Morning. I'm awake ! I think I am, I'll just double check .

Well?

I'm sort of looking forward to a commute that definitely won't involve struggling in snow, dropping the bike & a recovery truck, or getting home at 12.30am. Sort of.

[QUOTE 5172355, member: 9609"]how old are the alloy rims the tyre is on?[/QUOTE]

As far as I’m aware, they were new when the car was new (we bought it secondhand) in 2008.

The mechanic at my local garage told me that the tyre is fine. The alloy rim is damaged (result of a pothole) so he sent me to another garage in the next town which can repair it. So I made the trip and they said they can repair it for £48 inc. VAT. They’ve put a loaner wheel on while they fix it and I should be able to pick it up in a couple of days where they’ll swap the wheels back over.

It was nice walking to the station in mild weather and daylight this morning.

Had a pleasant walk with the dogs I. The sunshine this afternoon. Just feeling the sunlight and, yes, heat was wonderful.

Walking round to the delivery office and getting sent away again counts as a full attendance for Friday, no need to make up time or use leave. Good call, me. Easiest day's work ever.

You made the effort and not losing time or wages seems right to me.

Decades ago, when I was a Civil Servant, in bad weather if you couldn't get to your "home" office, you were supposed to report in person to your nearest office.

Busy day today... But still managed to sneak out for a ride before going yellow stickering in Tesco - reasonable luck, but a distinct lack of fruit & veg. Except for a whole case of avocados. Bought 8, plus some organic milk, a seafood selection and a few other sundries. And I was "fastest finger" on a chocolate cheesecake.

Just pulled a malted granary loaf out of the oven for tomorrow.

Morning. There are two cats sat on my garden path. Schrodie is staring at them from the comfort of the kitchen.

I'm trying to remember my college lectures names. I have remembered a few of them but there is one that evades me, it seems to keep flashing past like an express train in my brain.

 

[Illaveago]

Was it me?

Do you often go flashing past like an express train ?

 

[Illaveago]

I got it !
All of those little brain cells have been busy sifting through loads of files scattering bits of information around. Occasionally an image of his face would appear but no name, and then all of a sudden his name came up.
He taught packaging design .

That’s that little problem wrapped up then.

I am about to become an ex recumbentist.
