The only proof in existence that I wasn't always 20stone of unfit blubber. It doesn't pick me up when I'm low. It's kinda depressing.

Nice turnout for bikes, banter and bacon butties in our little village in Normandy.

Bike day today, here to Cancale, coast road to St Malo, lunch at Dol de Bretagne then a long meandering ride back via Sainte Hilaire. It wouldn't have been quite so meandering if I hadn't taken the wrong road.

Me and my daughter in 2019. She passed away from cancer the following year. This was the last gig we went to together. In fact, the last gig I ever went to.

Just because you call something milk, doesn't make it milk. You are willfully ignoring the word 'substitute' in the definition. If you substitute oil for butter in a recipe the oil does not magically become butter. As you seem happy to accept dictionary definitions, here you go.

I wish that winter would end. This one seems to have lasted 18 months.

This in my favourite that I've taken. I was on a boat in the gulf of Panama and spotted the activity around this shrimp boat.

Looks like a lot of work! Good luck. I just bought myself this before the winter set in. I've only been out on it 3 times so far. It hasn't stopped raining!
