I have a pair of Anker “ Soundcore “ earbuds. They’re very good, there’s an dedicated hearing test facility in the Soundcore app that iterates through a range of frequencies and produces a sonogram of your hearing.

I have the Soundcore Life P2 cannot recall now if they are the standard or the mini, I paid around £35 direct from Soundcore website.

Only gloom on the horizon is stent removal tomorrow pm - I want it out but it's the getting it out that is bothering me. :sad:


Getting it out is a piece of cake....but I do recommend that you take a piece of 2" x 1" block of wood held firmly in your mouth!....

.....Only teasing hope it goes well :okay:

Self-rotating socks! :wacko: Do any of you suffer from this bizarre problem? :whistle:

I always put my socks on properly - bottom of socks on soles of feet, heels of feet in heels of socks. An hour later, the socks have somehow turned themselves round so the heels are on top! I have no idea how or why this is happening...

I don't remember this being a big issue for me in the past. Is it another one of those strange things that only happen to older people? :laugh:

If any older persons like me are finding TV generally with a few exceptions pretty average.here’s one that has kept me binge watching.Departure on Sky Witness

Just finished watching series one Will follow up with series two.

I'd agree. Mrs P will watch anything as she seems to need to have the telly on for the entire evening. It's a bit of a taboo subject in our house but some of it is shite. I often fall asleep or read.

Me? I do find things on Netflix I enjoy, often foreign made and/or foreign language. If Mrs P is out for the evening I always leave the telly off. I really enjoy the quiet.

Same with early mornings. No noise and a cup of coffee. Heaven.

Good morning all.
Weather appears to be ok......no rain forecast.
Our gipsy travelling friends all left last night.
They were encamped 100 mtrs from our fence but I have to say caused no problems noise wise.
I will walk round later to see what they have left us :rolleyes:.
Today (if MrsD) rises in time I am taking her to some shops.....it takes her some time to get her legs working.
See you later^_^

A beautiful but chilly start to the day in my little bit of heaven - known by most as Lancashire. Good day to you all.

Facebook has been chaos since last night. In FB groups posts are coming up with oldest first no matter what one does. Lots of images from 2013 when the cycle club group started, some amusing, some a touch embarrassing. Lots of folk asking WTF is going on under the assumption group admins can fix everything! :eek::laugh:

Gravel ride today which is going to be simply fantastic. Sun is shining, no traffic, very few people, no breeze. My buddy has put together the route most of which I haven't ridden before and we will stop at a new, for me, cafe. I live about 500 metres from the Leeds Liverpool canal, he lives half a mile from it. I can ride to his place traffic free and ride home again afterwards. Excellent as at the end of a gravel ride I truly resent having to use tarmac to get home. Time to make a drink, sandwich and check the bike over.

Be good :hello:
