What the feck have you done today?

I only wear Bridgedale Socks, quality stuff, some are 20 years old, still fine, go in the dryer too.
In the winter the summit version , in the summer the lightweight ones
Just checked out their website. Blimey, they're not cheap... But then again if a pair lasts 20 years it'll be cheaper in the long run than keeping buying chuckaway ones.
The heavyweight knee-length ones I'd want for winter working are £48.50 a pair.... But the £6.50 ones I got from Sports Direct have worn out after three years.
I like that they offer various lengths as well. Run-of-the-mill everyday socks are invariably too short for me. They rarely come above the tops of my boots when working or riding my bike, which is annoying. And draughty.

I may have to invest.
 
My eldest is pregnant as well, due in April.
She rang me tonight to tell me that the pram ensemble she has ordered has been reduced from £1800 to £1400.
I think that’s a hint that I’m £400 better off!

Just try some Summits for the winter, just one problem with Bridgedale, you will never want another brand again lol, I buy mine online.
I even throw them in the dryer when you really shouldn’t,
But even that they survive with ease.
Most comfortable sock ever👍
 
Had a day off . Absolutely pissing it down here most of the day and its coming down heavy as fuck now.
. Although the job i was to do is indoors i didnt fancy the 45 min drive there. Can do it in 35 in good weather but the roads are sketchy with road works and only just been opened due to slips. This is the sort of weather where there very well could be another. That and im working indoors but prefer to do cuting outside, also there is no power so no lights and i have to run a lead about 30 mtrs to where im at.
Anyhu, istayed home, did some work on a set of windows and made pasta sauce .
Been raining hard for nearly 3 days now , vegies are going nuts!!!
Unfortunately so is the grass.
 
Have made it to work today! The sun is out, in-between showers..
Think there is still rain at home though.
Glad i didnt head in yesterday as this morning i past 3 slips that had been cleared up. Nothing huge but 2 of em were around blind bends so you would probably hit the pile of rubble and clay before you saw it, that or possibly have to turn back.
Looking at the missing dirt from the bank face id guess each would have been a good few cubes of shite.
Roads like this dont compare to anything i saw in the uk. You have near vertical banks carved into the clay above the road being held together by rocks and what ever plants grow there. Huge drop offs in some places and no barriers.
