Couple of hours horizontal in the sun, then a rush across Crete to Chania airport! Epic drive up the mountains and done it so often, we don't need sat nav! Back in Retford for evening so might get a couple of beers in the Brewshed! Tom is trying to get the live feed ofvwhat he is up to in America sorted so may get a watch of it. Pike's Peak was mentioned at some point! Enjoy your Saturday all, Buoy, Earn, Mew.

Was going to say, my old fleet was 'any driver, any age plus sdp'. Cost a chunk as things go but was so much easier to not think who was going where and what in! Mark's comment about reading the signs is so true. My Land-rover was half the price of the tippers as they could go on an ag/forestry classification, but the AstraVan was right dear even though it was doing no real work,

Too young and poor to retire! Did think of suffering from anxiety, claiming Tom has issues (just flown to Denver for 4 days!) Then claiming as much benefits as I can! That could amount to a good salary, but not my way...... Got a couple of things bubbling on, will start to look in earnest next week. Just getting some cards made while sat in Crete! Not enough WiFi by the look of it though! Would prefer to stay in the Arb sector but, depends on what is out there and the rewards/role! Got to admit that my head was in a spin for a couple of weeks and will miss those who I met and worked with along the way, but good friends will still be there. A few of us suggested a lads weekend away to drink beer, watch rugby and eat curry which sounds good! Thanks for asking Les.

Morning Team. Rinse and repeat for me. Windy, awake too early and read the papers already! Be safe out there! Ferry, Tails.
-
Very windy here today! Most likely to stay in front of apartments under the trees for the shade! If it that bad and like being sand blasted, will jump in the car and drive into the distance where it will blow in a different direction! Be good all of you! Peat, Saddo.

I would have said that it depends on the "waste". Ex FIL got trailer loads from one mill and it was off cuts and bark etc which was stored outside so was very wet. He didn't get the argument that he should have been paid to take that crap away! I got a bench to go on his old Fergie, got the thing working and collected long lengths from Belvoir sawmill and spent a while slicing these off, good exercise and I could put crap into a barrow and put it on the burn heap rather than log shed. It was too much effort for him and I wasn't there that much so we went back to the crap logs! The stuff was sold as "sawmill waste", not as "firewood" as this has to be below a certain moisture content to be sold!

Awake early again - 4 here which is 2 UK Time! Will snooze on the beach later again! Be good y'all! Car, Bow, Hide, Rates.

Morning Team. Think it will be hot here. Up early again, bloody AC! Be safe this week! Pear, Pup, Hot.

Up late and now up early too! Maybe a nap on the beach later. Enjoy your Sunday! Ham, May, Sing, Graze.
-
I find Chestnuts to start early and finish early. Round by us, they are already covered in brown leaves and finished now!
-
Quite start to the day. Slept well for me! Enjoy your Saturday! Undies, Served.

Up and wondering what the day will bring, which beach, which Taverna, which shop for some tomatoes for lunch etc! Decision-making...... Jade, Eve, Ants.

Couple of years back, started my long dormant 090 at home, then to show Jase and Raf at GreenMech then to the buyer the next day. Next day, I couldn't hold knife in that hand! Was a few days before grip returned too. That thing was heavy and powerful - even with eardefenders was noisy too! No wonder my ears sing all the time! Must re-rubber the 880 and move that on too! Anyone know how to decode the number to give it an age? Reckon this was new in 1997 and I worked at GreenMech for 27 years! It cut up a sycamore butt and couple of oak butt since!
-
Splendid. What a good word, even has a excited ring to it! Nice one.
-
Slept through. Aided by a fair bit of local Raki! Windy here, will be hunting a spot for her to get laid out without getting sandblasted! Backed, Eerier.
-
This side of the island has it for us. Especially the stretch from Chora to Plakias. I know that is lazy tourism but a holiday is a choice thing and we come mainly to do not a lot! Awake far too early again. Will go back to sleep again in a mo, kip on the beach too no doubt! Melon, Collie.
-
Windy here again, maybe sand blasted on the beach! Blew, Wails.
-
Awake too early, combination of heat, thirst, full bladder and noise of the AC. Was still 27degrees at 23:00! Be good out there. (Hill Street Blues?) Rue, Pert, Bare.

Not in my Crocs i won't. The drive there and back is good, Google Earth doesn't do the terrain justice, even getting down to the bottom of the Gorge is a hike! Will have a meal or two in Chora Skafion though! Really treating myself tonight, got a 1.5ltr plastic bottle of dry red for €3.88!
