Beware of the snake!

Anyone who sees the reptile, which is not venomous but wraps around its prey and suffocates them, is urged to call 101.

And say "arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg..." Presumably.

Getting the phone and dialling 101 wouldn't be high on my list at the time.

I spent most of that looking for my bike...

Probably @Speicher would say I was making a spectacle of myself...

Why would I frame my response in that way!

 

[Speicher]

I suggest you buy focals.

Now look, you've been given instructions, don't blame me for the consequences if you don't follow them.

"What steps do you take on discovering a fire?"

Big ones in the direction of the exit.

 

[Andy in Germany]

Back at the apartment, reunited with glasses...

Now eating egg on toast. With ketchup.

So there.

Big ones in the direction of the exit.

That's a point where you really need your glasses...

 

[Speicher]

"In case of emergency break glass".

This is starting to get very silly.

 

[Speicher]

I have gardening to do. "Laters" as they say in the vernacular.

Are you going to visit Fläm?

Tis a lovely train journey from Bergen to Fläm. Then from there you can use the train to create lovely walks. I expect Fläm might have changed a lot since I was there in 1997. There was only one big hotel at the end of the pier.

Yes we are taking the Flam railway on our way back from Balastrand.

Avoided going into work then?

 

[fossyant]

Got to sneak my bike in the front door of work tomorrow. We have an 'activity' week for all staff. You can pick stuff like, origami, knitting, massage, cooking, or if like me, two hours mountain biking....

It's from 2pm till 4 pm, but I'm not leaving a decent MTB in works parking with nice removable parts like expensive 'dropper' seat posts that I can't run a cable through.

 

[Andy in Germany]

Avoided going into work then?

Alas no.

The boring reality is that I can survive without glasses, but I'm a bit cross eyed and very slightly short-sighted: it's not noticeable normally but it puts strain on my eyes and makes me tired more quickly.

So I was at work as usual, but it was a short day.

Had to be a short day, half way there in four hours.

You'll be headed home soon?
