Tiggie Posted March 20, 2022 Posted March 20, 2022 Spent the morning playing around in the shed, tidying, sorting etc. Weather feels nice enough now to spend time in there without coat and gloves 1 Quote
dynax Posted March 20, 2022 Posted March 20, 2022 Just got back home kettle on for coffee and cake. 183.4 miles ridden today, should sleep well tonight 3 Quote
dynax Posted March 22, 2022 Posted March 22, 2022 Currently planning a ride out to the Lakes this Sunday. Thinking about going to Bowness Pier, then from there travelling clockwise around Lake Windermere, grab some dinner then catch the ferry back across in time for afternoon tea before setting off for home again. I am expecting the whole journey to be about 12 hours with stops, will probably be leaving home about 6.30-7.00 am 4 Quote

Tiggie Posted May 20, 2022 Posted May 20, 2022 Working weekend and then flying to Toronto on Monday!! (consider this my notice of holiday @Stu ) 1 Quote
Gerontious Posted May 20, 2022 Posted May 20, 2022 Tonight marks the start of my working week. fri, sat, sun, mon. finish 8am Tuesday morning. Im ready for it, stayed up late (for me) last night and was up very early, then back to bed for 4hrs. just chilling out now. After this weekend, just 7 more shifts to do. 3 next weekend and 4 the weekend after, then off until 1st of July!! whoopee. In other news, my new credit card arrived today. I've got a Halifax Clarity. (as recommended by money saving expert) which I'll use sparingly each month.. but Ive got it mostly for touring. So, it's for buying fuel when on tour. My usual card adds a fee every time I use it abroad. Not much, but it just adds to the already high cost of fuel, unnecessarily. No fees and no interest if paid off in full, which I usually do anyway. So, as per usual for me, a weekend of working and sleeping. 1 Quote

No fees and no interest if paid off in full, which I usually do anyway. +1 on the Halifax Clarity. I too use mine for all card purchases when abroad, fuel, meals etc etc, due to the lack of fees, plus they give a decent exchange rate so don't try to recoup the lack of fees in a sneaky manner. And likewise I just pay it off as soon as I get home Edited May 20, 2022 by Yorky Quote
