Squirrel 5,180 Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 More of what I did yesterday resulting in a lot of pain today. Went to the races to waste some money gambling. Something I rarely do. It was planned as an all day pissed up event with a few cheeky bets on the side. Budgetted myself £150 for the day including drinking and betting money. 1st race, bet £10 won £30. Thought nice start, lost on the next two races. 4th race won £60 and in the final race won £20. Came out with a profit of about £10 including what I had spent on drinks and food whilst I was there. We then went out in the town afterwards. Spent the lot on tequila and rum. Oops! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zztop911 1,609 Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Got up early and put my old truck on the lift. Changed engine oil and filters, changed fuel filters, changed tranny fluid and filters and rotated the tires and inspected the brakes. A nice productive morning. 4 Quote I only grow in living soil!

zmurko 7,622 Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 Tried to survive another day from hell. July's been awful so far and its not looking good for at least another week. Not your ideal inside temperature: Think that's 89 for you NA folks. Does anyone from up north have a spare room for another month or so? I see some lovely below 20 degrees C weather in Scandinavia.

Jaggy 2,811 Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 89 degrees is nothing. But if you don't normally get that kind of weather, I can understand your pain. Is there humidity involved too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zmurko 7,622 Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 I dont mind that kind of temperatures OUTSIDE, but definitely not pleasant having them inside an appartment (it gets really stuffy, since opening a window makes things even worse). Think it was around 36/37 C outside today (97 F). Quote S U N D A Y R A C I N G L E A G U E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustHatched 12,103 Posted July 19, 2015 Author Share Posted July 19, 2015 Last few days here have been 90F with 85-90% humidity.. what a treat.. SO far today I made a 300 mile round trip to go pick up some flowers that Rose needed for a funeral at 9:00 tomorrow morning. Yesterday I installed a pool that she bought. 1 Quote The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

This time of year, my buddy and I would work from 10pm to 8am out in the shop in Phoenix with a huge swamp cooler blowing on us. It was quite comfortable, even though temps never got below 90 outside. Edited July 19, 2015 by zztop911 Quote I only grow in living soil! Because Fat Buds Matter!

Pb76 3,951 Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 It's been almost a month since I last went out on my bike. A month since I tasted those sweet crunchy flies, felt like my lungs have collapsed and my heart is gonna burst out of my chest. So off I went.......normally I have a good idea of where I'm headed and how far I want to go, but for one reason or another today was different. Anyway, at 13 or 14 miles I hit the wall, not an actual wall (or even a fictional wall like the one that kept the wildlings seperate from the rest of Westeros) but an imaginary wall which, technically speaking, means you're knackered and your body is saying "let's just sit down and have a nice cup of tea". I kept going though (I had to, I was miles from home) and eventually clocked just over 20 miles and it took me just under 2 hours. Not that impressive, but I am old, lazy and unfit, it was predominantly loose gravel with some killer hills and it was 2 hours non-stop (that's plenty of excuses). For the stat fans(and in case a IRL 20mile bike ride is next weeks crew challenge.... 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
