Suns out now

 

[PeteXXX]

The reduced price tickets are normally released about 12 weeks in advance. I've got a couple of alerts set up with them for October & November ticket releases, but will probably book direct with Greater Anglia & East Midlands Trains as there's no booking fees.

Thanks. I'm looking at mid August.

Cats have been fed. My supper is in the works.

It stopped raining here about an hour ago.

I picked No1 daughter's bike up, this evening, as we're doing stuff over the weekend.
Suffice it to say, she's not into bike maintenance 😂

The back brakes now work and the tyres have been inflated 'a bit' (15psi was a tad spongy, I thought). It's clean and lubed now, too..

 

[Reynard]

Lovely supper of sea bass-in-a-parcel, tabbouleh, steamed green beans and a garlic & herb butter sauce.

*BURP*

I'm signed off work for a week with a bad back, after getting a ticking off from the Doc for going into work on Monday and Tuesday.

I got some painkillers and also something to help muscles ralax, with a warning "These'll make you sleepy, don't try to drive, operate machienery or think in sentences". I think I'll use those in the night as sleeping had been a bit iffy since Friday...

I've just taken the muscle relaxants before going to bed.

Now I'll find out if they have any effect onmynmfilibblyneionfrvjsdnfrrrrrrrrrrrgggggggggg...

A Mundane question re booking train tickets via thetrainline.com (or similar booking service)

When is the cheapest time to purchase the tickets? (Not the time of day, but how long in advance) Is it cheaper with more than 90 days notice, or within 90 days?

🤔

Advance tickets aren’t generally released more than 84 days in advance

Had a nice thirty miler after work and I didn't get too wet. Stopped en-route at the motor factors to pick up my gearbox mounting. Had a nice plate of vegetable soup with some crusty bread.

I wonder am I the only one who cycles to collect car parts!

No.

Ta. I'll count back from the date and check then. 👍

I've just re-filled my ice cube tray.

 

[Reynard]

Opposite in the temperature range. I've just filled my hot water bottle.

Drinking green tea 🍵

 

[deptfordmarmoset]

I need to go for a pee. Recent options are an ice cube tray, a hot water bottle and a green tea. Choices, choices!

I'm seriously considering starting to do the washing.

Is this related to those painkillers you've recently started on?
