I started from home with 21 gears, and got to work with 1
Why? Well, quite simply, a jockey wheel fell off. And I couldn't find the bolt, so I spent ages trying to sort the chain for a single speed.
Of course, the cage fell apart before I got to work
I can't get the grut off my hands - I mst go back to having gloves in my toolkit. It's never been a bother before. Spit & leaves normally get most off, but there aren't so many leaves in Stockwell.
Still, got to work in decent time, only to discover - I'd left the jockey wheel & bushing on a wall
Got to work, and two members of staff off sick. And one disgruntled.
First call of the day? Related to a complaint.
Welcome to the week...
