Well, there's this much "they do know"?Could somebody clarify just how small the Small Business Minister is ? I would like to know ?
Perhaps they should provide a scale with him so that people could be reassured just how small he is .
"Scully's shoe size 4 (US) & dress size 8 (US)."
Pleasant little ride to drop some stuff off at the charity shop, then up to Moulton and Overstone book swap phone box and bus stop.
I paused at Bewitched drive through coffee (etc) place for a Hot Choccy and had a nice chat with the lass serving at the Drive Through window.
As I sat drinking it, the lady who was next in the queue stopped for a minute and said how I'd made her day seeing me ride a bike via the Drive Through.
If only all car drivers were so pleased to see cyclists!!

A very good night was had yesterday - loud music and beer combined to make things a little fuzzy first thing today, but a good breakfast got me back in order.
Now on the train home (just approaching Manea station) while istening to an Australian punk band and working out if I can afford to go back to Nottingham to see them I'm June

Beautiful spring day here chez Casa Reynard.
All the parental unit's errands in town have now been completed, but that used up the morning. I will do some writing and gentle puttering around this afternoon. A bicycular bimble might be in order too.
Spent a chunk of yesterday evening reading up on mechanical watches, as I've never had one as my "main" watch before. The Gradus is gaining about a minute and a half a day, but going by what I've read, that appears to be reasonably acceptable for the non-poncy vintage stuff. And this watch *IS* older than me, after all... Apparently it's good habit to wind the watch every morning anyway, so I've started doing that as well.
And the rat trap in a box has had the bait eaten but the trap's not been triggered. At least I know they a) go in the box and b) they like dried fruit. Will need to fix the fruit on more firmly when I re-bait it later.
Anyways, it is almost time for luncheon.

Having had a hunt in the parts shed for someone I found five full sets of Ultegra 6700 shifters plus 10 Dura-Ace 9000 rear derailleurs amongst a pile of other things I didn't realise were there. It's a Tardis inside.
Methinks I have caused the global bike parts shortage

Lovely luncheon of an egg mayonnaise sandwich (wholemeal bread), half a mango, half a punnet of raspberries and two 
Going to let that lot tamp down, then I'll see if I can't get the mower started. If it starts, then I'll be giving what passes for lawn here something of a haircut, if it doesn't, I'll put the battery on the charger and head off on a gentle bicycular bimble instead.
