I thought I'd entered a Time Warp today whilst driving from Norwich to Newmarket...
First, a small red car with a very large Christmas tree strapped to the roof. Then two snow ploughs on the A11..

Correct me if I'm wrong: it is still September, isn't it? 🤔

In some shops one side of the sessional is Halloween the other is Christmas, at one point quality save had Halloween, Christmas and gardening range. So it all gone a bit mad, M&S the Christmas food to order is now open.

Nothing missed, I think.
It was just another fit/seizure. The no memory bit is just another part of them. The blood came from a cut on the head, which is sore, but glued up.

Thanks for asking.

Look after yourself, we need you.

Car passed its MOT albeit with an advisory on a couple of brake pipes. They'll last till next year said the garage. The phone call to say it say it ready to collect came mid shop in the big Lidl at Knaresbough. Immediately on the leaving there on the ebike I encountered a brief downpour.

Today I've been able to play music at greater than background volume for the first time in many, many months*.


*7 months ago a then 9 month old lab/pointer came to live with us, and since then I've not been able to close the office door during the day. The other home worker is now back to the office every other Friday.

T'other days ride down Sustrans 6 was a bit damp.. I might head there this afternoon to check if the water is 6' deep under the bridge.

Maybe you need bigger wheels.

That's a horrible job to do
It's one all teenagers should be made to do , to ready them for the life ahead

Reminds me of the favourite job to give apprentices in a teleprinter workshop - cleaning governor slip rings. You ended up with fingers that looked like burnt sausages.

As I'm 5'5" and the water is about 6' deep under the bridge, I doubt the size of the wheels would matter 😂

I set up software defined radio on my computer, beats buying a base scanning radio, shortwave radio, AM-FM radio, and a lot of other communication devices. You do have to be able to do some computer geekery, but this follows a set recipe. It also helps to have all the requisite build-up of computer bits and bobs accumulated over 20 years of digital photography.

Good to have a decent aerial too.

Had to move from my chair to the sofa as there's a bright light shining through the window.
