TT CONFESSION
I've never been to the Ace Cafe.
This despite loving London and working in London for many a long year and passing the Ace Cafe every day when working in Wembley Park. Tis a Trivial Disgrace.
When I'm older and even more infirm perhaps the TT Massive could take me there in the bathchair as a sort of pilgrimage.
I have, I've never been to the Ace Cafe.

You know what they say, one volunteer is worth ten pressed men.

Good morneve, one an dawl
I say "good", but I'm not in the sunniest of moods, on account of having to collect my sister and brother-in-law from Bawnmuff Airpawt at bloody 10.15 this evening. And my experience of the afore-mentioned air terminal is that planes rarely arrive on time on a good day. Harumph!
Meanwhile, I'll spend the day being in a bad mood, and probably kicking small animals*. Oh, and watching the Grand Prix, which is actually taking place on a proper circuit - I do enjoy Imola, a Grand Prix circuit needs to have changes of gradient, and some challenging corners, unlike places such as Jeddah and bloody Las Vegas. I blame Formula E, which always looks as though the tracks have been constructed from stuff nicked from motorway contraflows and Heras fencing. Next thing you know we'll have the London Grand Prix, 75 laps of Park Royal Industrial Estate (just off Hanger Lane Gyratory, near the Ace Cafe. Hateful place. (Park Royal, not the Ace Cafe).
Anyway. I wish you all a better Sunday than I've got lined up.
Harumph!
*Not really.

Good afternoon you lovely people!!
I have returned from my jaunt out to Bicester for the Chasing Cars coffee run, there was a very eclectic mix of cars there, ranging from good old run of the mill stuff, through sportier hot hatches, through the usual collection of BMW'S and Porsches and right up to some very expensive exotica!!!
A few pics from the morning.

Me neither Your Lordship and if i'm brutally honest, i have better things to do with my time than visit it. From what i've been told, it has gone right downhill since it's glory days when it was re opened.
That is always a danger with these pilgrimages, snowy. The saving grace for me, for any special journey, comes from a conversation overheard at a Joe Cocker concert towards the end of his life. One concert goer lamented Cocker's inability to hit any of the difficult notes. His accomplice replied, "Yes, but you know what he means."I would at least be able to say I'd been.

I am sure there are lots of things i've done that i've forgotten about but when i write it down like that, i've done quite a bit
I’ve been reading through the Sunday posts and have reached the conclusion that most of you have been spending too much time in the sun without your handkerchiefs on your heads.
Today I’ve
Been food shopping
Watched the GP
Cut the grass
Cleaned the sun area
Put the outside table back together
Put the light eggs out
Cleaned the windows
Cleaned the starling ste off the patio and drive
Cleaned the bat ste off the patio area
Cooked a chicken roast dinner
Changed the bedding
I’m now watching the golf
Busy day for busy people.
