Mundane News

[Illaveago]

Was it fry up night last night as we had sausage, egg, beans and chips?

I wandered off and read a thread about " Bike Fit" regarding back pain! I came up with a load of conclusions after reading and watching some videos. Mainly that it is best not to go too far so that pain doesn't set in and if anything should happen you can easily walk home. Make plenty of stops to admire the view. A crafty way of disguising that you are puffed out!
I also decided that " Bob" ( from the video) needs a bigger bike. He looked too hunched up.
So after watching the videos and taking the information on board I will carry on as I am.

I may be developing paranoia!
I just read another thread about the adverse effects of long cycle rides!

Could we please have some cheerful news for a change ?

Sure. Today is Sunday.


My pleasure. Happy to oblige.

I've just had a bacon sandwich, now it's time to walk the dog.

Is it a " Who Won It ?"

And one of the really good things about Sundays is that B&Bs and hotels are quiet and therefore cheaper. So, I'm off to Canterbury for the night.

Just put my bread through it’s second toasting cycle.

Now I’ll leave it to cool for a second time in the toaster before applying salted butter and Roses Lime Marmalade.

Two toastings are required to get the required level of crispiness.

Warburtons Seeded Batch in case anyone’s interested.

Is you hand slowly getting better ?

Thank you, slowly is the word.
Last Thursday, I had the plaster cast removed, stitches out and new dressing on.
But I have a new plaster cast on.
It's got velcro fastening so the physio can take it off when I go back in 2 weeks. I can at least use my fingers a bit more now. (tying shoe laces is slightly quicker now!)
I saw a physio today too. Right hand to stay in the splint to support the thumb and don't do anything with it that hurts, which is basically anything that involves opening my hand wide to hold anything. but
I can do fine movements with my right hand. (so I can hold something as wide or as heavy as a packet of Weetabix but putting pressure on to turn on taps or open door handles is hard.)
She said definitely another 3 weeks healing for the right thumb
Going to be a long time for the left thumb and therefore cycling again.
I know the healing process is going to be slow but it is going the right way and other stuff can wait.
I have found new ways of doing things one handed that involve my teeth, my body and even my feet.
In the meantime, I'm getting the groceries delivered, going out for lovely walks and spending too long on CC!

I agree with choice of bread, butter and lime marmalade but I like to eat it immediately while the toast is still hot.

Oh yes, deffo Warburtons seeded batch. I like it toasted with salted butter, but with grapefruit marmalade. I think it was @Fab Foodie who said that Warburtons was the "cleanest" bread factory. He may, of course, have used a more tecknow techhow accurate word.

I do not usually add any salt to food, not even veggies when cooking. I even have crisps without salt, but unsalted butter on toast just doesn't taste right to me.

How much! £2000 for 2 jackets!

It was on the Sunday Politics show just now. 2 jackets were stolen from a shop in Bath. The thief was caught and the jackets returned.
