Staff outing today. Introvert's nightmare.

Sympathies.

Thanks. I made it till about 4pm and then escaped having had all the energy drained out of me.

Killing time,bag packed hospital tests this afternoon,including one invasive with a camera.Looking forward to that NOT.

My sister in law is a doctor in Japan, and she's getting licenced for a new internal camera the shape and size of a large tablet* so patients only have to swallow it. Hopefully it will gradually become available here...

* ETA: for the benefit of people like @classic33 I should add I mean a small capsule of medicine, not the electronic device or stone with writing on. Thank you...

Similar to the thermometers you swallow, they too shall pass?

I know your avatar says Lancaster is a small city, but I didn't realise it was small enough to have a back window.

(It's been a long day, that's my excuse anyway)

It be Red Rose County though.

I don't know if this is mundane or just simply one of those strange coincidences, but my round trip commute for the past two days has been exactly the same distance to the hundredth of a mile

But if it's the same commute...

Can`t help but notice that the elevation gain is different if the route was the same or was it a different route that was the coincidence ?

 

[Jenkins]

But if it's the same commute...

Different lines round corners, avoiding parked cars, parking up away from the road while shopping, etc. I can't remember ever having done this, even over the course of a week!

Same route - it's just one of those Garmin 500 quirks of how it locks onto the satellites and changes in barometric pressure over a day.

I will admit that there is usually a slight variation due to what you just said. I have a Cateye computer with a magnet attached and of course if the tyre pressures are a little different or even standing up uphill can lessen the circumference of the front tyre. For you getting exactly the same distance is pretty good going, a hole in one in fact !

[Illaveago]

Disquieting, isn't it?
