The first snows have arrived..

 

[Espresso]

Saw this the other day in a ratty car park. Real bush, excellent artistic addition. The word needs more gigantic hedgehogs.

To be scrupulously honest, that's not my photo. I did see it, but I didn't have my phone on me. This particular photo comes from the artist's Facebook page, which I can't sodding find now, to credit him. I'll have another look.

What the actual hell is that it’s absolutely terrifying? Is that real?!!

They look like goose barnacles - never seen that many in a cluster though!

My daughter said it looked like the start of a Dr Who episode. They are goose barnacles

Last day of dad school - big one went back on Monday, little goes back tomorrow. It was cold, and the rain got a bit lumpy a couple of times.

I washed the fucking thing, first time since I bought it. In fact, first time I washed a bike since I was a kid, at which point we used to take an abnormal pride in washing the poxy things...

Out on a country ride at this time of year, it should be caked.

Never been up it. Been past it hundreds of times, even worked nearby for a few years....THE Quality Street.

Same here! I've driven past it countless times but I'd never notice what it was called. It's only now that I'm trying to find cycling routes which avoid roads that I saw the name. The North Downs Way passes through it. Although it's only a footpath down from the church to Quality Street I thought I'd try cycling it. The NDW then heads west (just before QS joins the A23) past the cricket club and then over the golf course towards Gatton Park. Again, this is only a footpath but it looks like cyclists use it anyway.

Years ago, when I lived in Sutton I took a ride down the 214 to Reigate and raced down Gatton Bottom to Merstham, full lycra, no helmet
just trying to see what speed I could hit. I remember being aware of cars following me but everything else just flashed past. Totally mental
looking back, but hey.
