Mundane News

Coolish evening so a frozen food shop at Morrisons (10% off voucher) but first a Simply Food where the £ seemed to increase too quickly on the till, such is the cost of free from foods. £3.25 each for a tiny pork pie (albeit labelled as serving two) and a pair of sasuage rolls (albeit offset slightly by a 10% voucher). Had one of those parking puzzles on the return to the car at Morrisons, how had that car parked so close to mine and the driver got out?

Evening hot chocolate went down well

Homemade vegetable chilli (not vegetarian, as I used chicken stock and beef dripping), rice, cheese, soured cream and sliced avocado. And bloody lovely it was too

What a miserable day - while working in the west facing bike shed this afternoon, I needed the lights on as it was so gloomy. Also back into trousers and socks rather than shorts and bare feet.
At least I got everything done that I wanted to do, but the minor tweek to the rear derailleur hanger on one bike resulted in it snapping under just a little pressure - better than while on a ride!
Hoping for a dry day on Friday so the grass can get done.

Feel like a bit of a numpty after missing a Bay of E auction I was interested in, for a load of stock car magazines.

And of course, the lot sold to a single bidder. The only positive from that, is that the seller was reluctant to split, so I'd have ended up with a whole bunch of duplicates.

Well this might not be mundane but i guess more people come in the news section pretty often.Well me and Joe Biden are giving up something we both love doing.I have just returned from Otley hospital,after having a hearing and balance appointment.i failed at the balance test i actually fell over twice.Mrs P who was with me thought i was going to crash into the Doctors desk.So that's it 38 wonderful years.Cycling got me through my divorce way back during 86-87.I will always be thankful for that.So i will ask my son if he wants my best bike and my tops,otherwise i will get shut.

I'm not convinced that walking balance or standing on one foot, and cycling balance - which is more body balance then leg balance - are anything like the same thing. I've been too drunk to walk and got home safely by bike. You can cycle till you start falling off your bike*.

*I am not a doctor alert.

Socks day in London too.

Sorry to hear that, I am getting into the same position, but will see if the exercycle can help me before I hang up my pedals.

Tricycle?

Where there's a will, there's a way xxx

Beware the curves.

Beware the curves.

I was thinking recumbent trike as opposed to upright.

Though I did see two people on upright e-trikes in Littleport yesterday.

 

[Reynard]

Anyways, it's late. I better do an Upsy Daisy and find my bed.

Nunnight one and all xxx
