Happy Friday. I'm heading to Upstate New York this weekend to the Baseball Hall of Fame along with two of my brothers and my father. We used to go yearly when we lived in New York but the tradition stopped when we moved. This will be our first visit since 2005. We're all very excited

When the missus asked me if I'd take the MIL's garden rubbish out to the street for collection this afternoon I of course said I would...three flippin' hours it took me. I'm knackered so now enjoying a beer or two.

This weekend celebrating reaching the forth floor. Ordered 6kg of ribs and it arrived to door and was one 6kg rib. Has been fully rubbed and now in fridge before a low and slow cook tomorrow on the Weber kettle. Also got 2kg of Andouille Cajun and Texan Hotlinks sausages. Will be some nice red wines and craft beers to accompany.
Happy Friday

Luckily almost every baseball stadium is new and will provide a great experience. I would suggest you either see a game at Chicago's Wrigley Field or Boston's Fenway Park for a traditional early baseball stadium or you visit a modern park which incorporates the city and provides a modern atmosphere with all the comforts like San Diego, San Francisco or Pittsburgh.

TGIF here ... at home! The Builders next door, and on the outside our house, and in the lane will be allowing us 2 days of peace before they all start again on Monday. It was chaos all week, with at one point a total of 14 vehicles stacked up for about 50 m along the lane, augmented by other drivers ignoring the "Road Closed" signs!.

Yet another holiday here and Monday as well....nae wonder the economy's such a disaster.
So with time on my hands I've got some vacio and bife Americano out the fridge to put on the parrilla. It's a cool sunny day but it's blowing a flippin' gale.

That beef looks mouthwatering before it's even cooked.
Got family arriving back from a holiday in Peru and they're craving some proper Mexican food, so tonight we'll be on tacos al pastor

Happy Friday ! Due to family things it's a coach to Stanstead and a brief kip before an early morning rush to southern France , dashing back Sunday evening. Would have been BA if they had been anywhere remotely sane with pricing

Happy Friday All!
Nothing exotic for me today.
32c at Waterloo, the big M&S is closed until 2023 for refurb (2023!!!!!) and the station full of the rail equivalent of the bucket and spade brigade.
On the plus side, the small M&S opposite platform 18 was well stocked with G&Ts and the a/c is working v well on the train.
Cheers 🍸🍸🍸
