Yes, it aint ANOTHER sane person, its A sane person. BTW, the reason pawl is so feisty may have something to do with Marmite, that acme of umame goodness. (Acme, not acne).
The checker line at the grocery store was 8 deep and a veritable 6'4" blonde goddess just in front of said,"Go to #4, they just opened." My question would be " Since she was facing straight ahead, how did she know I was gazing worshipfully at her posterior"? No wonder she sent me elsewhere.
Eyes in the back of her head, or a mirror/window in front of her.

Morning. Everyone remember to put their clocks back? :laugh:

We have rain due sometime between 7 and 8 depending on which forecast I go by. The foot is still achy but I need some air. Using Dr Google I think it could be Sesamoiditis with a smattering of plantar fasciitis thrown in. I should really try and cycle and get the weight off it for a while but the cycling mojo is lacking and the weather isn’t great. Maybe needing to wear boots rather than trainers for my walks too.

Sadly it’s one thing I don’t enjoy. I’m quite scared of water and can barely manage a breadth of breast stroke. Lol. Shame as I know it is a great, non weight bearing exercise.
May be time to ease up a little...though heaven forbid me giving advice :rolleyes::laugh: im wary of overdoing it and have been increasing my mileage bit by bit. I used to run a lot about 10m a day but then got a injury that i just couldnt shake and gave up in the end. I want to keep cycling as im getting to really like it -im on about 20m per day now ^_^
ps time to buy some smart new boots :laugh:

I got up at 06.50.....only to find it was 05.50:wacko:.
Dreadful weather, rain and strong wind (not me).
And just who is this sane person/imposter on here. Flog and stone him/her I say.
Anyway its moan time!!! I will sh*te. Shivering and sweating. Can't afford to be ill as MrsD relies on me too much.
Onwards and upwards eh.
 
Problem I have with the time change is that I have a DAB clock radio in the bedroom - it sets the time automatically

at some point

when it decides

so I wake up and it says 6:30 - so I assume it is 7:30
get downstairs and it turns out it is 5:30
We have a DAB radio, with ours it adjusts the time as soon as you tune to a radio station, I think the clock is just a standby display which gets corrected when receiving a radio signal which contains time data.
