The weekend thread

Recommended Posts

It seems like the heat is arriving with a vengeance here in Portugal. Tomorrow we're supposed to be facing 38º and over in the interior, which doesn't suit me as I'm meeting Sofia's Triumph club for a ride with a sleepover in the Douro. It'll be blistering hot and my car's AC would feel a lot more like an adequate choice, but we can't all be like @Six30.

 

There's going to be gin tonics by a swimming pool too, so I went shopping.

I just hope it's not too unbearable as I've not gotten heat yet this year, just now coming back home the ride was coldish and wet with thick fog.

What are you all up to?

There will be shopping as always.

Mandi will be checking everything charged and packed ready for the trip to Copenhagen again and I'll have to watch F1 and spend the week by myself.:dancebanana:

We have been clearing up dust, dust and more dust,  the builders took out the chimney breast upstairs and downstairs yesterday .  I have some Murphy's stout and we'll be having a curry this evening and watch the Champions league final.

1971 just rang and said could it have that fire back please

Baxi Bermuda with a back boiler . It was here when we bought the house 35 years ago and has been 100% reliable.  I bet the new Worcester combi doesn't do as well .

Funnily enough there was a Baxi Burmuda like that in our house when we bought it.  Donkey's years old but totally reliable and proper furnace, made the house very toasty.     We got a.Bosch/Worcester Combi to replace it.  Now 25 years old and still going strong but I do wonder for how much longer.  You will save a lot on gas though with you new Combi.   😉
