Happy Birthday Poacher 🎂

I will need to wash the microwave plate as my porridge boiled over slightly

I have been watching the four parter Rules of the Game with Maxine Peake so the final part is on tonight. Quite enjoyed it.

Morning all

Off for a walk down to Tesco for a bit of shopping, then into the village to the hardware store and newsagents. Might drop into the Aggi for a bap and a pint on the way back.

Do you have the same problem we have? We've got three schools by us, school run time roads practically grind to a halt

We have a similar road here. Two primary schools and a secondary school on it and now our new Aldi, a B & M store and new houses getting built. It's chaos at times and best avoided during school run times.

@PaulSB

Just to let you know, I made an error. I had read somewhere that the new Shimano 12 speed cassettes were not compatible with the 11 speed freehubs. I've checked this now with the new Shimano compatibility data, and it seems that they are retrospectively compatible.
