From my Facebook page this afternoon, Lol!

A pensioner drove his brand new BMW to 100 mph, looking in his rear view mirror, he saw a police car behind him. He floored it to 140 , then 150, ... then 155, ... Suddenly he thought,
"I'm too old for this nonsense !"
So he pulled over to the side of the road and waited for the police car to catch up with him.
The officer walked up to him, looked at his watch and said,
"Sir, my shift ends in ten minutes. Today is Friday and I'm taking off for the weekend with my family. If you can give me a good reason that I've never heard before, why you were speeding... I'll let you go."
The Man looked very seriously at the police man, and replied :-
"Years ago, my wife ran off with a policeman, I thought you were bringing her back." !!!
The Cop left saying,
" Have a good day, Sir "...

Hospital visiting later.
I wasn't going to post this as its generally a light hearted section. But.....I will.
MrsD has been (and is) quite poorly. 5 days ago I was told to "prepare for the worst" as her organs were shutting down.
She does seem to be rallying a bit but that does fluxuate. I will see what this afternoon brings.


I will not be bringing this up all the time.

wishing you the strength to cope with it Dave , we feel for you

Given those bolts are 12mm, what's the size of the container you're using, and how's it held there?

Sadly the cycling is looking pathetic though. I just can’t seem to get back into it.

Telly is crap tonight so I might watch another few episodes of Wire in the Blood. Finished series 1 last night.
