Nope not accurate. 😆 But the good news is the Germans and the nudists no doubt further up have legged it back to their hotels. And in another 15 mins it’s going to be glorious.

So AI decides itself, just because it can, to hack into the Australian governments health website without the knowledge of the company that created the AI agent!! Scary stuff... 10 years from now we’ll be fighting Arnie robots in the streets..

Morning. A bit jaded after going out on a school night when getting up at 5am for work. So it’s a day of finding imaginary faults in the plant room, and ordering a McMuffin at 7:30am, and generally staying out of public view. 😀👍

Morning. To take me to the next level of at ease conversational Spanish, for when I travel the length and breadth of Spain in my retirement years 🤞 , I’ve arranged one to one Zoom lessons with the Spanish lady who teaches a weekly class at the leisure centre. 😀👍

Morning. The sun is peeping through, my three days off start here. I think it’s a days hard ride on the moped round Bowland over hill and dale, with a pub lunch thrown in… Make the most of it before we all get annihilated by AI robots 🤖

Morning. Our usual McDonalds breakfast lifeguard orderer has had the cheek to take today off. So I’ve gone and ordered one myself today off Uber Eats. It’s all very exciting. 😀👍

Morning. It’s my weekend to be in the Brittas Empire. As I sit here pondering tea tonight. My clan are all out , so I’ve opted for Herta jumbo hot dogs, witn onions, sauerkraut (NYC way), and a sprinkling of currywurst powder (bought in Berlin) with ketchup and mustard to finish. 😀👍

Things I was frightened of as a child. Cloud 9. Sontarans Doctor Who Sleeping Two giant poodles on my paper round that chased me everyday. Proper cricket balls, corkies, after getting hit in the face in the school team.

Morning. So two of our lifeguards have been away kayaking in Mallorca. They should be on earlies today, but thanks to the cyber attack yesterday (conspiracy theories abound) they are stuck in Palma, so muggins here is going to don the yellow and red and head in to do a bit of OT on the pool. 😀👍

Morning. After a lovely long weekend, my car is fixed, so the van life era comes to an end. Pooch must have walked around 22/23 miles with us this weekend. Despite him being 11 and a 1/4 we kept an eye on him and he was fine. Plenty more life in the old dog yet! (Pardon the pun) .. 👍😀

Parker’s Arms. Fabulous. The Turbot whilst it may look like the creature from the lagoon was superb once I’d figured out how to eat it 😬

Modern cars are shite. Mines PHEV. If you’re driving it on electric then decide flick into Cupra mode put your foot to the floor, like I did, the engine becomes hybrid, but because you’ve been driving electric, the combustion side is cold, so gets too stressed and blows a piston or coil etc. 🙄

Well I’ve got my courtesy car for the duration mine is in the garage. I said we’re going away so need a decent size replacement. So they’ve given me a VW T7 multi van. Despite initial shock, I’ve got to say it’s ace.Giving me thoughts of getting the camper van version, retiring and touring Spain! 😀

Right. We’re off to Bowland tomorrow for a long weekend with pooch. Lots of yomping and a visit to Parkers Arms for our tea on Saturday. But the car has thrown a wobbler. Just been taken into Cupra Liverpool on a truck now waiting for hire car to come. Always something to try foil best laid plans 🙄
