Just having a cup of tea and a slice of chocolate swiss roll, I was lucky enough to get the end bit with more chocolate on it.

We had tea and chocolate swiss roll when TVC returned.

You had me at beef, beans, n' chips, but a tin of fruit salad too! I'll be round in a jiffy.

I can see the error in the before picture, is that what you are talking about?

I'd guess so. He's going to find it harder to polish the toes of his shoes while cycling now.

There's no B&Q in Llanelli.

I shall rely on you for all cultural matters!

A good mate of mine asked via Facebook if anyone could fix bikes, or knew anyone. I offered and he finally dropped it off today. It was his youngster's bike.

It was in a right state, having been left outside. It had hardly been ridden, but the chain was solid orange rust, the mechs had completely seized and the gears had no chance of moving.

I said I'd do it for parts and managed to get a freewheel, chain, tubes, gear inners and outers for £30.

Think I've done OK polishing a turd. There is a classic error !

I have one of those.

Kept me going for at least a year, over 450 miles. Might even use it again when the canal towpath gets really muddy. I did fit it with decent gear & brake levers and a saddle I could sit on, and my son didn't get it quite so rusty.

I've just murdered some pork medallions.... I don't know why I even tried cooking them it was like eating shoe leather! I can cook lots of things but not those!

 

[TVC]

Watching TOTP1981, Bad Manners are on. In those days Buster was considered really fat, by today's standards he is just a little chunky. Bless
