Getting old but not past it
Decided to go round the Orme in Llandudno this morning while my wife was working. Got up early, had some porridge and honey for breakfast and waited about 1.5 hours before I set off. So far so good.
Got the bike out after checking tyre pressure and set off.
A few hundred metres down the road, I realised I forgot my sunglasses so back home I went to pick them up and set off again. A few more metres down the road, realised I forgot to shut the bathroom window so back I went, put glasses down on kitchen table and shut the window. Off I went again until I remembered I forgot my glasses so turned round and off back home. On the way back, the chain jammed so got home, fixed the chain, got on bike, clipped shoes in and turned bike round on the drive and promptly fell off on hard concrete, bruising my leg and elbow. Went in to clean up my bruises and set off again forgetting my glasses... again. Turned round to go back home to pick up damned glasses and off I went again and disappeared in the sunshine this time. In the end, I didn't go round the Orme but changed my route. I think dementia is beginning to set in!
