    SG we have similar nights out, well cider rather than bubbly and local pub rather than theatre 😂

    Current wife is away and it’s my main drinking pals birthday, so hopefully meet at the pub.

    Before then, a run with hounds, work snizzle, sort kids before they go to work (apparently they will need food) and then hopefully a quick bike ride.

    In between an appointment with the physio about my knee

    Today's planting of Big Stuff features lots of bamboo. Fortunately I dissuaded client from choosing the invasive runner type, requiring 1m deep impermeable barrier trenches etc. They have guinea pigs and chickens, no pandas so 🤔

    Anyway, will be a pleasant enough fettle about in the dry.

    Shiftmate has arrived.

    looks quite nifty tbh.

    Morning all. Steady day again on training course that probably won't be used or acted upon because its going to cost them a fortune. May run tonight once car has been filled up and I've doubled it's value.
    Too many bikes according to Mrs O.

    CBA Wednesday.

    A fire alarm keeps going off, it's not our building but it's loud enough that we can hear it. I don't know where it is otherwise I'd sort it with the hammer/fire/fence method.

    Bit breezy today, again.

    Not a lot to report bar needing another throttle body for the w202. Just inching towards sale and things get chucked at you. Typical.

    Had to DuckDuckGo that!

    Tried to have a lie-in as I'm not at WFW until this saffto. Funny how when you plan a late get up you wake up really early. More tea...

    Yeah sore knee isn’t stopferkinrunnning but patella tendinitis (insertional) 😎

    Keep the miles flat for now and do some exercises

    Went running, come back with a rash all over my hands.

    Is it a #parafinandwirebrush job or a #wankitout job?

    saw that grazie but £35 more expensive than the Shiftmate and 28 tooth too low for Bambino at the mo'

    Shiftmate also means that in future replacement cassettes are a lot cheaper as well.

    Finally exchanged on the old dear's gaff, that's 2 ½ weeks after signing the pesky thing. What a relief, I think I might have a beer to celebrate.
    Wankitout with paraffin whilst wearing a chainmail glove thistle, saves time and effort. Work smarter not harder.

    Been silly busy today, even forgot to post earlier. But got a lot done and in chill mode now thankfully.

    For some inexplicable reason, they play this on Christmas day in Sweden every year. Plus the woodpecker(?) Donald duck cartoon.
