My wife now has 'The Floral Dance' on her Spotify playlist.


She does not yet know this.


This is going to keep me amused for quite some time.

Mr K put some steam loco recordings on my mp3 Walkman when I first got it!

When I first got up it looked nice an sunny outside and then within a short space of time it turned grey and wintry.

A mundane willow tree

View attachment 348056

Just thinking that if, on a bike ride, you crashed into that tree @User14044 there would be the time honoured sound of leather on willow. Not that I wish you any crashes at all you understand.

I hoping that I will be able to go on a cycle ride with my friends tomorrow afternoon. I will take it a bit easy today to keep the fairies at bay.

I'm sorry to hear about your mother's accident.
As you suspected I am rarely serious, it was from just watching an actor gliding smoothly up the stairs that made me wonder what would happen if it went wrong.
It would appear from the comments that they can have problems which I was unaware of.
Before we moved into our present house there was one mounted to the wall, I mean the rack mechanism and electric cabling was still there, I couldn't think of a use for it at the time so the previous owner removed it.

I enjoy your light-hearted posts on this thread.

If you do not need a chair lift, yes the rack takes up a lot of space on stairs. I think the newest ones have a sort of tube above the steps.

Her accident was due to her confused state, not any fault of the lift, in my opinion. She has blood pressure that varies from very low to very high, despite medication. She should have been wearing her alarm call "watch" on her wrist. She is a frail 96 year old, (91 at the time of the accident) and her stair lift has enabled her to stay in her own home.

It is rather like motorised wheelchairs. The driver needs to be observant, and fairly skilled in controlling speed and direction, and avoiding pedestrians glued to their mobile phone.

The beef, chicken and venison has successfully passed through its quality control inspection courtesy of Chief Inspector Lexi. It has been parcelled up and I have been playing a very cold version of Tetris.
