Is this jealous dad syndrome. 😁 Or some religious thing? ✝️

Its because Drago assumes the lads y fronts are the same as his and he wouldn't want his daughter inflicted by that !
We saw him at the Tivoli in Wimborne on his " In Town " tour, a great night out. Told our daughter that we were going to see him and she remarked that she'd had a lift in his car once. Turns out that when she was at Uni in London one of her fellow students was his daughter. A few of them had gone out on the town and his daughter got him out of bed to give them a lift back to the student digs, she said he was quite grumpy 😁

resumed my attack on my new hill today...would like to say i romped over it but nope, had to stop for a breather half way up it 
not so long ago i would keep pedalling until my lungs were bursting and heart exploding but rather like an aging moris minor with 100k on the clock it mightn't be a good idea to see how high it will rev 
i'll get there in the end!
Have now got a glorious pile of horse poo to get my roses growing

That's a fast laptop you have there!
As, I guess, you know the real speed limit, other than the fibres maximum speed, is the equipment speed.
Our mobiles manage similar speeds to those you show at 35' from the router (long lounge/diner) and the laptop about 10% faster up & down).
We had a new router installed last month and the engineer tested the system with a chunky looking phone that gave 980mbps a foot or two from the router. Which is close to the advertised 1Gb.
All these figures are way faster than we need now, but obviously future-proof those homes having such speeds available.
AFAIK S.Korea are installing networks in multiples of Terrabytes! Amazing!

I understand how you feel going up a steep hill. There is one round here which is very short, about 50 metres, but steep. I used to ride it but puffing hard at the top. Now , I ride half of it and walk the rest, which is the steepest part, as I am concerned that my ticker may give up on me as I am not a youngster any more, 75 tomorrow.

Happy birthday, in advance 😊
She got her Dad out of bed to give them a lift and he was grumpy. I wonder why that was
