Getting old but not past it
Mine needs doing as well. I wonder if it knows it is time to go to sleep till next spring now and stop growing.

a cold grey old day here in wrongwheelland....not that its getting to me though i have ordered a couple of Himars missile's Thanks Mo I think your right that ive been sent a road bike wheel. When i have transport again i shall use bike shops in Inverness and save myself a lot of hassle. One dealership sells Trek so willl get a FX 3 [in red..nice] when i upgrade.Morning. It’s dark and windy and pouring so not sure why I’m up.
@Chief Broom It seems to be much more difficult finding wheels for hybrids as I think most off the peg wheels seem to be for road bikes as you have found out. Tredz should have known that so a bad mark to them

Right - I'm up
Weird thing happened
went to the Dr. with my wife yesterday to see if she could get a face-to-face appointment to discuss several health problems
Got one for 9:10 this morning!!!!
WHich shouldn;t be weird - but hearing what others say it is nowadays!
In other news - got an alerts from Credit Karma because
shock horror
my credit rating had DROPPED
I clearly must panic immediately
looks like it has dropped because my credit card balance has dropped. It get s paid off every month but as I have been away on holiday for 2 weeks I have not used it as much
resulting in in the credit rating dropping
Of course - the credit rating is pure fiction anyway - I used to work on the computer systems for a big company and could see the way the company used credit data - I could even sit in and see the screen the users were seeing - and the credit rating was not even a thing
Apparently I need a higher credit limit and I need to borrow some money!!!
what a load of *******!

Back from a wet walk. It's not cold though. Just the riverside trail. Quite pleasant just sauntering along listening to the water and the birds.
Yet another email from Ovo about my meter reading dispute. Will these idiots ever get things sorted out. There is a whole forum on Facebook with nearly 8,000 people with all their complaints about them. They are a total shambles.

I read of one visitor to the Poison Garden asking the guide if there was a Garden Shop 😮

Well that interesting
Got my Spar visit done and paid my tv licence.
Saw something I thought very funny. 2 young girls in school uniform.....maybe 13/14 years old. Legs like "knots in cotton" and skirts rolled up as far as they dared. One of them continuously checking that she wasn't showing too much.
Can't recall last time I saw that (perhaps my daughter 35+ years ago, when she thought me and Sue hadn't noticed).
Come on Mo and Welshie.... be honest here🙂.

It does make me laugh when you see these young 'uns wearing the elasticated belts that barely cover their (insert as applicable), then spend all the time pulling them down. JUST WEAR SOMETHING LONGER THEN!!!
