Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.
I'm sure there were complaints last year as well

Got back from the lung tap and it went well...turns out breast cancer most likely will metastasize to the liver and lungs. The last cat scan indicates the tumors on the liver are 100% gone. The lung tap procedure today revealed the fluid wasn't in the lung but the pleural cavity which is not a likely cancer place. We will learn later what the fluid cause actually is. So nice to get some good news for a change.
Ye God's. I stumbled across The deal thread and wish I hadn't. I quickly excited stage left
I find it depressing, at least we have blue passports, mind you I visit Turkey up to a couple of time a year so does that mean I can bring back some of the great copy/knock off gear that they make out there. I certainly look forward to having many of our Turkish friends visit now it is easier for them to travel here.

I’d like to recommend a cure for the Lurgy. Yesterday I started feeling a bit rough, cough, sneeze, throat feeling like it was lined with carpet all coupled with the shivers and fatigue.
Ever the optimist I immediately backtracked a few days to ponder where I picked up the infection. Nothing sprang to mind although I do have intermittent contact with my three year old granddaughter.
I’d just started to update my will and note down the passwords to my online bank accounts so Mrs Tenkay could enjoy the Life of Riley when I had a thought. Rummaging through the freezer produced a suitably fiery curry. This combined with my first serious exploration of single malt whisky in the shape of a bottle of Aberlour seems to have done the trick. The nose is still a bit leaky and the chest a bit tight but I’m convinced that I’ve turned the corner 👍

Keep it a secret, this time next year we could be millionaires.

Good morning. Today I didn't sleep till 7.45. It's a mystery. Dark and cold. Forecast is for heavy snow at 8.00 and -2⁰C but feels like -5⁰. Supposed to improve this afternoon so I may be able to ride.
Nothing else planned. I may try to learn about embedding a Google calendar on the club website.

Started young, and still going.
Good morning all fellow retirees, another day in paradise beckons.
Awake early again this morning, I have fed the dog and Harry the tabby cat, and am now drinking the first mug of tea
It's going to be cold and cloudy today, so not a day for a bike ride.
I need to get to the local grocers for some fresh produce later on, so I may get on the bike just to go to the shops, but that is only a mile or so.
I think I have peaked too early.

Morning. 5 mile very slow plod done in an icy minus 2. I am getting slower every day. I had this faint hope that running every day might somehow encourage the nerves and muscles in my legs to repair themselves and get stronger, but the old legs just feel heavier and weaker than ever. I just keep reminding myself that I'm still managing way more that the majority of the population.

I forget where but some time ago I read that simply by exercising to the extent we do puts us in the top 10% of the population.Morning. 5 mile very slow plod done in an icy minus 2.
