Why not get hold of a cheap bicycle and keep it just for the indoor trainer ?
The only suitable bike I had has been given away but I do have a trainer up in the greenhouse.
Drove me mad and just did not get on with it.
Now that I think further on this my old Dawes is over at my son’s house on the mainland. May just dig it out next time I am over and give it another try.
Different muscles used on an upright but better than nothing.

@Reynard - Do you have an opinion on someone who keeps eighteen cats in a three-bedroomed house? :unsure:

Not really, because that sounds like my friend Linda. :blush: She has 12 cats in a slightly smaller house, but two cats are outdoor ferals, there's a big outside run they have access to 24/7, and the oldies stay glued to the boiler.

Actually, it sounds a lot like quite a few cat people I know. I'm unusual insomuch that I only have two cats. :laugh:
 
Toasted muffins and seafood cocktail for luncheon, along with a pear, a banana and two :cuppa:

I have finally drunk all of the leaf tea that I discovered my late father had stashed away here there and everywhere, so I have bought some different ones to try.

Today's trial was not a success. I do not like Yorkshire Tea. The flavour is "thin" and one-dimensional, plus it has a strong, bitter undertone which I find unpleasant. I will drink it, but I shan't be buying it again.

Tesco's Original that comes in a red packet is a good cheap everyday black leaf tea. In my opinion, of course - you may disagree.

We.ve got 6, of which 4 are rescues although one came wandering down the garden and has yet to leave (she was from Birmingham and due to a domestic incident was staying with a cousin of the owner in a house that backs onto ours), they'd found homes for the 4 kittens she'd had but not Mum but she came wandering to ours and liked it here. Cinders is from Wiltshire, found in a box in an abandoned house by grand daughter No.3 Merlin came from an advert in a local shop and was 'free to a good home' whilst Kizzy came from Maz's 'Avon rep' as an unwanted kitten her cat had had. Mo (Smokey) came from a friend round the corner whose 3 females all had a litter within 3 weeks of each other so she ended up with 11 kittens and the latest Winter was from grand daughter No. 4 who was forced to move from their rented house cos the landlord decided to sell up.

You hit the nail on the head ,definitely better than nothing ....."use them or loose them"

I've tried Tesco red label as it won a blind taste test on "Eat Well For Less"

It's OK, but a bit on the harsh side. Their gold label is eminently drinkable, however. :okay:

I’m liking this anti bot check. I’ll have more of this and less of the fire hydrants and cross walks please.
