One of the boys was out on the bike today and came across this, look carefully there are 8 vehicles in the photo

Obviously the flow got him, but look at all those tracks across the field, that’s not the right of way 🙄

Having spent yesterday shouting at the computer due to stoopid bloody paperwork issues, that is now sorted ( still a lot of unanswered questions but you cant submit the paperwork online until 48hrs before travelling so you discover their stupid website at that moment and they dont work weekends so you can’t ask anyone wtf they mean)  our documents have apparently been validated, which is a bonus!🥳

today i am mostly winning the “Who’s got the biggest top box” competition and then having a snooze 😴

I’ve filled in Passenger Locator Forms 18 times now 🙄 I am sick of them but once you’ve done it a few times you’ll see they aren’t asking the same things multiple times (which is definitely how it feels to start with), they’re slightly different questions that really nail down where you’ve been within a country and for how long, how many counties you’ve crossed, whether you’ll be arriving at the actual place you’re staying on the same day you’re arriving in the country, if you’re not going straight back and have other destinations on route etc etc. 
 

My major gripe was that you couldn’t complete the UK (flight) PLF form until you could enter your seat number and budget airlines won’t let you check in until 24 hours before the flight unless you pay for an allocated seat (£££) so if your printers pissing about or your connectivity is up the spout that was way too close for comfort!
But I see they’ve just changed it to remove the pre departure test hassle (videoing yourself shoving a cotton bud up your schnozer and sending it to some poor sod to have to watch you coughing wasnt fun) and they removed the ‘your seat number’ part on the form-  haha up yours Ryanair  😆

I've got no idea!

But whether I would....or whether I wouldn't......it'll still be more miles than you!

The eldest is 4 in August Dave.......and we've never seen them. Never even got an invite to their wedding 4 years ago either.

You know the problem (it is in our case and I suspect in a lot of cases)......younger blokes today are fucking pussies.

Men's men don't seem to exist anymore.....they're all androgynous examples of what manhood should actually be.

I told my boy to ditch the bitch in Poland in the early days, she's fucking bipolar and fucking nasty. But he's so weak he just soaks it up and even stands by when she disrespects us.

If she starts her shit when I'm there she'll get a fucking straightener for sure. Obviously I want to see my grandkids, but I ain't going to take shit from her just to have that privilege!

Know what you're saying but we're all different. I'm really not sure more backbone would help him because she's just an angry nutter. My Andrew is a softie and always has been but I'm a "you made your bed type".  He hasn't asked my advise because he knows he'd get something very much like what you'd say I'm sure.:classic_laugh:

If I opened my mouth and it stopped our access in some way it would destroy Mandi and the son.

And you can't help or support them if youre cut out of their lives. If it looks bad from the outside imagine what its like behind closed doors 😥

Letting rip on what you think doesn't get you closer to getting them away from it, it gets you pushed out cos your a threat. And who are you satisfying with that stuff anyway, theyre not gonna walk away especially if they have children. You just arm their nutty partner with the weapons needed to nail the door to you ever more firmly shut.

I know this from bitter experience, its and extreme example but nobody liked my sister in laws boyfriend and everyone told her so but she loved him and defended him like you would. When she finally realised he wasn't right in the head she felt she didnt have anyone to turn to. He stabbed her 9 times. 

Being a mans man doesn't come into it its love, dominance and abuse. Happens everywhere.

Wow thats beautiful.

Thanks. There was plenty of interesting driftwood on the beach, along with loads of seashells,  so we had a good time checking them out. Mandy liberated some smaller bits of driftwood and some interesting shells, which are resting out on our patio table at the moment! 😉😂😂

Finished my weekend by doing a bit of ordering, the solar thing is essential but looks good, I dunno 🤷‍♀️ the multimeter I spent £££ on because it does data logging and it will do all the recording and send it to an app, hopefully helping me avoid the mathematical car crash that surely ensues if Im involved in the calculation and.. I just wanted it 😂

Are you getting them delivered to you in Spain? If so, watch out for customs charges! People here in France are getting fleeced large sums of money by the customs and delivery people.

Amazon Spain has the same items for the same moola, I just linked the uk site for ease of reading. But thanks for the heads up 👍 

I don't see the advantage of ordering from the UK unless its a specialist thing you cant otherwise get.. like curry powder 😆

Well I've taken the unprecedented step of moderating myself after I went on a rant brought on by the situation with my boy in Poland!

You'd better send me the Incomprehensible Warning PM @Clive
