Good morning fellow oldies.
A 1st for me this morning. I woke at 0600 (for a pee) and was going to stay up then decided to try getting back to sleep. IT WORKED^_^.....woke again at 0740.....a good result.
My gut was bad yesterday. MrsDs turn today. (Perhaps its because I mixed @classic33 concoction :wacko:)
You mixed "Liquid Pickford's", did you drink it as well?

Well that was an interesting bimble on the new bike ^_^ didnt go far in case i was walking home but no problems. It felt incredibly efficient compared to old faithful largely down to the much thinner tyres. Purposely went over some rough tarmac to make sure the front wheel is ok- no worries. Was a tiny bit reluctant to get into 7th gear but hopefully that will polish out, all in all very happy with it.
The cheap panniers i bought are crap though! that'll teach me for buying budget, attachment points are woeful and a zip has started to malfunction....

Adjustable stem? Quite good for getting lower as the back gets more flexible I would think.

I've just done the ironing in 00:06:40 a new flat record :smile:

I've got a sewing machine :hyper:
What other shape would you expect!

So that's the ironing done. Bloody mountain of it. Breakfast eaten. Time for a quick shower, catch up email and then collect son No.2.

Then it's mighty Rovers time. We are currently sixth!!! :eek: I'm not sure how. When we went away Rovers were 7th, I come home we're 6th......... possibly if I go on five more little holidays we will be top of the league???
