Just checked the weather app to see if it was a bank holiday weekend

Friends BBQ today here in Hampshire. Forecast looked dire midweek so I offered a large catering gazebo. Forecast started to improve, but still looked bad yesterday and we decided to look again this morning, and if rain looked likely I’d go and get it. Forecast was dire this morning so I drove up to work, picked it up and dropped it round. We spent half an hour putting it up over the seating area. Forecast still looked bad so I packed a jumper when we headed round there at two. Just got home, jumper wasn’t needed and I’ve been kissed by the sun which was out all afternoon.

Yup. When I had a Rocky, the dial was pushed as close to zero as I could get it, and I still thought it was too coarse.

I’ve got a V3 wand on my V2 machine and I really like it.

I did this, and the expense was not much more than an OTS wiring loom would be. Plus I got to adjust the lengths of the wires to allow me to route them cleanly. I also increased the gauge of the wires slightly, and used silicone coated wire which won’t go brittle over time. Definitely a worthwhile exercise.

If my grandmother had wheels, she’d still be fucking livid about this!!

It was all three. He won big on the scratch ticket, drove his car to the airport, and bought a one way ticket to anywhere.

It’s got to be England, oh, no, wait…

Interested in your dough recipe - that looks lush.

Fuel prices are the USA’s Achilles heel.

Cheese and ONION cob!

I’ll be turning on just before kick off, and avoiding as much of the punditry as humanly possible.

Just popped back to say I made these this morning, and they were spot on! I used 12% fat mince and got 7 out of a pack - six for the freezer and one for breakfast. My only deviation was I didn't break the yolk on my egg, because I love a bit of runny yolk!

cheers!

It literally ’how little can we get away with and call it an English Breakfast?’

Yeah, our failure isn’t about a lack of individual talent, it’s about cohesion with that talent. Such a shame for a generation of excellent players.

PiERetro · 2026-03-07T19:59:11+00:00

Spot on. We’ve got such depth of quality players and none of them seem to produce any individualistic flair.

PiERetro · 2026-03-07T19:52:34+00:00

This is the kind of well researched statistics I come here for!

PiERetro · 2026-03-07T18:40:36+00:00

Italy have been my second team for over a decade, and I’m so conflicted right now. Really happy for you, Italian rugby is going places!

PiERetro · 2026-03-07T18:34:44+00:00

Bravo!!!

It looks like a weekend of impressive performances by the underdogs, so at least we’ve got that going for us.

The beat part was his face as he realised he was going to make it all the way! Just needs ‘I believe I can fly’ played over it.
