought we’d be done by now. But production tapered off its decline and levelled out a bit shy of our minimum - time ...
