in The bottom bracket
Morning Slackers. Soggy and windy out. Parkrun imminent. Bike settling today and wider family visiting for tea later. There will be pineapple chunks with cheese on sticks plus other childhood favourites in homage to long lost family members and memories of old fashioned high teas. Only addition is we're old enough to drink alcohol. Have a good wkend all.
Too many bikes according to Mrs O.

    Walk hounds, run in a local race where I think I would get top 3 easily….. except the current wife wants me to pace her 🤬

    Few jobs and then pick up MIL and out for a meal and an early night as I’m off running in the hills far away early doors tomorrow

    Hi 👋

    Had planned a cycle to escape
    Wifey in cleaning mode. Happy enough to get wet but the wind is 15pmh + which wouldn’t make an enjoyable ride.

    Morning folks, but not for long. Very slow start is being enjoyed. Bits of pottering to be done later, nothing too strenuous of course and I doubt I'll get many hurried polish men in.

    Of course not; you're far too handsome and young for glasses.

    For some reason this popped up as a recommended thing to read, computers know fords were being discussed, no mention of turkeys though.
