shshshshsh bless he has drooped off
Zzzzz...ZZzzzzz...Zzzzzzzzz.

i have been engaged in a strategic reorganization and evaluation exorcise (boss wanted some crap shifting from one locker on the 2nd floor to a locker on the 3rd floor)

a grandparent cure for blocked nasal passages is to shove a bike pump up one and pump vigorously.
in my house a cold is seen as a weakness and the kids take advantage, being a burly not lumpy jumper, i only ever get smooth jumper flue.
several days not stand up and large bowls of stew, make ones thick chest hair lustrous again.

warning i have just been informed it is dangerous to put a bike pump up your nose to clear your head out!
a the safety elf was quit agitated :blink: by my perpetuating this treatment, his recommendation is a knitting needle shoved up there and swirled about.

it was a historic day, to day, the mayor complete with paparazzi came to cut the ribbon on the new 120ft of pavement at the edge of the village. it was deeply moving and will live long in my memory of historic events in and around Rotherham.

Now she's puddled! Page 81 and she admits to being puzzled. Sigh!:banghead:

I've been puzzlated since I first met the SBGG. Why is he here? Who brought him here? What can we do to make him go away? These were just some of the questions i asked myself, passers-by and even the SBGG himself.

Sadly my Universal Translator (TM Star Trek) was broken that day so I only got one word in three from his Good Godliness and had to guess the rest.

Since then the West Yorkshire Revolutionary Committee for the Workers, Layabouts and Benefit Scroungers, the Yorkshire National government, the UK government, both the Commons:evil: and the Lords:cheers: , the EU and the UN have failed to come up with a solution. Notice no English National government, a sad lack in the UK's range of the witless and wise ruling classes. Maybe if we'd had one we could have found a solution from them?

Not if our experience up here is anything to go by - but you might have a very expensive new house for it !

the interesting bit you dont see on the record is the number and condition* of dead animals i see on my rides.
in the nice weather, the shapely defined profile of cycling i promote powering along in my Lycra body suit or mankiney.

i really need to get my back saved again, the trim at the front was only partly successful, my plan of trimming it to look like a map of Yorkshire failed as i did not take into account the affect of using a mirror, it ended up back to front! this is ok as car drivers see it ok when looking back via there mirrors.

i am just siting down to look through the calendar and book my holidays, i will be at York again, i may re do the ride i did last year up to grassington then across to york on the way of the roses.
the lack of enthusiasm from my kids for the trip is heartening.


*squishiness, bloating, maggot ridden.
