Thought they'd stopped that refund on taking them back years ago. Local calor centres haven't done them, this century.

No they still do it.

Bad for the environment that stuff, or so I am told.

It's OK, it's offset by not having a diesel car.......

It's the modern creosote substitute stuff, which to be fair looks and smells much like the real thing. Still. it's supposed to be all soft and cuddly to bunny rabbits, and that's why I've have to pep it up a bit - A dollop of depleted uranium, half a lire of anthrax, and a teaspoon of caesium salt, and it's as rampant and manly as the olde stuff.

Started my 312 training today. 60 miles, 4900 feet, 14.8 avg, 4:04 ............I suspect if I complete the ride I'll have to be lifted off the bike

I did that once. Lost my balance and went arse over tits into the grass verge. Lucky for me no one saw me. I was more concerned about my bike.

I've had to put the fire on in the lounge, it's a touch chilly here.

No central heating on here . MrsP has mentioned that the heating should go on for an hour or so in the evening, to test out the new heated towel rail. Also we have 3 6 week old kittens and she said they might get cold.
I stood strong.
