I've got a turbo but haven't used it for years, in the 1990's I used to have a winter training program with the spring reliability trials as the goal,

Shovel to dig your way out of the house?A quick check shows:
Logs - plenty.
Oil - plenty.
Coal - plenty.
Electricity - latest bill paid so not going to be cut off. Although power cuts can never be ruled out in these rural wastelands.
Footwear - spikey things available for trekking to Morrisons/Aldi.
Upshot - not bothered.
I bet that went down really well…

Good day. House feels a bit chilly this morning so must be outside.
Today? Did a mountain of washing and ironing yesterday. I'll do the housework ahead of Christmas. There's also the loft room which doubles as Mrs P's sewing room - you can imagine - and a spare bedroom. If #1 son comes for Christmas this needs sorting. I offered but my help was refused.
Good news! Putting the washing away I found Mrs P's Christmas present in my sock drawer.
Bad news! I didn't know I'd lost it. 🤔
The Escape Artist with David Tennant - excellent TV for anyone who has Amazon Prime. We have Prime because it comes "free" with Mrs P's subscription to Amazon for "free" year round delivery.

Good morning all from a grey and cloudy Barnet.
Rain is forecast for later today.
Today's mission is to put the full set of panniers on the bike and cycle 8 miles each way to the nearest Morrisons. The bottled ale selection is so much better, and cheaper than the other supermarkets that are nearer. It also gets me out and about for another ride, with some weight training thrown in.
