Itching to get back on my bike's

Evening cuppa brewing with a chocolate roll next to it
Leave it close to the boiler and do not try switching it on for a day
I have conducted a number of requiems for phones, most because they got wet riding in the rain.

Football listened to (whoops, once again), Formula E listened to (whoops, another chaotic race) and cat fed.
I have also fed me with soup, a crusty roll filled with egg mayonnaise, and a salad. And the inevitable
of course.

It has an IP69 rating.
Now I'll find out if that's true.

If that includes basing a character around some dirty washing that's been left to moulder in the cupboard since the late 1980s and desperately needs airing, then yes. The *actual* driver in question denies it (to admit it would totally screw his reputation), but I have the same story and background info from multiple (and very reliable) sources. And I'm also taking the opportunity to use an ex of mine (another well-known driver) as the basis for another character. Put it this way, motor racing is full of very interesting and yet very unpleasant people.
You know what they say. Do not annoy a writer, for she will put you in a book and kill you.
Both characters will get their come-uppance, but in very different ways. And no, I don't kill them, as that would be far too unsatisfying.

So, not a 'novel' in the sense of a fictional story but a 'spill the dirt' book?
I spent ages trying to dry my Samsung out under the hand dryer in a hostel toilet in Galway once.
It came back to life the following morning!

Houston we have a problem. I've just been preparing the food & drink for Sunday's day out and there's only enough coffee* to make about one mug's worth and my flask takes about three mugs worth. This is what happens when you forget the shopping list and only pick up the known usual bits.
*Instant Nescafe. There's always a spare pack of filter coffee for home consumption in the cupboard.

My 13 USD Raleigh Detour 4.0 is almost up to scratch, although after changing the chain, I now need to change the rear cluster. Luckily, the cassette came off with the tools I had on hand. Have to go and visit the mayor/bike shop owner and see what is available in 11-32t. If not, then I will see what Mr. Bezos has on hand.

It is fictional, with different timelines involved. But some parts of the story arc have been based on real events.
