Just had an email from the hotel we are staying in on Thursday
giving directions to another hotel that we have stayed in before
but that had gone downhil last time
AND we rang when we started looking for something in that area and know that they do not really cater for my diet stuff
which was confusing
checked everything and previous emails were ffor/from the one we wanted
anyway - rang them and it turns out they are "sister hotels" (i.e. they have taken over the one that had gone downhill last time)
and "they computer system has just been upgraded"
seems that we are fine - their emails are screwed up
I suspect a manger/owner is not making a nasty phone call to an IT support company somewhere!!!
(which is nice - many years ago I used to get calls like that
Note - it was never my fault!
I wish this to be clear - my programs never had bugs
"features" yea - but never bugs - my boss made it clear that this was a department policy)

Just back from a pleasant walk. Legs are behaving today which made it easier. Some days, when my balance is not good, when crossing a road, I have to wait until there is absolutely no traffic either way..... today was much better. I count my blessings.

Getting an increasing urge for a Honda Cub or Super Cub of some flavour in my life.

Just read about a lass in S. America who paid for a Bungee Jump off a bridge.
The staff did everything right except, when they 'Supermanned' her over the edge, they forgot one important thing.
She wasn't attached to the elasticated rope!

I had to Google this. Interesting. May I ask why? Ease of getting through traffic?
I had a 50. Red and white. 53 years ago. 😲

Good evening. A grey but warm day has evolved into a glorious warm evening. I have a G&T while sat on the bench outside our house. Deliciously cool but looking at the garden bathed in evening sunlight.
Ssssshhhh. Don't say a word. Mrs P is watching the Queens final on catch-up. She doesn't know the result. There will be hell to pay if any of you breathe a word.
I'm outside because of the tennis. Mrs P keeps commenting. If I don't respond she's unhappy. Zoning out isn't a plan. Outside is OK.

I dont know. I've always liked them and they'd be ideal for tooling reliably and economically around toon, and being big wheelers they behave more like a motorbike than a scooter.
Iirc there were 2 Honda 50s, a standard one and a sports one with a racing style.

Had breakfast and did some watering and then the washing up and got out for a gentle pootle around the fens for a chilled 60 odd km's.
Back home for a coffee and sandwich and then in to the centre to mainly have a nose around the antiques centre by the river ;was a Jaguar club meet on the Palace Green in front of the Cathedral with mostly newer Jags but there was three E-Types.Actually parked up near the church was a new-sh Maserati which imo looked nicer then the newer Jags. Also spotted near the market place was a 60's or 70's Mustang with original paint (there was a few rusty dings here and there) ,was an auto though.
Back home for Broad Bean pasta and we picked up a bottle of red at the Co Op so will have that later while watching some YouTube stuff.
Big fen skies over the New Bedford river at Welney. (some on here may now this from Fridays rides).
And cows mooching about on the other side of the bridge.
