    'Ning

    Off to Formentor today although legs/back might not make it after yesterday's silliness.

    Not too hot just yet.

    Despite all the riding/hiking, still struggling to sleep 🙁

    On the train into town, got one of those peer group type meetings this afternoon where we swap tips about how not to get shafted by HMRC. Followed by a beer or two.

    Bit dull, not too windy and dry.

    Today I shall be mowstly playing Dad's taxi and doing very little.
    Perhaps i'll have a Peer group meeting with Beans. He's now started to sit near or on me. That's only taken 6 months but that's not the big news: Beans has started using the cat flap in both directions (after mastering the in but not the out initially).
    Say 'Well done Beans'.

    Did you ride up there or did you drive up there?

    Drove up. No one will rent me any kit. Can't think why. It is barren, but beautiful.

    Gratuitous tabby photo from the other night to keep the felinophiles happy.

    Can't you rent one of those cruiser/shopper type bikes from a hotel for €1/day?

    I did that in larnaca and got 5 miles into the occupied lands before I got bored of there being nothing but Turkish pillboxes with guns pointing in my direction.

    Coming back into the green zone, the British soldier manning the border searched my wicker basket for contraband.

    Coming down the pass back into Pyla was exciting with just a coaster brake 😁

    Thank you, I was sat reading about the 7 but adding another 2-300 depending on the model would get me into more trouble...

    There are leccy scooters. Not seen any cheapo bikes. The boy and I went for a hoon around town last night on the scooters.

    V68, I'm bringing this back. I reckon with a bit of tlc, it'll be a cracking little bike for a kid. 50:50 on the profit. :D

    Evening folks,
    Another day of chaos in the orifice, but a picture of competence compared to parliament. Wobbled in quite quickly, rather slower going home. Nothing to do with wind direction I'm sure.
    Off to the pub shortly as it's Wednesday.
    That bike looks good B³, I reckon we'll make enough that I can retire. Oh, and well done in getting through Piña's catflap, I thought you were in a different land of the tabby.
