Thursday will involve shenanigans

[briantrumpet]

Morning. It still is, just.

Had to commute by car today, as I had to call in for a while you wait estimate for an insurance repair and the repairer is close to the office.
A journey of (checks google maps) 11 minutes if I'd set off now, was 35 minutes. Gelderd Road was completely chocka and not moving. Horrible.

WFH tomorrow

Just occasionally I have to use the car to get into Exeter, and absolutely hate it, for similar reasons. I sit there thinking "I'd have arrived already if I were on the bike", getting crosser and crosser.

Yep, a typical commute for me would be 17-19 minutes on the bike. Car typically varies from about the same time to 25, but when the Armley Gyratory and Ingram Distributer snarl up, they don't mess about, and then you're screwed! It was Leeds traffic that made me get on a bike again after 35 years!

The only shenanigans here will be making a large batch of curried carrot and parsnip soup. It doth tiddle down outside, and looks like it's going to carry on doing so most of the day.

Anyone else do Latin at school, and can't shake it off?

Romanes eunt domus?

Moaning/Morning Peeps,

Aliquid linguae Latinae didici, sed pleraque non haeserunt.

Down the street, turn left at the puddle of vomit, and its a hundred yards down on the left, just opposite the abandoned sofa.

from my ancient school days...

latin is a language

it killed the ancient romans
and now it's killing me
