You're brave. Here its hotter then Carol Vorderman, rolled in curry powder, served on a platter of chillies, so in the interests of health I gave it a miss today.

I've had it in my right wrist for maybe 8 years or so. Three years ago I was diagnosed by an idiot GP with MND and I had to have NCVS & EMG tests as part of the ruling out process (fortunately I do not have MND) and the Consultant picked up the CT in the right wrist and also in the left wrist - this was a surprise, especially when he said it was worse in the left!
Steroid injections not helping much. GP says NHS are not recommending operations to cure it these days (cost saving?) but I am awaiting an appointment with a hand specialist to see what the score is.
It's a sod riding my bike with it!

Well that was embarrassing. Everyone decided we should do the flattish route I'd devised. Off we went down lanes I know well, route looking good. Then we had to negotiate a motorway roundabout to turn back on ourselves to take another lane...........turned out I'd screwed up the routing, nowhere near where we should have been.
Had a quiet word with friend who is local to that area and we made it up as we went along! Decided to chuck the route and make it up on the way home.
Great ride! Lots of laughs. 70 miles, 16.5avg.

That reminds me.
Lovely Wife who is still dithering over when to retire (she's 56 and likes her job) even though she has no need to work, has her retirement mantra as a slight variation on this with 'rave' replaced with 'shag' - she's a good wife! Although if she dithers for too much longer I might well be too old...

What an amazing game of tennis that was. Cori Gauff has got a great future ahead of her. Was on the edge of my seat!

We felt sorry for Hercog as she'd done nothing wrong and the commentators were biased towards Coco. The crowd as well but I think that's more a reflection of how we love this sort of story.
