Mundane News

[Reynard]

Right, radio 5 Live Sports Extra, live timing, sausage rolls, crisps and tea.

Time for the F1 from Barcelona.

Have you been reactivated?

Slow recovery from a calf injury so not reactivated in any big way. But it's getting there.

 

[Ming the Merciless]

Back from a ride to pub for Sunday roast and a pint.

 

[Illaveago]

I've bought another bike ! I mean I have swapped an 80's Holdsworth Avanti 501 for a 50's WF Holdsworth Cyclone in need of some TLC. Just got to arrange how we get them to the right places .

 

[Andy in Germany]

Twelve dead, more injured, as a result of the storms.
Living on a hillside has its advantages.

We haven't had anything like that, and I haven't seen any news coverage over the last few days. Will have to have a look...

 

[Reynard]

Now that's a real change... A Spanish grand prix that hasn't been a cure for insomnia.

I thought that was their purpose.

Now that's a real change... A Spanish grand prix that hasn't been a cure for insomnia.

I look forward to the highlights.

 

[Reynard]

I thought that was their purpose.

Usually, yes. It's a circuit that's notorious for being difficult to overtake on

Mind you, they're racing in Monaco next week...

 

[Reynard]

I look forward to the highlights.

You won't be disappointed, I think.

 

[Andy in Germany]

Twelve dead, more injured, as a result of the storms.
Living on a hillside has its advantages.

I just looked and it's well to the north. I expect we're protected in the south because we're away from the coast and sheltered by the mountains in France and Germany.

I also noticed some good news; the extremist parties in Germany recently lost a lot of support in the state elections: they didn't even get a single seat in some state parliaments.

 

[Reynard]

I should've added that three-time world champion (81, 83 & 87) Nelson Piquet used to say that racing around Monaco was like trying to ride a bicycle in your living room.

 

[oldwheels]

They've re-booted it, but fronted by that chap from The Only Way is Essex...

Never even heard of the programme you mention but not really important as I would not watch it now. Rejigs of such programmes never work.

 

[oldwheels]

I watched "Natural World" last week, BBC 3 or 2? It was about the birds of the Scottish Highlands, and was very good.

Don't mention sea eagles or my comments would get me banned.
