What is this "rain" of which you all speak? Absolutely nothing here for some time, but there have been a few rumbles of thunder and some lighning flashes out to sea recently and the radar shows something may be heading this way - knowing my luck it will go to the South or just fizzle out into nothing.

The rain here didn't amount to much. About half an hour of medium drizzle and that was about it...

Work today provided some respite from the heat for a while this morning - 10 minutes working in a cold store freezer room at around -20°C and a further 40 minutes in the chill room at around 5°C.

Didn't half notice the heat & humidity when I left the building!

In a period of spectacular incompetence, I visited 3 bike shops looking for a 24" presta valve inner tube today. Once I'd managed to find one, I discovered that the wheel was 20". I managed to lose 4 inches by a process I shall call equiscrunching. It will be interesting to see how long it lasts. I better go and buy the right size in the mean time. Just in case, like.

I must get onto the council tomorrow, ask what they can do about noisy neighbours.

Crow Pie.

Crow Pie.

Killing noisy neighbours, then eating them is taking it just that bit too far.

Too "Sweeney Todd" if you like.

Morning.
I was thinking of buying a new bike and by using ofqual's alagorical rhythm I should now be looking for a 14 inch frame with stabilisers.

Perhaps I should try Scotland .

She'd not be short of neighbours to use, by the sound of things.

Quite true.
October 28 through February 28 is the hunting season for crow in Illinois.
