I don't trust people who won't drink coffee...
What are they running on? Pure optimism?
Suspicious... highly suspicious... :coffee:

G'Day...

0739hrs local over here (yeah, I'm that far east... 😜)
comfy 11°C and sunny this mornin' ☀️
should not exceed 22°C, fine for riding...

ze GF's fork seals are on their way...
not by swimming through the ocean, but by parcel service...
should arrive early next week, both sets of course now... 😒 always good to have some on stock though 🙃
leaves me to use Thursday (a bank holiday) for the job, and we can make the ride the week after... 😎

ze boss-man attempted to kill me last night... literally... 🤬
while leaving the premises on the ST he darted around the blind corner with his bloody BMW X5 Hybrid xDrive50e housewife-tank
at max speed, cutting the corner fully at the curb on my side of the road... 💀
If I'd left just 1~2 seconds earlier/quicker that would have been it... taken out head-on by that 3 ton nonsense of a car...
I was mulling about going back to confront him and quit right at the spot... still thinking about it though... 😒
Ignorant SUV drivers... 💩💀

Anyhoo... its Friday... 😎
Lets not permit some workplace A.H.s to spoil the weekend! 😇
 
Thx Martin, glad you’re still here to serve us!
Djeeeez!

10˚c/50f, sunny, 15mph breeze from south, that’s the preferred direction.

Errands, cleaning, a ride , vino and shrimps later….

Have a safe one!

Good morning everyone

Thanks for the coffee Martin, and I'm glad to hear you avoided destruction.

It seems the clutch on the local weather machine is broken. We're stuck in mid-March with occasional surges to early June. It's 44°F and clear at the moment, going to 71 under sunny skies later. A few days ago we had highs in the mid 80s, and are supposed to reach 80 again on Sunday before returning to the lower and middle 60s early next week. I wish my goof scores were as low as the daily high temperatures.

Speaking of goof that's what's on the agenda today.

Stay safe and well everyone and tell your dear ones you love them. Do it today, NOW, for tomorrow may be too late.
 
Good morning everyone. At least I hope it is.

A frosty and icy morning here, just above freezing. The roof was well frosted and the car's multitude of raindrops and overnight dew were all little bits of ice. I'd have said ice cubes, but they weren't cubes.

Later should see it go up to 12C and some level of sunshine. That'll be nice as the mornings have not been conducive to riding to work, but the afternoons certainly are. First world conundrums!

Hope everyone has a great day.

Obo.
 
Good morning, and thanks for the coffee start, Martin.
Glad you get to see another day...

I's sunny and 34 in MA this morning, rising to 59, later.

Yesterday looked nice enough to sit outside and read, but it was juust cold and windy enough to send me back inside.

Yesterday, the optimist that I am, I went online and purchased next season's ski pass for Wachusett mountain.
While I was waiting at the Rheumatologist, the ski trip leader emailed to let me know that next year's trip to Austria is filling up, and asked if we are interested. YES! So, when I arrived home I transferred the money for the down payment, and filled out his paperwork. I still need to fill out paperwork for the returning Quebec ski trip in Feb.

Today, I'll head out to get another hair cut, and try to get Brenda out for a (car) ride. I suggested Janine's Frosty in Ware, for some ice cream after supper last night, and she said she's up for a mid-day ride, today.

Have a great day,
Steve
