    Was due to be on duty on the Swanage Railway but the Lass has been in hospital all week and hopefully coming home on Saturday  so I'll be collecting her and bringing her home

    Mods Mayday concert in Islington. Disappointed to be missing it, would have gone to the street party at my mums if it hadn't clashed. Hope all watching/going have a great day and the weather isn't too bad (doesn't look great though).
    The thought of watching cabbles, AFKA and aliwibble in concert is enough to put anyone off 😂
    Bloody cheek!
    At the moment, the odds are that I will be alternating between being curled up in a ball on the sofa, and emulating OohAah after a particularly extensive chocolate binge. Which will make for an interesting answer to a future "what are your memories of King Charles' Coronation?" thread.
  • Gone to Prague ... the thought of running (and walking) a marathon on Sunday should take my mind off events back home 🙄

    Travelling to Cheltenham while it's going on, trains will be quiet - that's the theory anyway

    Literally anything else... prepping for moving house 
    Hope you didn't sell your current house house just to give you something to take your mind off the big C on Saturday?

    Playing football from 10am-12.30pm so I will miss all the ceremony stuff. A strong rump of the group I play with are attention seeking contrarians so it will be a good laugh with them watching them try and out-do each other!

    Roads should be clearer (?) So that's going to work nicely for me.

    After that, I'm going into London to meet a good friend, which will be nice, because although I don't have any royalist feelings, I do quite like seeing the hustle and bustle of London on an "event" day, and seeing lots of happy people heading into London enjoying a bank holiday weekend! 

    I wish it was on the Sunday because it would be a perfect opportunity to get a really long and safe bike ride in, on a day where I had no other plans.

    At Newmarket new Track for me although the weather looks dire, so imagine I will sink a load of pints and lose a lot of money!

    Myself and Mrs TT will ride our new Indians in the passing rain to Bodmin, 60 miles e/w for their first service. The following day were off to France for a week with rain forecast for the duration. 

    The joys of motorcycling.

    Scout Rogue and Chief Dark Horse for those who might be interested.

    Dropping catches off Paddy's bowling. Definitely up for another honesty moment on the boundary

    won't be watching the coronation. (I probably wouldn't watch it anyway. missed the jubilee and the wedding) but another reason is that I have a conifer blocking my satellite signal and i'm trying to find someone to cut it back at a reasonable price. fat chance of that. Though if i was really bothered i could watch it online. 

    anyway, popping over to a mates for some drinks later in the day. Not because of the coronation but because, well, its a bank holiday and i have a voucher to use at Tesco's.

    The missus has gone to bloody Butlins for the weekend and our cricket ground is still more of a swamp than a field. Watching the County Championship and football in my pants it is.

    Painting the repointed wall with graphene paint unless it's pouring with rain, in which case I might have a little drink for the coronation 
  • I’ll be starting the day in my tent in The Mall. I’ll let you know how it goes from there.

    Have you tried St Martins? They do very good work with the homeless.
