Gosh, I don't need new wheels, but these carbon wheels on the for sale bit are rather nice :wub:
You just like owning stuff!! I know that feeling. There's a thread on here about handle bar bags. There's a really cool one which is almost identical to mine.......I want it. I don't need it. One or other will probably end up in a cupboard. The desire to buy it is starting to outweigh all reason........

Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.

You are just like my husband. I should ban him from the internet :laugh:

re Bassenthwaite and Derwent Water....... possibly one has to know the area to fully appreciate how much water this involves.......quite unreal.:hungry:
I was just thinking how bad that sounds! (I have had a couple of holidays in Keswick.)

I finished the first series of The Killing last night. It is scary how little of it I remembered from watching it when it was first shown here.

My pal and I only got 5 minutes into episode 3 of Bosch. Both of us were struggling with the combination of accents and sound quality so we were not keeping up with what was going on. I am going to watch it solo on headphones instead so I can have it louder without annoying the neighbours. (It occurred to me later that I have been watching lots of foreign dramas with subtitles - maybe I should start putting them on when I can't make out dialogue in English! :laugh:)

I was having a whinge last night about how unfit I feel. My friend laughed and said that I do hundred mile bike rides that would half-kill her or her other friends. I pointed out that it was apples and oranges - she was comparing me to unfit non-cyclists, whereas I was comparing myself to fit cyclists!

A wet morning here but the forecast suggests that it will dry up mid-afternoon. I will probably nip out and do my 6 km loop on the way to the shops.

My god. I was about to look at something on the internet, read Colins post and now I can't bloody well remember what I wanted to look at:wacko:
Ha ha!

I was much worse when still a boozer... I once rented the same DVD twice in a few days and got halfway through the second time before remembering that I had already watched it. The really scary thing was that I did it for a 3rd time at the end of the week!

PS I DO remember mentioning THAT before! :laugh:

We now have sunshine and a nice breeze so I got a load of washing done and it's blowing in the wind:laugh:

Still can't remember what I wanted to look at though

Morning all...It was raining here first thing but its brightened up a bit now. Going out for a ride later as our Sunday Ghost Ride has been cancelled due to a deluge we're going to have tomorrow morning, shame really as I was looking forward to going up Swains Lane :ohmy: which was part of the route.

That Van Gogh exhibition looks fab @PaulSB I quite like an art exhibition! :okay:

Enjoy your day folks!
