Good to see the weather in Normandy for the TDF is as crap as it is in Denmark. Italy is looking good for a holiday then. :0)

I've just got back from a 58 mile cycle ride to Kineton and back

Just got back from the Turkish Restaurant. Kebabs for Sunday lunch.... you would too. @potsy would be proud.

Took daughter and Him Indoor on a 7 mile circular ride. Daughter is feeling more confident on the new bike, she is getting used to the gears as they are different from her old one. Best moment of the day is when daughter had to ask me to slow down!!!

Just back from a 6 mile cycle and an 8 mile walk.

I think a small beer is totally justified whilst watching the cycling or should that be drooling over Fabian.

Did you do that with the cloning tool?

???

 

[Hill Wimp]

I don't want to worry you @potsy but Amsterdam is getting ready for Christmas.

Good job you are not in Brugge.

They have a permanent Xmas shop which is odd looking around in your shorts and tshirt.

Shave? Just don't.

Then people will think I'm clergy.

If there's no one there, not much point doing a reading

We did wind up with about 19.5 people there.

My plans were scuppered for a short ride with Mr Summerdays to have a cream tea when my parents rang to say they were visiting. I wasn't sure what to say so said ok... I'm still not able to find out if my Dad should be driving, and even my Mum doesn't know! I had a lovely time with them just lazing in the garden.

A real shock Reg, I take it nobody was badly hurt.

Blimey! Walk, cycle and drool! Very nearly a triathlete!!

No. A young child in the first car banged her head and the paramedics checked her over - but no real injuries.

We were all breathalysed. Both the driver of the second car and I were clear... not sure about the driver of the first car. He had been put in the back of a police car for some reason and hadn't got/been let out before the second driver and I left.

Any idea why he slammed on his brakes? Just being nosey.

[QUOTE 4349470, member: 259"]Found out my wrist has been broken for nearly a month (A & E missed it the first time).

I have to see wrist surgeon on Wednesday and the worst case is I might have to get it rebroken.

So no cycling for a while. [/QUOTE]

When I was 20, I found out that my wrist had been broken when i was 13 after I sent to have it x-rayed when another break was being investigated. I was told it was fine but that the chip from my previous break was floating around in the joint and causing problems. Guess what i was told for the 1st break... : whistles:. It was another 15 years and 11 operations (several being 5 procedures at once and leaving me in hospital for 8 days at a time) before my wrist was OK again. I no longer feel pain in it solely because i had all the necessary nerves removed after threatening to do it myself if necessary.

Strangely enough, these stories give me hope. I am in the midst of trying to investigate pain in my foot which I think is a result of being trodden on by a huge horse 15 years ago! All the xrays come back marked 'normal', when it clearly isn't. Nevertheless, that's bad news @User259, gws.

see above...

That was a mammoth day @SatNavSaysStraightOn. Hope you can rest for a few days!

Thanks. And yes once evening meal is made and a little cleaning done. It's rather dusty and previous occupants not to good on house work BUT it's cheap $350 AUD for the 9 nights and SILENT and I slept through from 8pm to 2am before my bladder had other ideas... it's also dark thankfully. Needed my mobile to find the door! :whistles:

There's always here. And I'll have plenty of spare space including a spare bedroom or two out land to camp on of you wish. It was another sunny day, blue skies and only-4C again last night. Not sure what tonight is but at-2C already... expecting another warm day +16C today and had breakfast outside out at least 2nd breakfast... hoping to sit out on the for some of tomorrow.

Back to bed now.

Not really. It was the eastbound part of the M3 where there are roadworks and a 50mph limit. Traffic was heavy and we were actually doing less than 50.

The baby was in a baby seat in the front passenger seat. I don't know whether he might have been distracted...

I thought babies weren't supposed to be in the front? Good thing no one was badly hurt, quite a nasty shock for you though
