Getting old but not past it

We ordered a new mattress on line yesterday ( Emma) and it is delivered tomorrow. Quick service I say.
The old one is now on top of the landing, waiting for the Council to take it away. It is a free service but it might take 3 weeks before they come and we must leave it outside which I won't do until we get a date.

No but I love Yorkshire so best wishes to all my Yorkshire friends.
Excellent ride to Lytham in lovely weather. To my delight a great cycling buddy turned up out of the blue. He's been off the bike with an injury for four months so it was a complete surprise to find him at the meet point. 74 miles at 14.2avg!!! We paced him and I spent a lot of time on the front. It's what you do for a good friend.
Took sandwiches again. Cafe stop budget is £5 which is coffee and a teacake. The way prices have gone it’s a sandwich, banana and fig roll in the jersey pocket. Cost of living is forcing economies. Cafe prices are rocketing up here. Hard to get food and a coffee without spending £9/10.

Been raining here too. Our squash player has gone out. He did well though and took it to 5 sets.
I think he lost in 4, but you could be meaning someone else. I do get mixed up sometimes! Was he the guy playing the very good Indian chap in the quarter finals?

Very wet. Very green. So good here. A neighbour's son and his family were up from Peterborough for the weekend. He showed me pics of his lawn, completely brown and cracks in the soil. He said its the same all over his area.

Not me, or my bike.
Does a carbon seat post bend?
There's another three/four inches in the seat tube
He's 6'1" and 18 stone.

Carbon seat posts can and do snap. With that weight and potential pressure on the seat post he's taking a chance, a dangerous one. 3-4 inches isn't enough. Needs a bigger bike.
Just took another look at the pic. That set up is ridiculous.

It's the difference in height of the handlebars and saddle that made me wonder about it. Saddle height is around the 44" mark.
If I say it's the same person who spent 10 hours going nowhere, according to strava, would it make any difference?

I'm 5'6" - that's 66". I'd need a step ladder to get on that saddle. 🤣
10 hours? Perhaps he got stuck on his seat post?
