In likelihood more of a riding to the shops for cat food bike.
Elswick Hopper Safeway- late 70s I guess- needs tubes and tyres, saddle and- eventually- replacement cables (outers not in best condition although gears seem OK and brakes work perfectly well). Not too rusty- not that I'm going to be restoring it- I expect to be using it later today. Got to straighten out that front 'guard too. The few bolts I've undone so far have not been stuck.
Going to need a big wicker basket and some lighting- maybe a cheap bottle dynamo.
