Well, strictly speaking, my blood clotting illness of 2012/13 DID cut me off in as much of my prime, or at least as much as I had left at the time. I will never fully recover from that. I can still do some nice bike rides but there is a definite limit which is way below what it would have been otherwise.
I was reading about @PaulSB's great Fred Whitton effort at the weekend and feeling a bit sad that I will never get to do something like that again. I could do most of it if I went slowly enough, but that means it would probably take me a full day in mid-summer and I would have to be very careful on the steepest stuff (probably have to walk it) for fear of messing up my heart rhythm.

Maybe too easy, causing you to overlook the obvious.Well, my cryptic crossword skills let me down this time then!
You get there before "The Phantom Paper Pilferer"?

Just... Only about 5% of the papers were left. (I am assuming that the pile always starts off the same size, but I never go to the station early on weekdays (when the Metro is published) so I can't be sure.)

Second again. Lol.
Still a tad gusty out there but it’s dry. Suppose it’ll be yet another groundhog day for me.

Can't remember when I/we last ironed anything.I have risen! First!

Most things go in the tumble drier which has a setting for 'ready to wear' and even one for jeans.......I have no idea how it works but they come out crease free.
