London to Brighton by bike!

So a few weeks ago a group from work decided we would sign up for the British Heart Foundation London to Brighton bike ride, Sunday was sign up day and seven of us, known as the Pharonian Peddlers, will be undertaking this little trip. We have a sponsorship page setup so if I could ask my regular readers, I believe there are one or two, to lend your support that would be great. 

Weekend and boat news

So the boat has it's sides welded in place. The window holes will be cut during the week and the frame for the rear deck will be in place for next weekend. I ordered 150m of 50x50mm planed timber to prepare for the line out and I have decided where I can fit all the batteries, well there are 7!! It gives me a 1000Ah, lots of power! We should still be on course for the engine fit on the 19th March, I do hope so I had to pay for it on Friday, lots of money.

Sunday I had a very muddy walk with the GOC around Great Horwood in Bucks. I have been wetter on a walk, but I really don't think I have every been muddier!

Sunday walk

I had another outing with the Gay Outdoor Club on Sunday. We had a very enjoyable stroll round Bow Brickhill and the weather stayed sunny. Can't be bad. I have volunteered to lead a walk round Wendover in May, so I should get planning or on my past performance of leading walks I will be dashing round the route on the Saturday before!

Enjoying the weekend

Church choir

I joined my sister on Saturday to sing in her church choir.

I haven't sung for six months or so and it was a real joy to start again. I sing tenor which is rather useful especially for local church choirs.

Enjoying a Walk

I had a very enjoyable day joining a Gay Outdoor Club walk at the National Trust property at Canons Ashby. A very friendly group of like minded men enjoyed a walk in some lovely Northampton countryside. The weather could have been better however the company more than made up for it.

Torchwood

Doctor Who for grownups. They said it would be darker and it certainly is! I didn’t really see the need for the amount of bad language, but apart from that I’m hooked. Bring on next week. And I so would like the Landie with the blue running lights on the A posts. Excellent.
