The Retirement Thread

[Paulus]

Good morning all.
It's not raining and I can see some blue sky.
Today's main task is to replace the gear cable on my Brompton, I noticed last week that it is fraying and the gear changes are rather sluggish, and 3rd gear often doesn't engage.

You are a lady aren't you ?
Edit
I dont mean lady=female....I mean lady as in posh!!

What have I missed?

Dave has come out as trans. His preferred pronoun is Optimus Prime.

PeteXXX has been sued for trademark infringement by the makers of XXX mints.

Mo has been named in the Epstein Files.

So a fairly normal few days for this bunch.

Morning all

Staying in today as I've someone coming round to buy a bike.
May as well cut the lawn out front with the ride on. I adjusted the toe in on it, so hopefully it's steering better now.
Green bin men have just arrived so I'll have somewhere to dump the cuttings.

Sunshine came shining softly through my window today tra la still a Donavan fan and indeed its going to be a sunny day so off for a spin in a while. Sent of for some erigeron [fleabane] to edge the raspberry bed, i do like plants which are a bit anarchic/free range but dont get out of hand.
