Not sure if I want to know how hot your hole is

Made the mistake of having a go at tidying the garden, bad move, way too hot.

Hot and sweaty it is

Brilliant move while I was in the garden, pulling weeds among the roses at the back, didn't notice one of them was a small nettle! Reached down, grabbed it . . . . multiple expletives. Fingers are still tingling.

Been to the seaside with a coach load of school kids today, 8 coaches in total, red hot day, trouble is half the contents of Tynemouth sands come back on the coach . I had to clean my own 55 seater,all the seats needed hoovering ,as did the floor, then had to mop the floor, wash the outside, ready for tomorrow. Time I got done ,I was sweating buckets, then had to set to and do the vehicle Im using tomorrow, as the manager had other work he needed to catch up with. Just clocked out at 5, and was talking to another driver about how to get to tomorrow's pick up, when the call came from the garage, " can you clean this other bus for tomorrow please", another coach had broken down , so manager and director had to go and sort that out, so clock back in and spent another 45 minutes cleaning that. Was going to cut the grass myself tonight, but too tired, forecast for rain tomorrow, so cant see it getting done before Saturday now, then I'll probably get roped in to work again. Should really make the effort, as had 2 weekends off to go to club meets, and one to go for my PCV medical.

Good evening Richard, what a thoroughly unpleasant day you have had. Why not treat yourself to an early night. I am back home, everything went off better than I had expected

Thats good to hear Phil

, thanks for letting us know.
Not too bad a day really, stopped down there for about 3 and a half hours, as did another 5 of the other coaches, so we all spent the day together, went for a coffee, walk along the beach, while the other pervs eyed up the talent. I walked on ahead, cant be bothered with all that, a couple of them are in their 30s, another in his 50s, you\d think they would have grown out of that by now.

Fiona is out at a work retirement do tonight, and its still quite warm, so don't think I will sleep well. Down to the ferry port tomorrow for my pick up.

Evening all, wind has picked up (outside, not indoors) but no sign of any storms yet......

Great to hear all went really well Phil

Thank you Richard and Jeff. The thunder storm, the rains, the lightning came and went

With today's operation, I was impressed by the professionalism and care the doctors and nurses gave me. I am a lucky guy

I said to Jessica it was something we would never see in Kenya, having an early night.
