Well, its like this, I went to another localish village, as I had heard rumour of a Friday 'Bananaclub',  but alas nufink.   As I was leaving the village, I rode over a long busy bridge, and there, in the middle of the road was a thin blue carrier bag, with summit protuding, so I investigates I does when traffic allowed.  Inside were 2 freshly made spicy chicken salad wraps, wrapped up in tin foil, and

^^^this.     Now bearing in mind how busy the road was, the fact that there was a 'deli type' snack wagon about 1/2 mile away, and the snack bar was not even broken, never mind run over, I decided that it was indeed fresh and wholesum.  So I snaffled it away,and found a lovely riverside bench and munched away with my coffee at hand.  Very tasty indeed, if a tad filling.

Now then, for a nanosecond ( ok may be a few nanoseconds) i was pretty excited , but alas short lived.
Interestingly this 50 Koruna note , is actually worthless, as the 50 note was removed from circulation in 2011, and replaced with a coin,  currently worth about £1.50 ish.      This begs the question, as to what a small value forrin note, that has been out of circulation 12 years, was doing in a countryside pull in ( COUGH ).

Strange.  shame they are both odd rears, but I managed to snaffle them away into my Carradice, should anyone want them?

Verily the gods of velocipedic serendipity have you well and truly marked.

On today's ride I mostly found the contents of people's recycling bins.  Interspersed with bits of tree.

And a ‘very, most useful’ pair of cycling gloves, in M flavour that almost fit perfectly, except for the index fingers that seemed too short. So when I got home I turned the gloves inside out, and found that there was extra ‘gear change’ reinforcing that had been added, meaning a large wadge  of surplus material to be trimmed back. This I did with sharp pointy skissors, and now they fits proper, they does.

What's this?  An ICE branded bidon in the gutter?

(click to show/hide)

I deduce from the sticker and the muck that it was dropped by a tricyclist with a power-hungry hearing aid, at some point before yesterday's thunderstorm. 

Very considerate of them to write my name on it like that...

After glancing at the first image I was convinced that cycleman had gone before you.  🤣

I can't afford to own a ice bidon

Nor can I.  Got a Sigg one which cost me 50p in a charity shop.

That's making my teeth itch just looking at it.

Evidently someone had the same reaction.

I got my eggs mixed up when I took the photo, and thought that someone had perhaps opened it for the toy and discarded the chocolate.

[Basil]

I'm amazed to see how much of it they had to eat before realising how shit it was.

[Gattopardo]

Is it the white chocolate

[Andy W]

Tch! There it is.
