And I've ducked the Abertawe bullet for the next two days!

Remember the, uh, somewhat shortlived security guys in Star Trek?...Bit of delegation maybe?...

Motor died on the lawn mower. Two thirds of the job to complete. As a lover of tidy and straight lines, its driving me mad.

 

[Shut Up Legs]

I just sent a roughly 200 word letter to The Age newspaper (Melbourne), clarifying the sources of road runding, to try to educate those people who keep insisting cyclists are freeloaders. I hope it gets published...

 

[Maverick Goose]

I'm listening to Simple Minds

I have had sausages for supper

 

[Mad Doug Biker]

Well, today I went and played indoor bowls (a group I'm involved with have set up a challenge with the staff of somewhere to stage a challenge), and that was the second training session I've been too. I am reasonable at it at the moment, and no doubt I will improve still.

I haven't played bowls in years, and being a Curler, I was a bit sniffy about it, but its actually quite good fun, even if its not as refined as Curling!!

I then went to a local charity shop and bought a book on German (I did it at school, so I at least have the rudimentaries to get started again).

I then went home, meeting quite the cutest, bounciest little 4 month old Staffie Pup on the way, and had a cup of tea.

I then went out once more to pick up some parcels, and whist there I visited another charity shop and bought some old past papers on Chemistry and Biology for when I get back to college again. Unfortunately I didn't have enough money for all of them (don't ask), so I left two of them and went home.

I then got the money and went back down, but the shop was shut by the time I got back, so I said hello to a beautiful white Alsatian that was tied up waiting for its owner to come out of a nearby shop instead.

I also observed a woman buying and trying to ride away a pink ladies bike from the Cash Converter place just as I arrived, except that she didn't get too far with riding it, the saddle was too low, etc. I would have helped her, but she seemed to be aware of it, and besides, I couldn't have done much anyway seeing as I didn't have any tools with me.

So, I then wandered along to Asda, or to be more exact, Marks, and bought some Smoked Salmon for tea, along with some beer (Black IPA, a contradiction in terms, I know). I then visited Halfords in the hope the woman with the bike visited, so I could take a closer look at what she'd bought, but she didn't turn up, but I did see one or two bikes I liked instead!!

That is all

I have had sausages for supper

So have I, Cumberland slowly braised with apple and onion, with steamed broccoli and asparagus and new potatoes.

I'm updating the Linux installation on my Raspberry pi

 

[Gravity Aided]

I am petting a rather large harrier and he's getting hair on my keyboard. Tonight was pizza night as well, so contentment all around.

 

[Deleted member 1258]

I've just taxed the car, and its gone up again.

 

[deptfordmarmoset]

The hot water has just come on. This means that it's time to go.

 

[IDMark2]

I'm learning French, but my schoolboy German keeps invading it. Ironic that.

I put some Rice Crispies on the bird feeder. The birds don't seem to like them.
