Blimey, sorry to hear that. Get well soon. Sorry I can’t offer any useful advice.

You should have been here in 1773 when a handful of people stole 8,000 acres of common land in full view of the people who had rights to it!

I’ll be there selling Project Hamsterley T shirts. All profits to the Trailblazers’ trailbuilding fund. Stop me and buy one!
Good luck to everyone riding btw. It’s a tough day out.

Good title!

Flanders and Swann – At the Drop of a Hat.

Hi there, people, I’m Bobby Brown.

^yes, that’s just another symptom of depression. Nothing to worry about!

Miracle used to mean an inexplicable event requiring divine intervention. Now it is used mainly to describe any medical cure.

Presses like button.

Well that’s very sad. I spent a very pleasant hour interviewing him for the radio station I worked for at the time and he was very kind, and he autographed a book for me and even did a little doodle for me so I own an original Baxendale. RIP

Most of my life I never even knew I was anxious and depressed. I just really believed that school/life/work/everyone/everything and myself were rubbish. That was incredibly debilitating and led to me walking out of jobs and eventually my career. Mind, I wouldn’t go back!

“Does everybody else just go round smiling and pretend?”

Nobody really wants to hear the truth, they only ask out of convention. I have found it really important to have someone who I can turn to when the bad thoughts are crowding in and say I’m not feeling well. In my case it’s my wife but it doesn’t have to be someone intimate – I’m sure if I spoke to my cbt therapist it would be the same. I don’t even need to go into detail because I know the bad thoughts sre rubbish; but if I can say I’ve had suicidal thoughts then I always feel better.

So the Dutch have it all wrong, scotroutes?

Our neighbour used to come and feed our cat for us when we were away. Since the cat was put down, she hasn’t offered once.

Sounds good. Is it legal, do you think?

Edit!

Shouldn’t that PSA have come from Pip Binners?

My body is a temple. Shirley Temple.

Terrible.

Thanks for doing all the right things.

we’re off to Skye on Sunday too. Taking the mountain bike and the road bike!

The Six Bunny Wunnies Freak Out.

When I was a kid, if I held my nose and blew with my mouth shut, the air escaped through my eye. I seem to have lost that talent now.

A friend of mine did a spell in prison for refusing to pay the part of his taxes spent on the military. He was a baker and offered to pay it in bread rolls.

I think it’s also worth noting that the reason only 4 people were murdered yesterday is because of our countries hard restriction on guns.

But in a society where everyone has cars and they are so easy to obtain, we have to expect these things to happen.

11.5 litres! That will do your power to weight ratio a favour. Keep on trucking!

Winter. Greenwich Mean Time.

^^ I wonder how many motorist s would see a group such as B in the diagram above and say, “they were riding three abreast you know!”

Day 22 won’t load for me, TPT. It feels like I lost a limb…

Eeeeeeh!

Give me a birthday mention tomorrow!

A jeep. It was from Hare’s Cycles of Livingstone Road in Bath and was my 9th birthday present. I remember it wasn’t there in time for my actual birthday because a flu epidemic meant that the bike shop was shut for a week.
