It was a busy day today

but both things morning were cancelled by the other party

so I am left with just the car bloke coming to fix a rather large scratch on the rear door of the car caused by Liverpool Counsel putting a concrete column in the wrong place in a car park!!

Clearly not my fault at all!!

Apparently the window cleaners are due to day as well!

MrsP did something similar last week. Didn't notice a post until it took the cover off of the wing mirror and took a gouge out of the front wing and door panel.
The Chips away person is coming in a couple of weeks time to repair the damage.

I have cut the grass again this morning after walking the dog and getting a short bike ride in..
Now drinking tea. :cuppa:

I did try CHips Away first#when I was moving house to come here the bloke opposite backed into me by accident and I used them
The bloke that came did a damn good job

but apparently they don;t have anyone in this area at the moment so I had to find someone else

Afternoon.
Last day of holiday so finished with a loop incorporating my favourite climb here SA Batala and my favourite descent Femenia.
47 miles 2400 ft.
Total of 288miles over 5 rides within the week here
Been a superb trip.

Not a "Chips Away" story, but, an "accidental backing into story"....

When Daughter No1 passed her driving test, she came home beaming. I told her she could take my car, and drive to her friend's house, to tell her the good news /have a little boast. Her mother gave her all of the "drive carefully" advice.

Off she went. She parked outside of her friends house, and, went in to tell her friend the good news. Whilst she was in there, a neighbour reversed into my car!

Poor Daughter No1, she was totally innocent, but, mortified. Her sisters still mention it occasionally, even 38 years later!
