Closed my final ever twitter account on that absolute cesspit of an app, that horrible gargantuan space nonce isn’t getting another single bite off me and i sincerely hope it breaks him forever (buying Twitter that is, not my leaving).
Last session in the gym before our week away tomorrow. I don’t normally drink in the week, but as I’m now officially on holiday, it isn’t mid week any more, so I’m enjoying a beer or two.
Bought flights to Santander and out of Bilbao for next week Double bonus wife’s birthday and missing old jig ears hat fitting ceremony.
A few random pictures from my last couple of days in Scotland… A horny local girl Did I Say it was a bit nippy They made me stand on the log cos I’m the only one with any hair left …well they’re all old and smell of wee !! Just stunning scenery everywhere ! Spent a bloody fortune but a great 6 days, about 1,100 miles by the time I get back tomorrow
Tested positive for Covid, banging head raised temperature and general feeling of fatigue The joys of travel eh.
Sorry to hear that, I had it a few weeks ago, it was far worse than the last time I had it. Heard on the radio late last night that there's a new variant about.
In response, Prof Spector, the founder of the COVID Zoe app, tweeted: "XBB could be the new variant to watch out for .. in 2023." XBB.1.5 is a mutated version of Omicron XBB, which was first detected in India in August.XBB has been found in at least 70 countries, according to the World Health Organisation, causing surges of infection in some parts of Asia, including India and Singapore, in October. Studies have found that the strain is capable of evading antibodies from previous COVID infections or vaccinations.Concern about XBB.1.5 is largely based on how it is currently spreading in the US and it has not been listed as a variant of concern by the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA)
There is certainly a "healthy" spike in cases here over the last two weeks or so. Some folk seem to get off ver lightly and some get hit quite hard. Everyone I know who has gotten COVID recently has been double vaccinated and double boosted and all have had Covid at least once before. Seems we are possibly headed down the same rabbit hole as two year ago...
Sure did @Gandalf ..when I was up on that log I noticed that all the “boys” were sporting “ Chimp’s arses” …right bunch of baldy nappers !! But as usual, it wouldn’t be a bike trip to Scotland without a visit from the puncture fairy Took a couple of attempts to fix this bugger! Got back home at about 2:30 pm this afternoon, we covered 1,276 miles in total, basic shot of routes… It will take me an age to get the bike clean, it’s absolutely mingin !
Checked into Holiday Inn at Channel tunnel for trip to Luxembourg tomorrow, 2 nice new multi V4S here too.
The only difference being that this time, anyone with a modicum of intelligence won’t be suckered in to the total bollocks that it clearly is.
