Tea? (Part 2)

[Arch]

We've just had fish and chips from Mum's local chippie. We were thinking of going out to eat in their restaurant, but decided it was simpler just to get takeaway. They do quite big portions.

NT and I shared a battered blue whale, while Mum went for a 'mini' fish and chips, so she only got a minke whale.

Bit full now. We've got pudding to come, leftovers from yesterday's lemon meringue pie:

Is it me or is the new series of Whitechapel scarier than the last one. I may have to check for fluff behind the sofa.

Not watching it....I'm looking at Foyle on ITV3. I've seen it before but I'm practising imitating Michael Kitchen - I think I shall become slightly eccentric and quirky.

I though he was taking tips from you Rocky, suave and debonair

Daft question maybe but can you use an ordinary road bike and put panniers on it for touring or do i need another new bike to do it ?

Slightly eccentric?

So that is less eccentric than you are now?

If it has the fittings for holding a rack yes.

Depends on how much weight you want to carry and whether you can fix a rack to it.....I've got a rack for my audax bike and used it for a 'light' tour LEJOG a couple of years ago.

How can LEJOG be" light" ?

Hils is very observant, Potsy....and never ever wrong

I have added that to my signature
