Good evening you lovely lot.

We've had a fabulous evening gathered here in Buxton, the 5 of us met up in the Whine Bar, no I didn't type that wrong, it really is called the Whine Bar, where we have enjoyed great company, good food and a few drinks!!!

The Brassington is due to commence at approximately 1000hrs in the car park outside the Old Hall Hotel, and follow an approximately 90 mile route.
thumbup Enjoy!

I have never heard Ms Swifts voice.
But I have seen her likeness in the papers.
Why does she go to work in a swimming costume?
Does she expect to get wet?
Tis nought but cheap sensationalism.

I worked for her mum briefly. Taylor Woodrow.

Have a great time Bobbers and anyone else attending The Brassington.

I look forward to seeing pics, especially if you get the Trivial Tenuous Link picture wink
Indeed.

Do let yourselves down with seriously poor choices!

Sorry I couldn’t make it.

You're implying I was interested in the less interesting element of the clip.

I see that now.

I came to a realisation today, I genuinely don't know ANY Taylor Swift songs!
My Daughter didn't believe me, so played some Swift songs...nope. It was the first time I have heard them.
My expert review...totally generic 'music' that I won't be rushing out to buy on Vinyl any time soon.

I'm 51...I think?
Truth time, I really liked Shake it off, until the vicious bh started being a serial shagger and then using the break ups to to create songs to make herself famous.
But then she was also a victim of Mr Charisma himself, Harry Styles who only shagged her to further his career after he left that cheesy boy band thing.

So she probably thought if its good for a bloke to do it, it’s good for me to do it too.


Enjoy the Brassington

The phrase 'enjoy the Brassington' is not an invitation to further your career by engaging Mrs Brassington in a meaningless romantic entanglement.

It almost undoubtedly wouldn't.

But fun to watch the attempt and the consequences (from a discreet distance obvs).

Morning all.

Today now dedicated to helping my son move into his new flat, rather than cavorting in the Dales as I had intended.

What have you found in your belly buttons this morning?
I bet a few of you haven't even looked yet, have you?

Don't worry, there's still time for a quick shufty. smile Sometimes it's surprising what can be found there!
I try to keep mine spotless, 'cos it's the ideal place to keep the salt when eating celery sticks in bed, :lick

I had a really enjoyable evening with Bobbers & Co in that Holdall Hotel, but unfortunately we drank all the Neck Oil they had, so I had to switch to the Guinness.
Yes, real beer! beer With my condition! eek

I have surfaced following a successful Elbow Test ( -ve ), scoffed my weetabix with maple & pecan crunchy clusters, and a handful of Haribo Starmix, so I've just got to do me teefs and set the controls of the old C-Ma_ for Buxton Spa, stopping for a fill of Tesco's finest diseasel en route.

Have a gnice day, yawl, C U in a squeezy plastic lemon!

Lord Bobbers of Brassington, good morning. In the Welshbeef thread a poster remembers the days PHers had their usernames with their PH badge adorning their vehicles and claims it doesn't happen now. You could disabuse him of his error.

Good morrow fellow Trivialities everywhere wavey
Hello and welcome to a grey and overcast Buxton!!
It precipitated last night, if the wet ground is anything to go by, hopefully it will dry out a bit before we set off at 1000hrs!!

Had a good night's sleep after a few beers last night in the company of glenrobbo, but as he's already said, we drank the place dry of Neckoil!!!

Morning. I got bitten by an insect on the golf course yesterday I remember brushing it off my arm. This morning I have grown another muscle sized lump and it’s very itchy.

Anyway back to a late entry here is your weekend reminder.

Gud moaneve Triviallists, wherever you are!

I myself am a tome, pondering the day ahead. Plan A was to do what I do most Saturday mornings, which is to rise early (stop sniggering at the back!) and head for Lymington, and the Saturday market, via Beaulieu. Avoiding the early morning patrols of the Donkey Squadron.

Today, I overslept, so I'm on Plan B, which is "make it up as you go along". So I'll go for a stroll, and think while I walk, because I can multitask.

Then it will be coffee time, and possibly more thinking. And procrastinationing.

Let's see what happens.

Those of you embarking on The Brassington, have a loverley day, and don't forget to post photos.

Pasta la vista!

Morning all

An exciting day awaits, a trip to the recycling centre/ dump followed by furniture shopping. Thank goodness we are out to a restaurant tonight for a meal to save the day.

I may give the Abarth a bath later too.

Enjoy your tour Bobbers

Cheers

Thanks, GOG. Sonic came by yesterday to tell us.

Sad news.
I really need to buy a new Hamster for my internet connection.
I sent that message about 14hrs before it appeared on PH!

The messenger had to stop overnight in Stony Stratford.

It's all too PC now. In our day we would have ridden through the night and not spared the horses.

Morning all,

I've run my first parkrun since tearing a hamstring a month ago. Just had a slow jog round, and strolled the last section of uphill as I was too hot, hungry and hungover.

Little planned for the day save pottering round the garden, and possibly a trip to the dump.
