[byegad]

The call centre types will soon do in your mental health. I know I've worked in two!

Edit.. Even more!

after having cold manflu black death, i went out for a spin, to put it delicately my lungs had a good clean 20miles in i puled over for a bit of spirited yodelling with a stutter*, i could feel the difference when i set off again a bit light headed from all the oxygen. i think you get a good massage from riding the trike the vibration must shake every thing loose.

*sounding like a hardened 60 a day smoker first thing in the morning.

this kid rides his chair like i ride my trike...... well almost i would just shatter

as there is not enough room in the new office, i have come up with a solution, elderly people in Rotherham can let the council use one of there rooms as a office, the old people get a bit of company and help with the expenses. every one is a winner.
if we don't get enough volunteers we can just select some at random.

Now which, 'lucky resident' gets you Mark? Hopefully some poor old soul who is deaf, blind and a bit mental.

Before you ask... I don't live in Rotherham, so think of someone else.

i was thinking of going to houses/bungalows at random to start with and see which has best tea cake ect. it has not been put forward yet so i think a bit of beta testing needs doing. i have written a letter explaining what i am doing to the residents so it will be all official like. i even done it in purple crayon*

*ran out of blue.... well it had a accident....... i occidentally swallowd it. it tasted lemony, or i might have imagined that!

i have to park out back in the yard near the skip. i am aloud to come through the executive car park under the building* as a dispensation to get to the lifts. but i might have to go up the big ramp** and around to the front of the building as i am struggling to get through the swing doors near the lifts and am damaging them. next week i have to phone a care taker on the way in so he can come and hold the doors open for me. the doors up on my floor are ok i bash on them with the rubber end of my crutch and if some one hears me they come and let me in. i am so grateful and lucky i work for such caring and inclusive a employer in a brand new building***.

*god forbid one of them gets bird poo on one of there "worth more than my house" cars.
**a good 10 to 15 mins push, but a good work out.
*** i am going to enrol in night classes for sarcasm as i have problems spotting it and teeth unclenching

I would agree that some bet-a testing should be done.


Crayons have a curious smell too - I've wondered of what it reminds me ...

 

[byegad]

OK I need some support. (No not the one Mark keeps wanting me to model!)

After a week off the road with a sore throat, then another week with a bad cold and a third week with a sore throat and Asthma affected by the cold and taking steroids for the Asthma and a fourth week with the Asthma and yet another sore throat and antibiotics for the throat.

I'm getting the QNT out tomorrow and...





wait for it!


Going for a ride!

Wish me luck!

put a balaclava on back to front. this will keep your face warm, stop you from frightening the kids and stop your nose acting like a drag shoot, slowing you down. please make sure some one videos you ride as it is something i look forward to watching, if you can cross the ring road as part of your ride that would make it a bit more entertaining

we here at recovery HQ are very excited that some one is getting better, though a bit disappointed its not me. but you go on get better don't mind me no, no, no, your cured mate, not a bye-your leave or any thing. you cant go around being cured its unsanetery for one thing and what will the neighbours say. nurse! quick bring me my vintage police whistle a feather duster, 3lbs of lemon jelly and don't forget the Wellington.

i did my normal Sunday morning ride today in the sun waved and said hi to 20+ riders at different parts of my ride and got three back must have been day of the grumpy grumps never mind it was a nice day for a ride and the first sunny one for weeks.

Cheers Mark. Glad to see there are no hard feelings as i recover!

'Yah! Boo! Sucks to nanny!'

As we used to shout when we set fire to Nanny Alucard's* coffin as she slept through the daylight. Happy days at Byegad Towers. Sigh!!!

*I suspect that was not her real name.

More when I've been out and coughed a lot and hopefully got back under my own steam.

It is very kind of you Byegad, I am sure, but really you did not need to pass your cold on to me.

 

[byegad]

Well I'd finished with the beast, so thought someone else should have a go.

 

[markg0vbr]

as you know i dont like to mention it but i am a bit poorly my self

it is the bone pain, i get wrapped up, all in wool and keep warm with heat pads and blankets. i am on codeine phosphate but feel very drunk with them, but it is a good buzz.

working full time is killing me, i should be part time at the end of the month, i hope.

the wheelchair is a god send. they now reckon my ostio is down to not walking much if any, for the last ten years with all the back pain and all the cycling, with the chair, i have been shopping in Rotherham for 4hrs!!! and felt fine

i have to keep moving and walk as much as i can. but is is so much easer and less painful to bike, handbike and wheelchair.

walking is old fashioned and vastly over rated i think, if god intended us to walk he would not have invented the axle "as you know wheels can be any shape it is the axle that is the important bit and was invented by Sidney ugg when he was a under graduate at what was to be come exciter polytechnic some 9000 years later, when a fellow class mate stuck his finger through the middle of his pizza held it up and spun it around slowly so he could eat the stuffed crust first."


Speicher awwwww blesss have a nice cupa and put your feet up. that big mean byegad been spreading him self about again. he douse it on out of spite i am sure. i will send over a virtual box of dark chocolates* and a bunch of pre-emptive grapes**

*the best kind as they are not fattening
**they are grapes you eat before you plant the vines so you know if it is worth all the effort of growing them, apparently if they are rubbish and you do not plant the vines a time paradox is avoided because of a loop hole, the universe has so much going on as long as you don't mention it, it gets over looked and accounting can just fudge the books a bit and every one is happy.

 

[markg0vbr]

er not byegad

i think that belonged in there some were but cant for the life of me think were?



lard ditto.

 

[Speicher]

Thank you for the box of virtous chocs. They taste even better than expected considering they have no calories.
