Ooh - did you spot a spare islawheel (and possibly an isla-rack) in there?  I was looking for it recently with no joy, when a vague memory surfaced of being full-handed and saying "I'll pick that up another time!"...

Yes to both.  Sorry be being so so crap and not getting them back to you!

Nae fret.  Will have to go for a pint at some point when Stuffs are a bit less manic!

Now that sounds like deviously cunning plan, Crinkles!

If I had had more spoons I would have come to the Rally last weekend. But I didn't.

Chilling in the sunshine on a deck in rural France. Land rover is rubbed down and the roof insulated.

Mug of tea cheese sandwich and on with the next bit...

Well that's the more blunt way of putting it but as usual he's dead right.

Trying to hit my step target for the day. I am 1500 steps short, TLD is in bed, so I am having to walk back and forward between the lounge and dining room!

Drinking mint tea in my pretty back yard with a sleeveless dress on.  Love these long warm evenings.
Milk please, no sugar.

Sitting on the deck (again) with the eleventy third mug of tea, today, in 30 plus degree heat. Waiting for the paint to dry on the Land Rover, knowing that there is at least 8 hours required between coats.

Oh, well! That's work over for the day, have to slum it in the pool I suppose . . .

Best wishes for the op, cycleman. Try not to worry too much. Maybe re-imagine it as really wild camping or something - it can't be any more uncomfortable than some of your nights in underpasses, surely!

It is not the op itself but the recovery that scares me most. Mrs cm has a suffers from panic attacks and finds day to day hard going. She also is impossible to wake once she is asleep so at night I am on my own. None of this is her fault and I expect it will all work out in the end but I am feeling uncomfortable in the tummy which I hope will not keep me from sleeping tonight  . plus I am allergic to pain and and a complete wimp . I definitely prefer wild camping even in the rain to this  :)
