Mundane News

[Katherine]

Good morning from a cold frosty and foggy Coventry. Yesterday ended in disappointment, had a table for two booked for last night but had to cancel. We came out to find we had a dead car, battery's died.

Oh dear, I hope you have been able to rebook.

Morning all, too icy to ride to work today so I walked, I now appear to be developing a blister at the underside of my toe. Not nice

Ouchy. Plasters on before you walk home and check the socks are not wrinkled or the shoe is slipping.

Were you asked to leave?

No,there was no one else there.

I'm surprised that someone hasn't mentioned the words double entendre

Ok then, I'll give you one.

Call the next ride the CCBB ride, and visit the locations, like the windmill, the pond and the village, and of course pubs.

I commend it to the house!

 

[Fab Foodie]

Fabbers and I were singing the CCBB song in the first pub, I fancy that we were really good, it sounded good in my head at least.

Bit of practice it would be epic!

Just touched-down in Domodedova and 31 CC alerts....all of them mundane!

When I ask for the long screw, the shop assistant will say he can give me one, and what colour is the knob?

Potty does not like us talking about knitting, so while he is at work, I can post this.

Those who do knitting, I do not like the way the overlap bulks out at the side. Is that because it was not properly fitted to the wearer? I would do it by picking up the stitches in the cross over bit, so that there is less bulk.

Or I might knit this one instead:

With a plain but co-ordinated top underneath, it could look good. You can see lots of free patterns on the loveknitting site.

I will not use the Noro yarn, tho, as it is very expensive. I carefully check my knitting tension according to the pattern.

Talk Sports Hawksby and Jacobs have just reminded me of this guy. Highly recommended.

Not rebooked just yet but will do later in the week. The cars sorted now, I've only had it three weeks so still under warranty, we jump started it got it round the garage and they replaced the battery free of charge.

Wthout a wish to be boring, I'll give you this too,

Enough with the knitting

Mrs M really isn't having much joy trying to watch the TV.

Yesterday, trying to watch the rugby

Today, different cat, same problem, whilst trying to watch a movie

Mine prefers sitting in front of telly, thus ensuring all people suffer, rather than the chosen one

Dropped mum off at her OT exercise class at lunchtime and took myself off to the local recycling centre to have a mooch in their sales area. Decent number of bicycles in there today, prolly about a dozen, all at £30 a pop. Most of them BSOs, but three reasonable if basic Raleigh ladies hybrids and one Mistral ladies drop bar tourer.

Was looking at the Mistral for myself, but inevitably, it's much too big.

@Marmion - be thankful you get the head end. I usually end up with a face full of tush...
