Lockdown fever getting to you Mo?Oops, I’ve just bought another bike
Had a hankering for a comfortable titanium frame and this seemed like a good price. Happy with rim brakes as I find it easier to source and fit wheels and find the brake pads less faff than discs.

Must have been.
In 1947, too, Locke released "Hear My Song, Violetta," which became forever associated with him. "Hear My Song, Violetta" was based on a 1936 tango.

Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.
The rain has set in again. That's it for the day now.

Still dry here with a bit of sun but a chilly breeze. Just back from the supermarket and having a protein bar with my coffee. Spied them on the shelves and took one to try. Not bad.

Well I've been working my way through a ridiculous number of accounts. Between us we had nine redundant bank accounts - the sort were you paid in £xx/month to get 5%/year. Those were the days. Also had three credit cards to shutdown which I took out when my lad bought a new car. I paid on my regular credit card and then took out three new 0% cards, transferred the debt across to those and my lad paid me back with £250/month - saved him over £1200 in finance charges.
Came across three different methods:
Ring up
Simple tick a few boxes online
Fill in an online form then upload a copy of photo driving licence or passport
The Biopic about Joseph Locke was quite good. It's called 'Hear my song', funnily enough.
He were a bit of a lad in his time.
Worth a watch......

Clint Walker was, I think, a British film star who did a lot of westerns. Don't know why but it springs to mind.
Ed Byrne was a BBC radio presenter.
Clint Walker was a tall dark haired western actor also appeared in several war films.
Think he was in Rawhide, or something similar.
Ed Byrnes - 77 Sunset Strip??

Not a clue being a youngster!
If I had to guess, Haynes manuals and Bendix washing machines?ok I cheated and had a peek at google. Mr Bendix is another actor. Lol. Takes me to remember modern actors names never mind those from Nineteen Canteen!

Good morning, it's windy, grey and heavy drizzle. I didn't wake till 10.15! "Hurrah" I hear you say. Wrong! 
woke at 1.00, couldn't sleep as all sorts of negative stuff running through my head, went downstairs to watch a film till 5.00am.
Mrs P has just wondered out loud if it's worth getting dressed today😄 She's planning to light the fire.
I've nothing planned other than a bit more internet security stuff and a walk if rain stops. The negative thoughts are just me being pissed off with the current situation. Nothing more.
@monkers I 👏 you @Drago watch is a significant contribution to our little online community. 😂

The lockdown isn't bothering me one whit. By nature im a loner anyway, and the older i get the more people simply annoy me, so having an excuse not to see any is fine by me.
But I do appreciate not everyone feels the dame way, and some are suffering pschologically.
