Sunny here in Poshshire. It's a council tax thing.

So we can take the mick out of you now for spouting all that crap about gas guzzlers.

 

[Drago]

You can, although I my defence owning a gas guzzler and not using it is perhaps better than owning one and doing the school run.

If it weren't for the prospect of SAR callouts I wouldn't have a car at all, would have no need or desire for one,

You could keep the Smart car, tow it to within 5 miles of your SAR meetings then drive it the final leg. Best of both worlds. Drive a decent motor whilst keeping your green credentials.

Ok Postman has an important day tomorrow,hospital,then a few diy jobs if all is ok.Then i have marked out a PIE RIDE in memory of my neighbour and our pal Vernon.I intend to do one each year till i can no longer get my leg over. So it is to Skipton which has one of his fave pie shops.I know i can get to there,then i can decide to either train it back or reverse the route and make it a 64 mile ride.Next two weeks i will be doing it,retirement ain't it grand.

You can get a step through when that happens.

I'd rather you didn't. I was just a bit sick in my mouth then.

It feels a little embarrassing, explaining to the consultant that, yes I am a pensioner, yes I have just broken my ankle falling over, and yes, I am hoping to ride 1200km next month (actually about 1600km, but I didn't tell him that). It's not a bad break, and I have a good physio, so see how it goes.
