So we are all set for an absolute front porcher from today. Who’s doing what in this lovely weather? Currently a bit breezy and overcast in Shoreham by Sea but it’s warming up.

I’ll be up on the downs for a twenty miler I think and maybe a bit of body boarding (in the Sea).

You?

Got my 9 month old grandson for the morning, so me and the missus will be taking him out for a few treats. Might go to the Lagoon and have a mince along the seafront for an ice cream, maybe have a coffee somewhere. I've got a big posh hire car at the moment as my motor is in the repair shop, so she'll probably want to go out for a SPIN somewhere in that, before I hand it back next week. Then I think it'll be an early evening BBQ in the garden to round off the day, possibly with Germany v Sweden on the outside TV in the background.

Its all go.

Just got back from holiday in Mexico so quite acclimatised, although just been for a short run and it's a bit betty swollocks. Golf tomorrow, long run Sunday morning on the Downs then a barbie I would think before a grim RTW on Monday.:tantrum:

Sounds good, apart from those on trains.

I’m coming to the end of my four days off and will be back on nights as of tomorrow evening. I am dreading trying to sleep in the day. But making the most of today and tomorrow day.

Rubbish, those on trains have never had it so good in hot weather with aircon in the carriages.

Back when the carriages were slam doors, the Littlehampton train from London Bridge coming home from work, sat in the sidings all day with the windows closed, so that when it arrived on the platform, it was like getting into a hot sauna fully clothed. Plus the only windows that were openable were the sliding ones between the seats, or the door windows. There was always a scramble to get the seats on the left which was the side away from the sun.

Going to the club in about an hour for some Furphys pale ale, haven't had a drop in over a week, bloody flu.

Glad you’re up and about. Enjoy the beer!
I’ve rather chunked it for myself. I work four on four off and I’ve gone at it like a sailor on shore leave on this break for some reason. My excesses over the last two days have rather ruled me out of a third night on the sauce.

There is air con, quite right but there are also other people. Other people are not good in this weather. Also a lot of people have taken their kids out of school today apparently. “Too hot for the little dahlinks to concentrate” , did you ever! Shoreham is infested with them today. They’ll be in the trains off to legoland etc. Hell. On. Earth.
