After having two days off cycling, it was great getting out again! I did just over 36 miles, which I am more than pleased with!

Then tomorrow, I hoping to cycle to work again! Need to get my bike miles up and the car miles down!

I’ve been single for 7 years!!!

WOW! I’ve now been single for 7 years! Not that, I really care! Boyfriends are way to much like hard work!!! Can’t be doing with getting told what, I can and can’t do!

Also got a list of way to many things that my next boyfriend would need to enjoy! Yes cycling and wearing Lycra is on that list!

Video: Emptying restaurant bar 1 @ theDogs

Time-lapse video of just some of the Peterborough Greyhounds restaurant staff, removing all the stock and glasses from restaurant bar one!

Since in the morning, the whole bar will be getting removed! Ready for a new and bigger bar, going in it’s place!

Another cycle back from work!

That was another good cycle back from work! Now cycled to and from work twice this year! So already more than last year! Last year, I cycled to work twice. But got a lift back from work with my bike in the car!

So by cycling to and from work, just two times, I’ve already saved around 96 car miles!

You can check out the statistics and the route I took @ www.strava.com/activities/674380960.

7 year ago, cycling from Glencoe to Killearn

On this day, seven years ago. I would have been cycling all the way from Glencoe to Killearn! On day five of the End to End cycle.

So a number of years, I filmed part of the same route from car! I filmed the part between Glencoe and Tyndrum.

UK TV programmes to watch this week : 13/08/2016

Great Canal Journeys (Channel 4/HD | 8:00pm to 9:00pm | Wednesday 17th August 2016)

Timothy West and Prunella Scales embark on more spectacular canal journeys. This time they travel to Venice. The journey begins 14 miles west of Venice on the Brenta, a river that was first canalised in the 13th century. Lined with palaces that were once holiday homes for Venetian nobility, they follow the route that Casanova and Lord Byron took to the city. After crossing the Venetian lagoon, Tim and Pru arrive at St Mark’s Square, where they escape the busy Grand Canal and discover the tranquillity and beauty of the smaller canals that tourists rarely see. Their journey’s end is on the marshy island of Torcello, the place where Venice began.

Skies Above Britain (BBC 2/HD | 9:00pm to 10:00pm | Wednesday 17th August 2016)

Flying into Danger. The first episode explores how our skies are safeguarded. Air traffic controllers deal with an unidentified aircraft flying across Gatwick’s flight path, and the RAF scramble a typhoon jet to intercept an unresponsive plane. We follow the RAF pilots training to fly Britain’s front-line combat aircraft. Trainees face a gruelling series of tests, including being subject to high gravitational forces in a centrifuge and experiencing rapid air decompression and training for emergency scenarios. In Humberside, the helicopter crews of HM Search and Rescue are often the only aircraft that fly when the skies are treacherous. We follow the crew on a dangerous mountain rescue, flying through thick fog to reach an injured hiker. Elsewhere, two vintage plane enthusiasts explore their continued passion for flight, despite having faced personal tragedy in the air.

Full Steam Ahead (BBC 2/HD | 8:00pm to 9:00pm | Thursday 18th August 2016)

Historians Ruth Goodman, Alex Langlands and Peter Ginn explore how the Victorian railways created modern Britain. The team head to the South Devon Railway to explore the life of the branch line before the Beeching cuts of the 1960s. Ruth discovers how the railways came to the rescue when a deadly disease wiped out almost the entire stock of London cattle. After undergoing an eyesight test, Victorian-style, Peter joins the footplate crew on the South Devon line. We meet Dave Knowling, a steam-engine driver who shows Peter how it is done and why it is so important to keep one eye closed when shovelling coal. Working on the Victorian railways was dangerous – 500 lost their lives and 16,000 were injured in one year alone. Ruth discovers those who lost limbs on the Great Western Railway were catered for by a special prosthetic limbs workshop. Alex and Peter take a trip to Strathspey Railway and find out about one of Scotland’s most lucrative exports.

Amazing Spaces: Shed of the Year (Channel 4/HD | 8:00pm to 9:00pm | Friday 19th August 2016)

After months scouring the country for the most ingenious and eccentric sheds, the overall winner of Shed of the Year 2016 is announced. But first there are two more categories to explore. The Budget category includes a colourful beach house made for just £20 and a shed that actually earned its owner £100 in profit. The Cabins and Summerhouses group features a classic van and a dream structure in an allotment. Next, George and his fellow judges must choose one shed from all the category winners across the series to crown as the overall winner.

Bar one @ theDogs, is getting bigger!

That’s another part of the bar 1 refit done at work! They’ve moved the wine fridges and handheld tote machines. So by Friday week, the old bar will have been fully removed and new bar in it’s place!

Will sort of miss the old bar! Been working behind it now, for something like 13 years!
