Nice bright morning, on the train headed into town for more of the usual fun. Managed to avoid triggering the 'hound alarm' which would have pissed off the rest of the household.

How do you avoid the hound alarm!? Are you a Ninja? 🥷

Not bright and sunny here but at least it's not raining.
Pedal to WFW then pedal back.

Morning.
Mucho chillioso this morning! Definite brrrrr in the air. WFW but had to drive. Traffic chaos is worse due to road closure.
More coffee required.
Sometimes. Maybe. Possibly.

Remember those cartoons like Scooby-Doo where they're walking on tip toes trying to be quiet? That's me, that is. Actually, its the floorboards upstairs and the stairs creaking the triggers the 'bark alert', once I've made it downstairs I'm in the clear.

Boss called me in for an impromptu meeting - got a pay rise and a bonus so all's well in Stevo-land for now. Better not tell the wife...

I initially read that as 'Scot trail' which I thought sounded like a good day, then i realised it was 'Scot rail' which doesn't sound as good.

Afternoon folks,
Another day of orifice based fun and games, perfect weather for sitting outside a pub in the sun. There are no pubs left around these parts, not necessarily a bad thing as they were absolutely dreadful. Twickenham is the nearest for a decent boozer. Managed to wobble in, glassback still being difficult so I'm trying to do my stretches when I can.

Afternoon Workers and Shirkers, Steady ride in to work at dark and chilly o'clock. Discovered my boss is having an extra day off so all shit seems to be coming my way. Looking forward to a steady ride home later. Should be able to dodge the traffic as well so result.
Too many bikes according to Mrs O.0 -
She could use a new sauna.

In others news, thing 2 dragged into an alley on the way home from school by 3 lovely travellers for no reason and punched in the face. Only plus side is he’s as fast as fuck and managed to leg it after he got up. Police too busy to send anyone even though travellers still hanging around the area, but can fit us in for an appointment Wednesday, yay.

Been out on site all day followed by a Cragg Vale plod in the winter/turbo bike. It felt quite spritely really, oldish Allez with 25mm tyres.
The Trek is quite plush on 28mm rubber and an Isospeed damper.

Don't want her to get any more spending ideas. Especially as I want to spend it.

Bizarre to me. Why would would some travellers pick on a random boy? Wtf is the world coming to? No one is joking.

plenty of nastiness on the streets, first saw reports in new york, but same is in london, punching strangers in the face, sometimes recording it...

They asked him if he knew a traveler boy who used to attend the same school. He said he didn’t know him but knew of him. That was enough apparently.

It's the rats in a cage experiment. 'Play' equipment and bedding was provided and food/water in plentiful supply. They put rats in a cage and kept adding 1 rat every 2-3 days until there got to a point where they would randomly start fighting and displaying aggressive behaviour.
The rise of violence towards woman is a global thing. What those men did in India is shocking:

yes, treatment of women/girls there is horrific, probably even worse for non-hindus, politicians make speeches then do nothing, or look the other way when charges are dropped or the convicted allowed to walk

Glad thing 2 had the sense to run Seano, hope he's alright.
