Fat chance...

I don't agree with it, but come 60 or 62 at latest I will find a way to be unemployable...

saw the old fella croak at 59 & never recieve a penny...

until then I will continue to graft (a bit) :okay:

When did the Zombie Apocalypse begin? :headshake:

All my bicycle commutes lately have been riddled with these lurching, meandering, shuffling half-living creatures. They shamble along, vacant looks on their faces, focused solely on the rectangular glowing objects they hold in their hands. I strongly suspect it is these objects that are somehow draining the souls out of these benighted people, leaving them brain-dead. I'm sorely tempted to approach every one of them, and tear the glowing objects from their hands, yelling "Live! Be free! Awake!", but somehow I think that might be misconstrued (and end up with me being sent to a funny-farm). :rolleyes:

Not wanting sound morose..
I lost a pal 4 year ago and his words were..
'Enjoy every day you wake..and get out ASAP'
I could have 'left' 18 month ago but stayed and took date they offered.
Not for much more funnily.

I intend to have fun...

I've just downloaded the latest quarterly Scottish Cycling and Walking mags ..good freebies CYCLING WALKING

Not solely restricted to peds unfortunately @victor ...

Tonight I am working in a rough arse town in South Manchester & I have seen at least a dozen cyclists cycle on the tracks through a tram station with 4ft deep concrete wall either side (so no where to get off if they meet a tram).

One of these, on his Genesis Croix De Fer shouted "tickets please" to 6 Revenue Protection guys as he cycled through (I'll bet he thought he was hilarious & the 1st to ever offer up such a monumentally rib tickling quip) might have got his ribs tickled by a big yellow tram though) the goon.

Just wide enough to fit into both tracks at once, so long as I have narrower tyres.
