I've been car hunting by trike a Vauxhall Astra est, but the opening at the tailgate was an inch too low for my trike to fit in .............gets home ........what if I let all the air out of back wheel = lower .

I've spent the morning doing online signatures on student record forms for a university where I'm an external examiner. That's hours lost.

watched a movie last night, set at the college my girlfriend went to & that I visited a lot. disappointed neither of us remember the carousel. regardless, the movie was enjoyable for me. the central characters are teachers & students. the movie is "The Rewrite"

If you have a large garage, you could fit a tank in it, and still have room for some bicycles.

someone in our neighborhood has a tank. if I remember, I'll snap a pic

Spent my lunch break sorting out the car part junk yard that my son had turned my garage into. I really don't know how he managed to strip and replace his car engine given the way he works - total chaos.

Spent some time chasing round the garage, and behind plant pots for various sockets. Managed to find everything bar a 10mm T30 bit and a 10mm deep impact socket - I suspect the socket's fallen behind one of my storage units as that's where I found two. All his spare 'engine bits' are now in three boxes.

Update yes, but I still don't like not having a spare wheel

Hope it works and you don't have it putting you of riding the trike.

Lunch negotiated. One slice of wholemeal toast with rillettes de porc, one slice of wholemeal toast with manchego cheese, a pear, half a punnet of strawberries and two

Letting that tamp down a bit before heading off for a bicycular bimble.

Oh, and my second locket has turned up.

Yeah... OK, in summer, your wearing less, but it still does that in winter when I'm wearing several more layers.

Sold 2 things on the bay at the weekend .

Haven't been paid .

I always pay as soon as possible when I buy something on the Bay of E.

The only time I had an issue was when the seller gave me the wrong paypal address, and neither of us realized until the payment got refunded to my account.

Argh,

The pop up gazebo is now trashed. Son left it up on Saturday (working on cars) and it's not just snapped the side rails (which I can repair) the leg is snapped too. I am tempted to bin the old gazebo too - that's not pop up, and it will save me the hassle of trying to get my son to take the blooming thing down when the wind picks up. Nothing like a thunder storm with a bit of wind to smash gazebos.

Not the most thoughtful chap then.

Yes. It is the same here.
It's only happened once before. It's all the inconvenience of having to put it up for sale again, that is if they don't pay . I'm sure they used to have the option of offering it to the under bidder but that seems to have gone . It makes me angry !

This afternoon whilst out for a short ride I went to a cafe that's been open since last February. Only hardly anyone knows about it, with the cafe being in the far corner of a small business park.

It's a lovely little place, but the owner doesn't want much publicity so she "can keep the riff-raff out". Well that didn't work!
