I dropped a package off to the Hermes shop a short while ago. I was going to ride there, but didn't ☔

Tis damp out.

My decking is a bit oil slicky as I 'oiled' it last week, but the rain is just 'sitting' on the wood.

No Tuner section.

Post a picture of the back panel and I should be able to tell how the speakers connect.

Thanks but I have figured it out! I need to get four of these:

Also I need to get an FM cable with a male plug. I have one but it has a female plug, which is probably why it won't fit!

I've just discovered that the coffee I'm now enjoying comes from a place just over a mile away. I bought it in a supermarket but I can't remember which one. It's a sort of Big Issue Not-for-Profit business called Change Please that trains homeless people as baristas (not that that's going to work right now....). I think I might order a few bags from them.

What sort of compost do I need to repot this?

Mild, bright, sunny and breezy here chez Casa Reynard.

Something has triggered my hayfever, and I'm coughing and spluttering. It's not just me, mum is equally coughing and spluttering. Hopefully the forecast rain will damp off whatever's causing it.

Puttered about doing general stuff this morning. And I've put my big girl pants on and started cutting the lower chassis rails for the Higman. While doing so, I've realized that I can actually bond the link for the front wishbone directly into the structure, rather than make it separately and then have to drill into what are fairly thin sections.

Coughing here too - rather far away tho'.

I have been cleaning up bits of the frame I found yesterday. I gave the leather saddle a clean and put some leather treatment on it . This afternoon I started work on some chrome work and the rusty paint on the forks and frame with lime juice.
I think I have figured out how the bike got into the state it is in .
It would seem that the front brake blocks caught fire whilst braking hard going down a very steep hill. The fire then set light to the plastic front mudguard . It would seem that the rider had abandoned the bike as the fire continued to burn and set light to the front tyre causing the flame damage to the frame and forks .

Two things this morning.First I have a lady friend who has sent me two e mails in a week.She likes the sound of me and wants to get to know me.The way the message is laid out,she is either Russian or African waiting for the next message,she is only after my pension,secondly a phone message that tells me Pay Pal have put a limit on my account due to irregularities,shame that because I dont have a p.p account never had never will.So that's all for now folks.

After a bunch of emails from PO telling me I needed to pay £2.99 on a 'help.com' site or 'myfees.com site, I've had one from Lloyds telling me a payment was attempted by a 'NEW DEVICE' from my Lloyds account ( which I don't have) and to go to a alert.com site.

A fluffy blanket.

 

[Reynard]

I put my big girl pants on and cut all the remaining parts for the lower chassis rails. Am now in the process of sticking them all together.

In other news, my ears are bunged. You may need to shout should you require my attention.

 

[Reynard]

Having a break and some thinking time.

Eight days later than promised the farmer turned up asking for money. "Where's the hay rolls Mr farmer"? "On your land, I spaced them out on your field next to the potager". "Oh good, thanks, I wondered what the noise was from the garden".

Sky's red, does it mean it will be fine tomorrow?

Trouble is, tomorrow is click & collect, might not get a chance for a ride. Certainly not the route I've worked out and want to try.

 

[randynewmanscat]

Skys red, does it mean it will be fine tomorrow?

Nope. It just means the skies red. It will probably rain tomorrow where you are, I saw the foreast. I just checked again, rain.

 

[Reynard]

Right, it's almost time to feed the cats, and then it will be time to feed me.

Lamb bhuna tonight.
