Yep, Boris' message that we should Cycle or Walk to work appears to have been ignored by many. :sad:

I used to live 12 miles away from central London where I worked. I could have walked then & would have arrived in time for lunch, but there was a big hill in the way & cycling wouldn't have been much quicker. There is no alternative to public transport for most commuters.

The field at the back now has a fence dividing it & three sheep installed in the smaller portion. One of said sheep has migrated to the larger portion.

A 12 mile commute, easy peasy or are you just a 'weekend warrior'. :whistle:

You'll have to look close/carefully at the left knee. Scar is from replacement. So if it is "a" new creaking, it'll be the cr*ppy right that is in need of doing! ^_^

The creak on my bike was, I was sure, my left shoe, when I put a new wheelset on the bike it disappeared, I'm now thinking it was actually the front wheel that was creaking, the wheel was getting a bit tired.

Backpack packed ready for tomorrow's commute - bananas and coffee filter papers in the front section, clean uniform (2 shirts, 1 pair of trousers & a polo shirt) in the main section, building pass & keys in the side pocket. Just got to remember to take the rolls out of the fridge* in the morning and some semblance of normality** will return for a couple of days.

* The house keys are on the fridge door handle so I should remember
** Whatever that may be at the moment

After 8 weeks of working from home, I just found out that I'll probably be able to return to working at the office from Monday week. The sooner the better: I've struggled with motivation for cycling while at home, and I've gained weight.
Vive la :bicycle: commute.
I've changed my mind. :sad: After reading the return to work health & safety induction, and the list of things I'll have to do throughout each day to avoid getting infected, I started feeling stressed, and now I don't want to return yet. I just emailed a few people at work to tell them I no longer wish to return to work in this particular batch of employees, and will instead wait for the next batch.
