Nowt like starting your day with the taste of a stinky diesel cars exhaust in your mouth.
I got propper smoked out by a " should be shot " motorist.
Don't know which is worse , having it cycling or being stuck in a van car etc.

Trebor ES time

Morning. A couple of my wife's pot plants are having a bit of a lie down. They must have had a rough night.
I know how they feel, I bit my tongue yesterday and it felt like it was swelling up in the night. It's okay now.

The day is full of joy's. I've got to have a tooth filling soon ,I'm feeling groggy and my arms ache.

Oh! And the cat's have gone mad and running around like mad things.

How to do a break fall?

Just tried doing that BBC How to Stay Young get up off the floor from a cross legged sitting position without using your hands.
I managed to do it once just. The second attempt launched me across the floor.

I'd have a problem getting into your starting position.

I'm back after having two fillings. I was thinking that dentist's might be good at getting out and putting in loose ball bearings in axles or bottom brackets.

I'm back also, car is the cleanest it's been since I bought it last year


Wonder if they service bikes too?

The point of that exercise as a vague measure of fitness is that you have to get down and then get back up again without using your hands at all. Doing that gives you an optimum score. Every time you use a hand or an elbow or a knee to help, either sitting down or standing up, your score increases/decreases (I can't remember which). It's supposed to demonstrate core strength and balance I think.

Never had either of those. The despair of my PE teachers.

I cant decide if you have a food job, or you just act out worst nightmare scenarios for travellers

I think he's taken over from Judith Chalmers.
