Meat balls and garlic bread for dinner tonight. Trying to decide on a beer to go with it.
Walked to the shop for a few bits and pieces. Traffic turning left at a roundabout was backed up so some tosspot in a Golf drove down the wrong side of the road past about seven cars and went around the wrong side of the roundabout to turn right. 
I was hoping a large lorry would be coming towards him.

Chosen the beer, gone for Landlord.
Nice pint that.
Best one I had was on the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway hand pulled pint, in a pint pot. Only passenger railway to have a fully working bar on a train. Timothy Taylor's is just over the fence so arrives at it's best.

Almost time to feed the cats (yes, I'm being stared at), and then it will be time to feed me.
A bitsas supper in front of the football is the plan.

Drove into Oban at 0900 this morning and it was so dark most had dipped headlights on apart from a few idiots with no lights. Road was eerily quiet for that time of day. Strange.
By the time I had finished in Aldi and Lidl it had cleared up.
Got an email telling me Ernie had been quite generous this month after checking on January 2nd and being told there was zilch.
Bike shop had a queue waiting on opening with people wanting impossible to get bits which took ages until I asked if I could just get chain lube as I had a ferry to catch.
Boat not too busy but the usual nuisances of screaming uncontrolled kids.
Deck crew now give me a friendly reception as I am recognised as a regular.
Fast run home on quiet roads as they used to be before the touroid infestation then the nightmare of unpacking. Left the fridge stuffed as much has to be broken down into smaller packaging for the freezer tomorrow.
Nice Massey Ferguson in the ferry waiting area. Sorry about the lamp standard but I could not be bothered getting out of the car.

133 laps of an oval done. So technically I've not been anywhere 
After the seatpost was raised a bit the new aero crankset and lower stem felt fine, and will hopefully be quicker.

I'm trying to decide if it is a late model 135 or a 148. Difficult to tell from that angle. There was also 133 which is a more basic 135 without live hydraulics or diff lock but they're extremely rare. Not sure they were even made with that later front axle.
