Or there is a fire and it gets burned!

I used to use Roboform a few years ago, but started to worry about the risk of that getting cracked and all of my passwords being compromised at the same time.
Those apps build their entire reputation on security. I think it unlikely they will be cracked.

I use lastpass - as does the company I work for.
 
Today I received a torque wrench kit, some flat pedals for my on-order gravel bike, and a wet-weather cycling jacket to test its fit (hard to find things to fit my vast blubber).

I also acted as my own postie today and picked up a mega bargain from a local chap on FB Marketplace. A mint Merida Ride 90 to be used as an indoor trainer bike and local shop runaround. I had no intentions of buying another bike but when it popped up on my FB feed, I thought why not? It means I don't have to keep swapping the new gravel bike on and off the trainer.

That looks nice, be great for your trainer, still got the reflectors on the wheels! Looks hardly used.

I would be surprised if it's done more than 1 or 2k miles. Absolutely no marks on the frame or the chainstays. Peddles show no wear either. It's crazy to think the bike is almost 8 years old. Must have sat in someone's garage for the vast majority of the time.

Found in the Yorkshire hills ...
A Tufo tubular tyre for a spare wheel - new old stock but functional.

A used Dura-Ace rear derailleur - one jockey wheel was seized but some cleaning and penetrating fluid sorted that. All good to go on the NeilPryde Nazaré we have as it seems it's going to be mine for a bit. That'll be allied with a pair of Dura-Ace shifters over the next few weeks.

A selection of LED light "bulbs" for the stairs.

All low wattage, but my better half says they're too dazzling. Back they go....
