I see my neighbour carrying an exercise bike and a few other bits of keep fit equipment into her flat.

That will give her things to hang clothes on but surely a clothes horse would have been cheaper

Been there, done that. I hate indoor exercise so will never be tempted again. Even regretting buying a Concept 2 as I only used it a few times over the winter months.

I just don't see the appeal of a bike that doesn't go anywhere!

On my physioterrorist's advice, I bought a turbo trainer. It did help but I found it mind-numbingly boring and I haven't looked at it since I was given the okay to cycle on the road again.

MrsPete asked me to get her some new slipper thingies like she has now (but new.. Obv!)
Imagine my surprise, I kid you not, when THEY WERE THE CORRECT ONES!!

Did you take your shirt off and run around the room waving it?

Love it, I've not really posted in here for ages, I'd forgotten about bin news.

No.. I was too shocked to do anything, actually! 😂

I'm assuming it's a good sign that staff members are coming and asking me to fix their bikes between making bikes ready for sale; it seems that word of mouth is that the new guy in the bike workshop can do the job.

On the other hand, now I know what computer techs feel like...

Warm, grey and blustery here chez Casa Reynard.

Another day working in sleep deficit. Hey ho... I have spent the morning skinning and chopping tomatoes to make another batch of that kashmiri style chutney. It's boring and you need asbestos fingers to do the peeling after dunking the tomatoes in boiling water, but it's gotta be done. After that, chopping a pound of apples and a pound of onions is easy. Oh, and a large chunk of ginger.

I will do some more writing later, while I wait for the chutney to cook.

And the Hundred starts this evening. My team i.e. Southern Brave are featuring in the opening match, which is live on TV. There isn't a franchise for this neck of the woods (London or Brum, really?!?!) so Hampshire / Sussex it is.

Anyways, it is almost time for luncheon.

Just had a very brief rain shower on our walk around the block

Time to go to the bank and change the standing order for the rent.

The company that makes them, VeryBritishProblems have a few that make me chuckle.

Similar to when I broke my Femur, again the Physio suggested I buy a static bike/turbo trainer, I got a Trike instead on the basis I could get to places.

Afternoon cuppa went down to quickly

Showered and changed. Much more comfortable.
