Going to give in with Walkers crisps.... They have gone downhill over the years and more so in the last year.

Going to give Seabrook a go, any other suggestions for old fashioned tasting crisps?

Are they in the USA?

Yes, but I could always send some, you know. Provided they pass customs and the like.

You are a little east of Philo, I think that's the edge of their distribution area, outside of t'internut...

I have a whopping bruise on my knee that doesn't hurt. But my skinned elbow - that's *really* ouch.

Corker's Crisps - their factory is just a mile and a half away in a straight line. When the wind is in the right direction, I can smell them frying the crisps.

The owner also has a farm where they grow the tatties for the crisps.

Walkers Sunbites have renamed their multigrain snacks as Grainwaves.

The Lidl version of these are really very nice, especially the sweet chilli ones.

Getting the hang of this clipless lark. 14 enjoyable miles, which included negotiating a roundabout, some temporary traffic lights and a junction to join a trunk road. I didn't capsize this time.

Getting going and *then* clipping in seems to work well enough.

Now sat down with a post-ride and some green & blacks choccy.

Home made enchiladas for supper tonight.

I did another 40 laps (26.6 miles)around my local park this afternoon. I know it's safer than cycling on main roads and it's only a 3rd of a mile from home so no hassle getting home if i have a mechanical mishap,but i don't half have to deal with some idiots while up there! One bloke on a bso insisted on interacting me with me every time i passed him. He was wobbling all over the place which was annoying as he was on the left of the road,then the right,then back on the left and he kept saying "o reyt" to me. I grumpily replied 'hello' once and that to me was enough,but he obviously wanted me to say 'o reyt' back to him in a over emphasised Lancashire accent every time we passed,which i refused to do. Then i had the idiot who lets his horrible pug dogs run at cyclists then he shouts stuff like "what have i told you about running after bikes you idiots" You're the bloody idiot i thought,as he doesn't have them on leads. At one point i unclipped my left foot ready to shoe the gits if they got too close and paused a serious threat to my stability. I'm sure he lets them run riot hoping for a confrontation, as he glares at you as you pass.Then there was the idiot who was launching big sticks up into the trees trying to knock the conkers down. The self-gratification artist kept on launching the sticks even while i was passing at the time. You'd have thought he'd have waited till i passed. Not only that but he was about 40 years old! 'conkering' at 40 years of age,how immature is that?! So yes,it's a nice park and you're away from heavy traffic,but you don't half encounter some idiots while riding around it!
