I was just thinking about west reservoir, for swimming and thought this would be worth checking out. I haven’t owned a triathlon suit in years. I thought, maybe I should just get one for swimming as it’s lightweight and perfect for summer riding or riding to venue and back

David Dimbleby during the live broadcast of state funeral last year.
we do pageantry really, we also do hypocrisy really well too.
I really can’t be arsed about the coronation or the royal family.
The appeasement to offer us an extra bank holiday.
The feel good factor to celebrate in the midst of economic horror for many.
Couple that with the expectation that some will drink excessively for three solid days
When our NHS is in dire need of financial support for key workers

I’m sure it will extend into the evening

After a strong amateur period, he was the first Irish cyclist to make a mark as a professional rider in continental Europe. A late-starting but naturally talented rider, he spent most of his pro career riding as a domestique for team leaders such as Jacques Anquetil, and Anquetil's deputy Jean Stablinski. He came 2nd (to Stablinski) in the 1962 World Road Championship at Salò, Italy.
he admitted after the race he had sacrificed his chance for Stablinski. The Irishman said: "I'm not supposed to say that I helped Jean, but he's the best friend I've got in cycling and godfather to my son, Pascal. So I couldn't very well go after him, could I?"

They certainly grabbed my attention, albeit through a shopfront window. I will see if I can retrieve any photos (without monsters) to share. The images were very playful and I suspect there is a tradition of art project for kids to let their imagination run wild. Especially because the Bay Area experiences a lot of sea fog which adds to the drama.

Really interesting compositions, great colours, you paint like a pro..
-
This is great! what a view. I know this bridge. Sadly, my daughter is leaving Bath and I didn’t visit enough
-
I love these!! Thanks for sharing
And reminds me of some artwork I saw in San Francisco a few years ago. Basically iconic photographs across the Bay Area, Golden Gate Bridge, Downtown, with Godzilla, the Kraken, King Kong cartoon characters emerging from the sea.. very playful and inspired by children’s imagination.
From memory, photographs were blown up to A2 size, framed, characters were painted on glass overlay..
Was that you?

I wouldn’t say nice or hip and I haven’t been there in a while. but I always bought from the Camden branch, when I was running regularly. It is important to get good advice though and a shoe that fits your running gait etc.

He joined a small cycling club, St Brendan's, attached to St Brendan's Catholic Church, Coolock, when he was 16 and took part in races of about 20 miles that the church organised around the city streets. He came second in his first race, riding a "scrap" bike with a single fixed wheel that led his pedals to bang the road on corners. The winner had a specialised racing bike.
He joined the Southern Road Club when he was 17 and, on a racing bike, won the Grand Prix of Ireland run over 50 km in the Phoenix Park. The club broke up soon afterwards and he joined the Dublin Wheelers, one of the most active clubs at that time, in March 1952.
That summer he won the Mannin Veg, a race over one lap of the TT motorcycling circuit on the Isle of Man. He also won the Dublin-Galway-Dublin two-day race, winning the race back to Dublin in a sprint.

Was at Canary Wharf watching the 4hr pacers passing through, marathon runners all with smiles still, crowd and sound system creating a great buzz. It’s 15 years since I ran my last marathon distance.. I vowed I wouldn’t again, but just seeing everyone gives you that ‘what if.. and never say never again’ feeling..
Best wishes to everyone running today

WOKE: journey of a word
Matthew Syed traces the origins and evolution of a term that's become synonymous with our era of angry debate.
Once a watchword for African Americans in the early 1900s, 'woke' is now used as an insult across the political spectrum. As the word has spread, what people actually mean by it has become less clear than ever. In this series, Matthew follows the evolution of 'woke' through five key stories.
In this final episode, Matthew looks into the actions of Governor Ron DeSantis, tipped by some to be the next President of the United States. The politician has labelled his state of Florida as 'Where Woke Goes To Die', introducing a 'Stop W.O.K.E.' bill aimed at reducing the spread of identity politics in education and the workplace. Matthew hears from Sam Rechek, the student who has successfully challenged the bill in the courts over its restriction to free speech. DeSantis is just one example of the embrace of 'woke' by the political right. As the word appears commonly in the media today, Matthew considers its multiple meanings, including whether it corresponds to a new set of ideas on the rise in society.

I planted four pyracanthas in 2021 to cover back fence. Which only gets direct sunlight from about 6pm during May to September. all but one plant has established well, with wire training. Intended as a security barrier. In time I will cut the training wires. Let my neighbour replace fence panel there after.
