I’m only razzing over to the Oblong first thing in the morning. I’ll be on the road 6:15am to get to my mums for her online Sains. No matter that no one will see me at that time of the morning on BHM. I find myself still overly pondering suitably stylish attire for the said ride. 😬

Plancha!!

Morning. Not exactly cracking the flags up here. But pooch been walked, washing pegged. Espresso doblé por favor.

Cheers. 😀👍

The little fella is eating again. Phew!!

Pooch is on the mend now. Hopefully won’t be long til he’s back to his usual self, loving life! 😀

Jesus it’s been a 7 days and a half.!! What with Pooch nearly at death’s door, so not sleeping most of last weekend. Been on 6am starts all week. Sorting my 93 year old Mum out. My evening will consist of me time, sitting in the garden drinking Vermut Blancos y munching on Gildas and Boquerones. 😀👍

Morning it’s 4:50am and you’re listening to Up With The Partridge on North Norfolk digital FM…

Morning. The weather forecasters are all going into meltdown, if you pardon the pun, about this weekends’ “heatwave” Dark doom red. It’s going to hit 31 for two days down South. Sit in the shade with a cold beer, relax and I promise it’ll be back to pissing down and shite by a week on Saturday.

The Great British Public…Member drying his hair : “Hey mate this hairdryer won’t stop” . ..Me : “OK Let’s have a look, oh yeah that’ll because you need to press the button on the hairdryer handle, to turn it off”😳 Jesus!!! 😬

Morning. Well after being up with Cooper all night as he’s had some sort of allergic reaction to either his medication or his wound, we’ve been at the emergency vets in Huyton since 7am. Knackered . But seize the day, just off to the local garden centre to get loads of flowers and shit.

He’s not happy but if you won’t listen and keep licking your rancid toe then I’m afraid Cooper….

Morning. Im a happy boy today. My semi retirement request has been approved to start on 62nd birthday. Just off to Pets at Home for an inflatable cone for pooch. Then a quick kettle bell work out, outfit perusal, then into Liverpool for a beer and record shop afternoon. 👍😀

Another cruise ship riddled with virus. This time Novovirus. I have to say I’ve never been tempted to go on a cruise and I certainly won’t now. 😀👍

Im such a good boss. One of our lifeguards is back from New Zealand after working on the beach all their summer, needs a damn good haircut and a shave . Anyway he’s on a date tonight so asked if he could finish 15 mins early to get said haircut. Who am I to stand in the way of true love! 😀👍

Poor pooch had been possibly stung or got something sharp pierced in his paw over weekend. He’s been to vets had it cleaned and on antibiotics and anti inflammatory tablets. No dusk dune beach walks for a few days. 😕

Morning. I’ve been plancha’ing for years. Using my trusty aged encrusted cast iron griddle plate, there has always been a problem when doing pescado o marisco. Like whole Seabass crumbling to a mess as the skin sticks to the griddle. Behold the arrival of my new non stick enamelled griddle plate.

Me tea!

Great to see Rayo Vallecano make it to a Euro final. I had a mooch round the barrio last year, proper locals club.

Me and my heavy metal chums are heading to the quaint rural village of Burslem in August for a few pints in the newly opened Lemmy’s bar. 🤘

Right I’m off to vote. Avoiding the two racist parties (Reform and Greens). 😀👍

93…still loves a walk along the prom at New Brighton and a trip to Cafe Creme that still does the best toast on the Oblong. 👍😀

Right. It’s now or never. I’ve waited long enough. Up to the loft. It’s Winter to Summer transition time. 😀👍🕺

Very quiet on the beach today. Just how I like it 😎

C#%ts!!! 👊👊

He loves a train ride 😀👍

Finished product. 😎👍

Last minute sun. Threw a paella together. Bubbling away nicely 😎

I’m in a 60’s mood..

Breakfast batch..

Morning, been in work since 5:15am. Raising pool levels after overnight repair work. The dedication I have to ensure the twirlies can bob around chatting on their 06:30am Tuesday morning £2 swim session!!. 💪

Unexpected plancha’ing….

Please can we have weather like this from now until September 30th..

Morning. It’s a lovely morning to head over to New Brighton to pick up Vespa after its service, and have a lovely ride back to Sunny Southport. 😎👍

Urghh hot sweaty train wreaking of shite weed. 🤮

I’ve opted for linen. Too soon?

Now this is what I’m talking about 😎👍

Observations riding Vespa over to Oblong from Southport this morning.. 1 : Is it National BMW Drivers No Signal Day? 2 : Is every white van driver high as a kite on shite weed, judging by the disgusting stink emanating from the vans I was unfortunate to be behind today.

Someone enjoyed his weekend..

Morning.

Dusk mooching on the Ynys Mon coastal path..

Birkenhead gig Saturday night. Anglesey sunrise Sunday morning.

Great day with my pal…

Cooper not been well last few days. Not eating, the trots, bad stomach sounds, shivering. Think better get him to vets. As soon as we get there he perks up, eating biscuit treats off the reception. £57 lighter just to say yep he’s doing ok now. 😬

My other half is insisting on watching the Oliviers. I don’t mind a musical, but the acceptance speeches are extremely nauseating.

Caz Rock…

I’m having a classic rock moment…
