In theory it would work fine if everyone behaved the same. Alas people don't, which introduces that random element.

Trouble is, the system doesn't account for "ditherers" who loiter for ages trying to think about what to choose. It would work perfectly if people had a list and just took what was on the list and moved on.

IMHO better to avoid any sort of unnecessary contact.

You need one of these for your next trip, a snip at only $1,238.80.

I'm having an end of day brandy. I recommend it. Though you'll have to buy your own.

End of day here.

I think a pair of cuban heels and a glittery costume might be more useful, given the Social Distancing Tango that most people are dancing.

We're all tripping the light fantastic!

End of day here.

I've had 5 mugs of tea already today. I needed a change.

If you saw that coming in the Door after you, what would you do?

I must answer any phone call. I am the only one person in a large 5 story building. We do communicate via radios but private things are sorted via phone calls. And that was a call from security supervisor.

I'm used to just hollering across the room to my security supervisor, at present.

Before I got the gout, I sure used to enjoy that.

Just remembered, I left some washing on the line while on holiday in 2013.

Wonder if it'll still be there.

Smile. It would cheer me up no end.

You do know it's 50 calories per mile cycled. To work that lot off, you'd need to cycle from Jenkins Towers to Casa Reynard near enough...

Might need to rethink your figures.
"According to Harvard University, biking at a moderate speed of 12 to 13.9 miles per hour will cause a 155-pound person to burn 298 calories in 30 minutes. At a faster rate of 14 to 15.9 miles per hour, a person of the same weight will burn 372 calories."

Oh goodness no - I'd get the train from either Ely or Manea (which, by the way, is for some reason pronounced Maena)

Ely's way closer. You can't get directly to Manea from Casa Reynard - you'd have to divert via Welney or Mepal to get across the Hundred Foot.

Anyway, bed calls. Nunnight one and all
