You can feel the rain in the here. It's gonna rain, just when and how bad remain to be seen.
I've still got Maplins last full catalogue at home, I'll have have a gander through it later. Nearly bought an airband radio from the local store, but bought it from a local shop, who were £20 cheaper. Never fully trusted Tandy.
That the one you posted the picture of a while back?
Go with what you have. More money to spend on other stuff...
Home from nursery? If you paid them extra, would they keep him longer?
Could have happened at the furthest point, fairy were being kind to you and trying to tell you summat as well when it went again at home.
In the blazing light of early morn!

Yeah, I'm sure it was..
I'm in a VHF and UHF hole here as well, not the very best reception area.
Mobiles have done work radios in...
I am wondering if I have any tubes left... 2 found.
Job for the morning..
used to get inner tubes from Wiggle, oh well.
I have Schrader on front wheel and Presta on the rear...
Tandy were more for the hobbyist, packs of components plus CB radios were better quality chassis wise
SDR is best for airband now.....

Can understand why you never bought it, on appearance of the outer alone.
Only if work pays for the mobile, and doesn't expect you to be on the other end at anytime.
You can't fix the second visit?
You must have upset her summat rotten. Make yer piece with her...
Local one this end had a realistic components catalogue you could order from. But as you say it were mostly built and ready for use stuff they sold. Still have one of their US 110v transformers, on the box as bought

My brain is frazzled...
not a good start to the day..
I had thought if fixed a wee repeat of yesterdays run, small steps..
Registered for a postal vote last night for the upcoming Election as written by M.Python..
I have never seen such an uninspiring lot of chancers posing as 'I care about you' MPs.
Monty Pythons..
Led by the worst politicians since Truss and Co.
I find it hysterical that on both sides of the Atlantic that some of those wanting to stop migrants are sons and daughters of migrants..
Trump that....
I'd post an image but it is not suitable..
some woman called Flick Drummondorsomething has got placards and boards made up with the wrong font, the Flick looks like something else :laugh::laugh:

Owdo the noo
You really have upset her. Make yer peace with her and she may leave you alone awhile longer.
What's a "fair age", I've innertubes over 15 years old in use, no issues.
Oder ready to pick up, but cancelled. Does that mean the partial refund is cancelled as well?
She not the type to accept their first answers?

Already! How'll you manage the rest of the day.
Short run, thought you were cycling?
Can't be bothered going to the polling station on the day. There's very few of them have tellers asking you who you voted for, voter ID these days. Can be wet and cold and they're not prepared to do that.
Two seats here and no news of who's standing for either. Current ones both stood down this time and we've boundary changes as well.
The Scots from Ulster, Americans from Scotland and Ireland.
I think he's the first in the modern era not to have claimed Irish heritage. Don't know if any town would want to acknowledge it either
If it's genuine who can argue over it?

Just been doing an online chat..
waste of time and space..
I should have just got an order from the big river place..
I got a foreign person (not a dig, by the way) but it has to be referred to some higher authority..
My inbox is full of aliexpress and halfords emails.... :laugh:
I had to create a new account as they said they had sent me emails to change my old password,
still waiting..
It's the partial refund bit that irks me....

7.9 mm rain so far today..
watering cans stood down...

Football starts tonight apparently..

Were it a real person or AI, or don't you know.
I'm finding that with online chat help. Does little if anything to help and often makes things worse.
Money down the swanneee.
Higher than who?
Mark them all as spam, that'll teach em...
Waiting still?
If they have cancelled the order why are they offering only a partial refund. Didn't Mrs M sort them out?

Less to do again today.
Always ready for action otherwise.

Who's playing who?
If you don't show, you'll not know until next time who else didn't show.
Watch the football instead.

The game that bad!
Who were playing who?

Three, how many did you order. They get it wrong, they should be the one's sorting things out. Sadly too many places hope you'll give in or not bother these days.
Only two quid, Mrs M must be getting soft.
You check your tyres before putting yer tubes in.
You've made your peace with the fairy, and no more sudden deflation feelings.
No spare?

Football? have I been hallucinating?
Just a break down in communication..
they have been known for saying stock is in but not really..
I remember a mix up or two about ten years ago but I then got hotline number to bike part,
B Cycling discount and price match then, dunno if they price match still and discount only 8% now...
Iceland give me 10% on Tuesdays...

Inner tube replacement after I play radio...

It's possible, severe dehydration and over working can do that.
I hate it when that happens. Moreso when the store has rung to say what was ordered is now ready for collection. When you get there, it's not there, never arrived or sold.

Their system let them down, and led to an increase in e-mails to yourself.
Think they may have changed that number since.
Iceland do innertubes now, I'll have to check the two local ones. Which section?

May your replacement be peaceful and longer lasting...

T'ain't too bad I suppose...
Especially if you've made it yourself.
More likely brewed around teatime previous day.

I wish iceland did inner tube and bike parts..
I'd be there Tuesdays..
Yesterdays chanty wrasslers give 8% but only at the till?
That inbox is cluttered with that lot, aliexpress and a survey mob....
think everything has cleared customs.

2.3mm of rain fell quickly there, got the bin I was airing in quick enough.
Fancying a cold beer..
but I'll wait.

I took the same route (plus a detour or two) but gingerly cycled through where I first noticed the flat but TBH I think it had been a slow...
I'll check later.
Pumphead on my track pump looks a bit mangled in the Schrader bit,
I could buy a cheap pump for not much more than the spare part.
