I feel so much better now that my office is on fire. I mean, I don't feel like I'm missing anything, ya know?

Hopefully, normal service will soon be resumed ...
Lots of paperwork has been (mainly) completed.
Celebration of Irene's Life was yesterday in a mates pub and was quite lovely with family & friends from near and far.

Moving on slowly..👍

second attempt to sell the giant on fleabay got to £46 , sod that i would rather keep it than part with it for that much so im glad i set a reserve . I could sell the parts for more than that !!!, sold the tiagra 4600 shifters last week for £34 and this bike has 105 .

We have this at work as well: I keep the price as low as I can, but we also replace brake cables, brakes, tyres and tubes: add a 50€ flat fee for the work and this quickly tips over 100€; cue much sucking of teeth from customers who seem to expect a high-spec bike for about 25€ at the outside. Yesterday One customer looked at a bike for 175€, and said "I'll buy it for a hundred". I pointed out that it had cost us more than that to repair, so I wouldn't be reducing the price.
