Great news! It isn't dead. After lying there motionless for a while it has now sprung to life and is now with it's mate dreaming of roaming the Savannah together and raising a family of slipperettes.

I calculated that I cycled about 9 1/2 miles today. That's enough for this month now. View attachment 394154

And you walked a long way from your bike to take that photo.

I thought it was roaming the gloaming.

[QUOTE 5136523, member: 21629"]Thanks.

Having in mind where I am working and what's going on with me during the last few months there's a possibility that I'm alergic to sulphur dioxide. So phone call tomorrow to book an appointment with GP asap.[/QUOTE]
Very best luck with that, hope you are soon on the mend.

I have made further progress with reducing the clutter. Several electrical items will be going WEEEEEE at the local tip (scrapyard) tomorrow, along with lots of cardboard boxes. For the benefit of our foreign correspondents, WEE is the acronym for recycling of tvs, old computers and anything with a plug.
Always take care with your WEE!:okay:

For the first time in my life, I encountered "Sun-lounger Rage". I had been on it for two hours and was woken from my doze by a red faced Swiss gentleman who was screaming at me that I had stolen his special place by the pool. I couldn't take this accusation too seriously and my behaviour was not well received. He stomped off shouting about the manners of the English.

Quite a strange episode really.

Many years ago on the first day in a new job, myself and the two other people who had just started sat down at a table in the canteen at lunch time only to have someone come over shouting at us for taking his table and that he had sat there every lunchtime for the past five years...well you won't today....:wacko:

On my ride yesterday I had a strap break on the handlebar bag I brought last August :sad:. An E-Mail to Amazo n this afternoon brought the response pack it up and send it back for a refund, just print off the labels we've provided. tonight had a 45 minute fight to persuade my ancient and temperamental printer to print the labels :angry:. I really must get round to replacing that printer.

My father had a fault on a laptop he bought nine months previously from Amazon and they fully refunded it without any quibble too. I was very impressed. :okay:

Buy your new printer from them. You know you’ll be able to send it back if there’s a problem! ^_^
 
Did Huntingdon in the the morning - mirabile, managed to avoid the traffic.

Finished off that tree in the afternoon. :dance:

Mum got the date for her rescheduled hip replacement today. Was supposed to happen mid January, and we couldn't have been given a *worse* replacement date (on ridiculously short notice) to try and work around. To say I'm pissed off is an understatement as I now have to throw the pies I've been juggling in the bin and juggle a completely different set of pies. :angry:

Last time we got two months' notice.

Things are well and truly specked. :cursing:
